10 April - national forecast presented by Honor Criswick
Transcript
00:00Hello there, good afternoon. Northeastern areas are going to see a much brighter and warmer day ahead, particularly if you compare it to the cloudy and cool days we've had recently.
00:08And it's all because this area of high pressure that's been giving us the settled conditions recently has just shifted its way slightly southward.
00:15So we're starting to see a change in our wind direction, more of a northwesterly flow moving into northern areas.
00:20So we're just about getting rid of that easterly flow that's brought in the cloud from the North Sea.
00:24But at times we could still see it today across east Anglian coast, parts of Kent as well.
00:28Now eventually through the rest of the week into the weekend, this area of high pressure will continue to sink its way southwards.
00:34But that means a change is on its way and it's going to allow Atlantic mobility to take hold once again, dragging in some frontal systems at first across the north and becoming more widespread into Saturday.
00:43Some more cloud, perhaps some rain and also some showers.
00:46But before we talk about that, let's take a look at this weekend.
00:49So it was quite a cloudy start across the southeastern half of the UK.
00:53That cloud is burning back now towards coastal areas, but it's likely to linger through much of the afternoon across east Anglia, parts of Kent as well, mainly around coastal areas.
01:02And we've also got some more cloud pushing into the northern coasts of Scotland too.
01:06But elsewhere, there's going to be plenty of clear skies, wall-to-wall sunshine and feeling warm in that sunshine too.
01:12Particularly across northeastern parts of Scotland, northeastern parts of England, almost a 10 degree difference here if you compare temperatures to yesterday.
01:20But across central and southern areas, a slightly cooler day compared to yesterday, but it is still going to be feeling warm in the light winds.
01:26Now, as we progress through into the evening, once again, there's going to be plenty of clear skies.
01:32So turning chilly once again, still a chance of some rural frost in places, but it's not going to be turning quite as cold as it has done of late.
01:38We're still going to continue to see more cloud pushing to northern areas of Scotland, perhaps some light drizzle across Shetland by the time you reach the morning.
01:46And it's also likely that we'll see some mist and fog patches towards dawn too.
01:50So lows of around four to five Celsius, perhaps a touch lower in rural spots under clear skies.
01:55So a chilly start, some mist and fog, but that should clear away quite readily through the morning.
02:01There's a chance we could see some low cloud just skirt southern coasts and still plenty of cloud pushing into the far north of Scotland.
02:07Once again, some drizzly outbreaks for Shetland and turning a bit breezier too in the far north of Scotland under those cloudier skies.
02:13But once again elsewhere, another dry day, wall-to-wall sunshine and it's going to be a warmer day across the board really as we head into tomorrow.
02:21Highs of 22, possibly 23 Celsius across England and Wales and even Scotland, we could see another 20 or 21 degrees Celsius.
02:29Now, as we progress into the weekend, as I mentioned, there is a change on its way.
02:34It's going to be warm to start, but cooling off by the time we reach Sunday, likely that we'll see more cloud and rain and showers.
02:40And some of this could be heavy at times.
02:41But if you want more information on this weekend's weather, we can catch Aidan later here on YouTube.
02:47That's it from me. Bye-bye.
