you in just the second. But here is the outlook. On Sunday, we have grey

skies and a bit of drizzle, too. Good evening. You may have had the

latest from the Met Office about the rainfall we have had this winter,

the wettest winter on record. It is sometimes difficult to visualise the

numbers. Let me explain how much rain we had. If you think about a

stretch of land across the UK, we had about half a metre of rainfall

falling so far this winter. That is, if the water didn't sleep into the

ground. We have a huge amount of water brought in by areas of low

pressure. 15 of them have been big storms, causing lots of damage. As

far as the shorts is concerned, it is just a breeze. We have a few

shells on the horizon and that is pretty much it. You can see where

the weather is coming from the moment. It has come in from the

Atlantic. Just a few scatter shower words here and there. It is going to

be a bit colder tonight compared to last night. Last night tempered as

were about seven or eight degrees, tonight they could be frost across

eastern areas of the country. -- temperatures. The showers will

continue through tomorrow morning into the afternoon. Most of them

will fall across Northern Ireland and Scotland. Here, gale force winds

are in fact blowing. The showers will drift eastwards through the

day. Mostly dry weather in the north-east. The same weather

patterns continue into Friday evening. Don't get caught in some of

those hefty showers. The weekend, not a stormy as last weekend but it

is still going to be a windy one. We are going to start on a bright

note, especially Saturday. It will be mostly bright. It will be windy.

Then, on Sunday, more and more of us will get the rain. This is the

forecast for Saturday. This is the area of low pressure that will be

increasing our wind, cloud and rain. That translates to 50 mph

winds in western coast. It will be June I for most of the country. The

rain gets into Northern Ireland and Scotland. -- it will be try for most

of the country. By Sunday, the rain will slip eastwards so there will be

some heavy rain around Cumbria,
