00:00Hello there, welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office.
00:04As we go through the next few days, the weather is certainly going to be much more changeable
00:08than what we have been used to over the last few weeks, with rain already moving in across
00:13many western parts as we go through the course of tonight, and actually reaching all areas
00:18as we start Sunday morning, but probably not too much in the east, but still a few splashes
00:24I think here.
00:25But with the cloud and rain around, it'll be a milder night for most of us compared to
00:29recent nights.
00:30Exceptions up across the far west of Scotland, we could just see a touch of frost here as
00:35we start Sunday morning, but elsewhere generally looking at temperatures not much lower than
00:39about 5 to 7 degrees.
00:41So overall as we start Sunday across England and Wales, more in the way of cloud in the
00:46sky, with some outbreaks of rain continuing to clear their way eastwards.
00:51More of a cheery start across Scotland and Northern Ireland, but even here as the day
00:55goes on we start to see some showers moving from the west, and really for most of us into
01:00the afternoon it's going to be a mixture of bright spells and a scattering of showers.
01:04Some of these showers will be on the heavy side, potentially the odd rumble of thunder, and
01:08maybe turning a little bit wintry across the mountains of Scotland.
01:13For all of us, temperatures down on recent days, generally reaching the low teens, could still
01:18just hang on to a little bit of warmth in the south east, could see highs here reaching
01:22around 16 or 17 degrees.
01:26Into the evening hours, for a lot of England and Wales actually it should turn fairly dry,
01:31with some lengthy clear spells developing.
01:33But for Scotland and Northern Ireland, an increase in wind, with some further outbreaks
01:37of rain working their way in from the Atlantic.
01:39So quite a wet and blustery night for some parts here, but that will help keep temperatures
01:44up here around 6 to 7 degrees as our lows, but under the clearest skies further south east
01:50we could see a touch of frost as we start the new working week on Monday.
01:55So Monday itself for many parts of East Anglia, south east England actually, it should be a
01:59fairly reasonable day with some spells of sunshine.
02:02And elsewhere we will see further outbreaks of rain move in, interspersed by maybe a few
02:07brighter moments from time to time, and still fairly blustery out towards the west.
02:12So if you're stuck under the cloud and rain and in that breeze, it's going to be fairly
02:16disappointing compared to recently, but still potentially up to about 16 or 17 degrees in
02:22the south eastern corner.
02:24Well if you want more detailed weather information for the weather where you are over the next
02:29couple of days, you can always check out our website or our app.
02:32But from me for now, take care and I'll see you again soon.
