Hello. With a strong jet stream overhead the UK,

0:00:030:00:05

we'll see turbulent weather over the next few days.

0:00:050:00:08

Very mild just now.

0:00:080:00:10

Not often that you can have breakfast alfresco in November

0:00:100:00:13

as one of our viewers did in the north-east of England.

0:00:130:00:17

Unusually warm for the time of year.

0:00:170:00:18

Record-breaking start to Tuesday.

0:00:180:00:20

That's because the air's been dragged

0:00:200:00:22

from the mid-Atlantic.

0:00:220:00:23

By the afternoon,

0:00:230:00:24

temperatures peaked in Murlough

0:00:240:00:26

at 19 degrees.

0:00:260:00:27

But a big shock on the way

0:00:270:00:29

for the end of the week.

0:00:290:00:30

We switch from south-westerlies

0:00:300:00:31

to north-westerly winds.

0:00:310:00:33

By then, temperatures well down

0:00:330:00:35

on what we have now,

0:00:350:00:36

even a little bit below

0:00:360:00:37

what it should be for the time of year.

0:00:370:00:39

Later this week, we're watching

0:00:390:00:40

clumps of cloud.

0:00:400:00:41

This is Kate,

0:00:410:00:42

a developing hurricane

0:00:420:00:44

which will influence our weather slightly

0:00:440:00:46

into the weekend.

0:00:460:00:47

This massive cloud

0:00:470:00:48

could be our first named storm

0:00:480:00:50

of the season.

0:00:500:00:51

Whereas this one is what we've got

0:00:510:00:52

for Wednesday.

0:00:520:00:54

Bringing rain to areas that don't need it.

0:00:540:00:56

Saturated ground.

0:00:560:00:57

We could see further flooding

0:00:570:00:58

in parts of north England

0:00:580:01:00

and north-west Wales.

0:01:000:01:01

The south of it, lots of cloud.

0:01:010:01:02

Pretty mild day, 16 or 17 degrees.

0:01:020:01:04

A few sunny breaks,

0:01:040:01:05

but the cloud could bring rain

0:01:050:01:06

or drizzle at times.

0:01:060:01:07

To the north of our weather front,

0:01:070:01:09

it'll be fresher than recent days,

0:01:090:01:10

but at least dry and sunny...

0:01:100:01:12

Until the afternoon in Northern Ireland.

0:01:120:01:14

Some heavy rain for short moments.

0:01:140:01:16

A burst of heavy rain also working

0:01:160:01:17

across Scotland with some gusty winds.

0:01:170:01:19

But it eventually clears,

0:01:190:01:20

Wednesday into Thursday,

0:01:200:01:22

and things quieten down.

0:01:220:01:23

Not much rain in the chart

0:01:230:01:24

by Thursday morning,

0:01:240:01:25

but it will feel colder out there,

0:01:250:01:27

even if temperatures

0:01:270:01:29

are still above average.

0:01:290:01:30

Into Thursday,

0:01:300:01:32

we do have this brief ridge of high pressure,

0:01:320:01:34

next to this developing system.

0:01:340:01:35

This will become our first named storm.

0:01:350:01:38

Enjoy the dry weather while it lasts

0:01:380:01:40

on Thursday morning.

0:01:400:01:41

A bit of mist and fog.

0:01:410:01:42

Dry and brightest for longest

0:01:420:01:44

towards the east,

0:01:440:01:45

turning cloudier across the west

0:01:450:01:47

later on.

0:01:470:01:48

Outbreaks of rain begin, some heavy,

0:01:480:01:50

and stronger winds, touching gale force,

0:01:500:01:52

if not severe gale force,

0:01:520:01:53

by the day's end

0:01:530:01:54

to the north-west of the UK.

0:01:540:01:55

And it's all down to our first

0:01:550:01:57

named storm of the season - Abigail.

0:01:570:01:58

It's passing between the UK and Iceland.

0:01:580:02:00

The strongest winds will be closest

0:02:000:02:02

to the southern flank

0:02:020:02:03

of that low pressure system,

0:02:030:02:05

so parts of north and west Scotland

0:02:050:02:07

will be hardest hit.

0:02:070:02:08

80 to 90mph gusts possible.

0:02:080:02:09

Gale force winds possible elsewhere,

0:02:090:02:11

but not to the level seen in the north.

0:02:110:02:13

A mixture of sunshine

0:02:130:02:14

and heavy, thundery showers.

0:02:140:02:16

Some sleet and snow over higher ground

0:02:160:02:17

in the north.

0:02:170:02:18

A chillier day

0:02:180:02:20

made to feel colder by the strong winds.

0:02:200:02:22

A big shock really

0:02:220:02:23

compared with the week so far.

0:02:230:02:25

Yesterday, we were talking about

0:02:250:02:27

this next low pressure system

0:02:270:02:28

cutting off that supply of cold air.

0:02:280:02:30

It's going to take a bit longer to get to us.

0:02:300:02:32

Saturday is going to be

0:02:320:02:33

another chilly and windy day.

0:02:330:02:35

But winds will be down on Friday's level.

0:02:350:02:37

We'll see sun and showers.

0:02:370:02:39

They'll ease off later

0:02:390:02:40

and cloud will spread into the west.

0:02:400:02:42

Temperatures of around 8 to 11 degrees.

0:02:420:02:44

Through Saturday night into Sunday,

0:02:440:02:47

what's coming will contain traces

0:02:470:02:49

of Hurricane Kate.

0:02:490:02:50

Winds won't be the big player into Sunday -

0:02:500:02:52

although it will be blustery -

0:02:520:02:54

but rain could be a problem.

0:02:540:02:56

Especially where it lands up.

0:02:560:02:58

The heaviest rain

0:02:580:02:59

difficult to determine right now,

0:02:590:03:00

but if it hits areas

0:03:000:03:02

of north England and north Wales,

0:03:020:03:03

we could have further flooding issues.

0:03:030:03:05

So a turbulent end to the weekend.

0:03:050:03:07

Even next week, a strong jet stream overhead,

0:03:070:03:09

but it's going to meander a bit further north and south at times,

0:03:090:03:12

and it will allow incursions of colder air,

0:03:120:03:14

but it'll also allow some longer dry moments

0:03:140:03:16

between those weather systems.

0:03:160:03:17

But throughout, it's a general westerly flow

0:03:170:03:19

which will dominate off the Atlantic,

0:03:190:03:21

keeping things mild, largely speaking,

0:03:210:03:23

but if the wind goes down to a north-westerly every so often,

0:03:230:03:26

those temperatures will drop.

0:03:260:03:28

We'll have more on this tomorrow.

0:03:280:03:30
