Hello. We are definitely in the middle of a chilly week. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:05 | |
There are signs that early next week should be a little milder. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:09 | |
Milder, but not necessarily dry. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:12 | |
There will be some wet weather sweeping across the country. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
There is a bit of rain about tonight. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
An area of low pressure is drifting down from the North | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
so it is bringing with it a chilly air. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:22 | |
Because it is cloudy across northern Britain, | 0:00:22 | 0:00:26 | |
it won't be as cold here first thing in the morning. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:28 | |
Further south, sunny start but a really chilly | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
start across East Anglia and southeastern parts of the Midlands. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
Through the day expect showers. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:35 | |
Maybe parts of eastern England will stay dry | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
but elsewhere there will be showers, a brisk breeze | 0:00:38 | 0:00:41 | |
and it will still be chilly even when the sun is out. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
Temperatures only in the mid-to-high teens across the South East. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:47 | |
Heavy showers later across North East Scotland, | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
where temperatures might not reach 13 degrees. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
Through the evening and night, the showers will push further south. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:56 | |
More cloud here during the course of Thursday night so it won't be | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
as cold here, but again, further north will see clearing skies | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
and again, certainly in rural areas, will be well down into single figures | 0:01:03 | 0:01:07 | |
as we start Friday. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
For Friday, we're back to the set-up we have had for most of this | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
week, high-pressure to the West, low pressure to the East, drawing down | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
northerly winds and also bringing down a scattering of showers. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:19 | |
Outbreaks of rain early on from that weather front across the South East | 0:01:19 | 0:01:24 | |
and then we are left with a mix of sunshine and showers through Friday. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:28 | |
Probably not too many for Wales and South West England. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
Northern Ireland, too, having a largely dry afternoon on Friday. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
But because we are drawing down the air from the North, | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |
temperatures continue to be below average, for many in the mid-teens. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:39 | |
Into the weekend, this area of high pressure is trying to move in | 0:01:39 | 0:01:43 | |
but it is a slow process. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
The low is still nearby so there will still be showers, | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
particularly across eastern parts of the UK. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
I fancy for many, | 0:01:51 | 0:01:52 | |
certainly across the West, it will be a dry and bright day on Saturday | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
with sunny spells and, after a chilly start, | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
those temperatures may be getting up to 19 or 20 degrees. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
Really cold start on Sunday | 0:02:00 | 0:02:03 | |
but Sunday is the best bet for a dry day this weekend. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
Behind me you will notice a band of blue, | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
that is a weather system starting to approach. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
We will see serious changes in the broader weather patterns | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
through the weekend. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
For much of this week, the jet stream has been fairly weak | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
and diving to the south of the UK, allowing the chilly air | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
to bring a mixture of sunshine and showers. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
The change takes place, as we see the jet becomes more zonal, that is | 0:02:24 | 0:02:28 | |
what we call it when it fires in from the west and starts to pick up. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
It may not be in exactly this position | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
but it will be increasing, and when it is like this it tends | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
to drag in areas of low pressure from the Atlantic. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:41 | |
That is what we are going to see as we go into Monday. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
That rain we saw edging into western areas on Sunday is this | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
low-pressure system which looks like smothering much of the UK on Monday. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:52 | |
It may not rain all day, there will be brighter spells, | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
and temperatures may be a little bit higher as we start to see | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
the influence of those low pressures bringing slightly milder | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
air from the Atlantic. That is the set-up for a good part of next week. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:05 | |
It looks like low pressures will be close by or just to the | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
north of the UK. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:09 | |
High pressure to the South | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
so we will have westerly breezes rather than the northerly | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
breezes which is why it will be turning showery with fairly | 0:03:14 | 0:03:18 | |
brisk winds, but it also, crucially, won't be as cold, | 0:03:18 | 0:03:22 | |
particularly not at night. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:24 | |
