Good evening. Windy weekend seemed to be very fashionable at the

moment. This one will be bang on trend. The wind is only part of a

very active weather story. These stories usually involve low-pressure

systems. There is one to the south of the UK, and another one brewing

in the mid Atlantic. The satellite picture shows the cloud

approaching. Ahead of it, we have clearer skies across northern

showers. Northern Scotland will not get the rain until late on, but as

it arrives, we will see snow over the Grampians. With those strong

winds, it is not the data head to the mountains. Heavy showers for

Northern Ireland north-west England. By the afternoon, something a little

bit brighter and across northern England and the Midlands. A few

showers getting chased through by those winds. The winds will

strengthen, particularly here, South Wales and south-west England getting

very blustery through the afternoon and evening. Gusts of up to 50 miles

an hour or 60. Strong winds and bonfires do not mix. They're that

wind and showers pretty much wherever you are across the UK. It

will stay quite wet across north-eastern areas on Saturday

night as that low pulls away. More rain late in the day on Sunday, but

for most of us on Sunday, we are between weather systems. It will be

blustery with showers, but many of us will see some sunshine before

that next area of cloud arrives. That rain could
