This weekend's cold weather has been described

0:00:020:00:04

as a short, sharp shock because it doesn't stick around too long.

0:00:040:00:07

Certainly, looking further ahead as far as ten days,

0:00:070:00:10

our weather will be varied

0:00:100:00:12

and temperatures will be from mild occasionally to cold

0:00:120:00:15

but not as cold as the air we have across the UK at the moment

0:00:150:00:19

nor as much snow, because some of us are now seeing our first snow

0:00:190:00:22

of the season, not just on hills,

0:00:220:00:24

our first proper arctic plunge.

0:00:240:00:27

But actually, during Saturday, once early rain,

0:00:270:00:30

sleet and snow clears away from south-east England,

0:00:300:00:32

there's a lot of fine weather to come.

0:00:320:00:34

Clear, crisp, clean arctic air.

0:00:340:00:37

Great visibility.

0:00:370:00:38

Notice showers still, though,

0:00:380:00:40

for many coastal parts,

0:00:400:00:41

east, west and north and still a strong to gale-force wind,

0:00:410:00:45

so a bitter wind chill

0:00:450:00:47

and this is what it will feel like out and about.

0:00:470:00:49

For some of us, it'll feel like it's below freezing.

0:00:490:00:52

We need to watch - some of these snow showers affecting

0:00:520:00:54

parts of eastern England during Saturday evening.

0:00:540:00:57

Could get a covering in places.

0:00:570:00:59

And then overnight, Saturday into Sunday,

0:00:590:01:01

we're going to see further showers spreading south -

0:01:010:01:03

a lot of these tending to be of rain with hill snow.

0:01:030:01:06

Away from the showers, there will be a frost

0:01:060:01:08

and that's another part of the weather.

0:01:080:01:10

More widespread frost than we've seen recently.

0:01:100:01:12

Still a few showers dotted about,

0:01:120:01:13

particularly around coastal parts

0:01:130:01:15

on Sunday, but again,

0:01:150:01:16

a lot of fine, sunny weather during the afternoon.

0:01:160:01:20

The wind not quite as strong on Sunday

0:01:200:01:22

and therefore it's not going to feel quite as cold.

0:01:220:01:25

Now, we talked about the cold weather not lasting very long,

0:01:250:01:28

and notice as we go from Sunday into Monday,

0:01:280:01:30

around this area of high-pressure,

0:01:300:01:32

we're starting to bring back into the UK Atlantic air.

0:01:320:01:36

Less cold Atlantic air.

0:01:360:01:37

Not from the south-west of the UK, so it's not going to be as mild

0:01:370:01:40

as it's been in recent weeks, but still milder than the weekend.

0:01:400:01:44

That said, wide-spread frost to start off

0:01:440:01:46

on Monday with cloud moving in. Temperatures are going to struggle.

0:01:460:01:49

We will see outbreaks of rain moving southwards across the UK

0:01:490:01:53

as that milder air filters in.

0:01:530:01:55

And then going Monday to Tuesday -

0:01:550:01:57

big picture still very similar.

0:01:570:01:59

Weather systems coming in across the Atlantic

0:01:590:02:02

from the north-west this time.

0:02:020:02:04

So, the last of Monday's rain

0:02:040:02:06

clears the south-east early on Tuesday

0:02:060:02:08

and then we see another system moving in

0:02:080:02:10

later towards the north-west,

0:02:100:02:12

initially with showers and then more persistent rain

0:02:120:02:14

heading in and stronger winds once again.

0:02:140:02:16

Now that rushes south-eastwards across the UK,

0:02:160:02:19

Tuesday into Wednesday.

0:02:190:02:21

And notice the isobars tightening - stronger winds

0:02:210:02:24

and starting to pivot back towards the north and that is a theme.

0:02:240:02:28

This is Wednesday's picture though.

0:02:280:02:30

That rain clears away, again south-eastwards,

0:02:300:02:32

then we've got sunshine and showers.

0:02:320:02:34

So the theme for next week

0:02:340:02:36

as far as ten days into the future shows -

0:02:360:02:38

very varied weather

0:02:380:02:40

with the jet stream mainly coming in from the Atlantic

0:02:400:02:43

but at times just starting to pivot a little bit further north

0:02:430:02:47

and tapping into some colder air.

0:02:470:02:49

So what we'll find is our weather, the feel of the weather,

0:02:490:02:53

temperatures swinging from mild with spells of wet

0:02:530:02:56

and windy weather to occasionally something a little bit colder

0:02:560:03:00

although overall,

0:03:000:03:01

it looks as if temperatures will be close to average.

0:03:010:03:04

If you think average is around seven to ten Celsius or occasionally

0:03:040:03:07

a bit higher than that, maybe occasionally a bit lower than that.

0:03:070:03:10

Yes, there will be spells of wet and windy weather,

0:03:100:03:13

but there are also going to be drier and calmer interludes too.

0:03:130:03:16

It says next week -

0:03:160:03:17

it also includes into the following weekend.

0:03:170:03:20

So very varied weather!

0:03:200:03:22

Typical of British weather and very typical of this time of year.

0:03:220:03:26

That's it for now. More, as ever, elsewhere online.

0:03:260:03:29

We're looking for a trap street.
