Hello. Despite the promising start to summer, | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
this month may turn out to be the coolest August in over 20 years. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
Part of the responsibility for that is down to ex-Hurricane Bertha, | 0:00:09 | 0:00:13 | |
which shook up the weather patterns across the UK, | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
plunging them into a much cooler regime. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
Another ex-hurricane, Cristobal, | 0:00:17 | 0:00:18 | |
currently pushing across the North Atlantic, | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
may be about to change that. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:22 | |
Not at the moment, as we're still stuck with | 0:00:22 | 0:00:24 | |
a west to northwesterly regime as we go into the start of the weekend. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
Weather fronts clearing away from the south coast early on. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:29 | |
A lot of dry and bright weather here. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
Those west to northwesterly winds | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
bringing showers across western areas initially, | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
pushing eastwards on the breeze. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:36 | |
But certainly fewer around than we saw on Friday. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
Most of you will have, if not a completely dry day, | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
a largely dry day. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:43 | |
A few exceptions - northern Scotland. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:44 | |
Even into the afternoon, heavy showers there, | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
particularly to the northeast, the odd rumble of thunder. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
One or two showers into Northern Ireland. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
Southern Scotland best for some of those drier moments. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
Same, too, in northern England, | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
although to the northeast | 0:00:56 | 0:00:57 | |
we could see one or two heavier showers late on. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
In the wind that we have, we'll have showers | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
running from North Wales | 0:01:01 | 0:01:02 | |
through into the Home Counties during the afternoon. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
Good gaps between them, | 0:01:05 | 0:01:06 | |
and south of that across southern counties of England, | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
it should be fine and bright. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
Temperatures across the country, mid to high teens, if not low 20s. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
The showers will generally fade away as we go through the night | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
and into Sunday. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:16 | |
One or two spots of rain in the west. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
A little bit cooler night | 0:01:18 | 0:01:19 | |
than the night that takes us into Saturday morning. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
But a fine, bright, pleasant start to your Sunday. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
That's because we've got this ridge of high pressure with us. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
By this stage, ex-Hurricane Cristobal getting closer to Iceland. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
But for us, high pressure means a mostly a dry day in store. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:36 | |
There could be a few mist and fog patches around first thing. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
Weather fronts trying to push in from the west, spreading some high clouds. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |
There could be hazy sunshine at best across western areas | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
and then later on some patchy rain. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
Northern Ireland and into the western fringes as the breeze picks up. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
But with good, dry and bright weather elsewhere a pleasant Sunday. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
17-22 Celsius, the high. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
Weather fronts may push across us on Sunday night into Monday. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
Again, linked to Cristobal, but compared to Bertha, | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
which brought a change for the cooler, Cristobal's pushing north, | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
helping to induce this build of high pressure from the southwest. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
It's going to be a gradual process into the start of next week. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
We've still got those weak weather fronts | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
which come to lie across some southern parts | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
of England and Wales. Fairly cloudy. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:16 | |
Some damp and drizzly weather, but brightening up through the afternoon. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
Elsewhere largely dry and sunny day in store. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
As this area of high pressure continues to build into Tuesday, | 0:02:22 | 0:02:25 | |
the weather fronts become less of a feature. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
There will be areas of cloud around. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:29 | |
It's not a completely sunny high by any means. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
Once the sunshine breaks through with light winds, | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
we're starting to bring warmer air our way. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
Temperatures day on day will start to creep up. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:41 | |
Showers few and far between. Most will be dry on Tuesday. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
And that trend continues into Wednesday. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
By this stage, the high pressure to the east of us. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
And with light winds, a few mist and fog patches expected | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
first thing in the morning. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
One or two showers possible across northeastern parts of the UK | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
and one or two to the northwest. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
But in the sunshine and light winds | 0:02:58 | 0:02:59 | |
we're now getting most of us close to 20, if not above. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
And the trend continues from Thursday into Sunday, | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
as we go into the following weekend. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:08 | |
High pressure to the southeast of us, dragging in that warmer air. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
But low pressure to the northwest. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
There is a sign that low pressure could get very close by. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
It will come into play at some point during this period. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
While we do start warm with some good dry and sunny weather, | 0:03:18 | 0:03:22 | |
there is a brief wetter spell on the way. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:24 | |
Exactly when that occurs | 0:03:24 | 0:03:25 | |
is the biggest uncertainty at the moment, | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
but it looks like it will be brief | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 | |
and once it clears away | 0:03:29 | 0:03:30 | |
we could be back to the sunshine and warmth again. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
What is it? | 0:03:36 | 0:03:37 | |
That? That's a monkey. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
This is a parrot. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
Where are they going to live? | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
Your George has finally cracked. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
Wow! He looked right at me. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
George, what's going on? | 0:03:48 | 0:03:49 |
