Good evening. It was a cold, even frosty start to the Bank Holiday | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
weekend but for most of us day one of three has been dry. We are going | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
to see changes, the first of those changes spilling across Scotland and | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
Northern Ireland as outbreaks of rain drifting through the night | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
Getting into parts of northern England as well. With the cloud and | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
rain it will not be as cold as last night, temperatures staying in | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
double figures in many cities. In the south, clear skies once more. | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
Like last night, it is going to be cold. Parts of the countryside will | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
be down to zero, maybe -1, as we start Sunday. A chilly start. | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
Generally a fine day was quite a bit of sunshine. Elsewhere, sunshine in | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
short supply to start with. Dull, damp morning. It will turn brighter | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
in some areas as the day goes on. | :06:01. | :06:01. |
