We've seen a transition in weather type through the middle part | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
of the week. We started off the week with cold, crisp wintry conditions | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
with frost, ice and some sunshine around, too, but earlier on | 0:00:08 | 0:00:11 | |
in the week temperatures typically struggle just a degree or two | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
above freezing. Through the middle part of the week | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
the temperatures have risen to about average and by the weekend | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
we're likely to see those temperatures topping around | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
about 15 degrees or so - well above average for this time of year. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:25 | |
We've already seen the mild air start to pour in across the country | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
and with the milder conditions also the arrival of some | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
wet and windy weather. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:32 | |
A band of cloud, wind and rain | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
working its way gradually eastwards through Friday. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
That will be followed by brighter, drier conditions | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
rolling in from the west. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
A return to some sunshine but there's likely to be | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
some lying surface water around after the morning's heavy rain. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
For parts of Northern Ireland and southwest Scotland | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
there could be some localised flooding. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:50 | |
Temperature-wise we're back into double figures, | 0:00:50 | 0:00:52 | |
perhaps just holding on to the cooler conditions | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
for some eastern counties of England for a time. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
Once we lose that weather front late on Friday we look to see | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
drier conditions, clearer skies Friday night and into Saturday. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
A few blustery showers towards the north and west. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
But a ridge of higher pressure starts to build | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
as we head into the first part of the weekend. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
That will dominate things through Saturday, so not a bad day at all. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:14 | |
There could be some mist and fog around at first | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
but a largely dry day with spells of sunshine on Saturday | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
and certainly feeling quite mild. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
Sunday a different day, still very mild but a cloudier picture, | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
so a greyer day with some outbreaks of rain, | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
especially in the north and west. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
This is how Saturday's shaping up - mist and fog | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
in the south likely first thing | 0:01:32 | 0:01:33 | |
but a lot of dry weather, some sunny spells on offer, | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |
the breeze picking up in the west | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
and perhaps some rain working in here later on. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
But for the vast majority it's a dry day. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
Temperatures are set to peak around 10 or 11 degrees | 0:01:42 | 0:01:46 | |
where we do get that brightness. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
A change into Sunday. We've got more cloud | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
and that cloud bringing with it some outbreaks of rain for some | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
northern and western areas, the breeze picking up in the west. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
But central and eastern parts staying dry | 0:01:56 | 0:01:58 | |
and where the cloud breaks we're likely to see | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
14 or 15 degrees - | 0:02:00 | 0:02:01 | |
well above normal for this time of year. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
Some uncertainty onto the first part of the new working week. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
On Monday it looks like we will see a developing area of low pressure | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
that's likely to bring some windy conditions on Monday, | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
particularly the further west you are. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
So a wet and windy day for Northern Ireland, Wales, | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
parts of Scotland, too. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:18 | |
For central and eastern parts of England still very mild | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
and there could be a bit of sunshine on offer. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
There will be some windy and wet weather at times on Monday. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
On into Tuesday, | 0:02:26 | 0:02:27 | |
some uncertainty on the exact detail and timing | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
but it looks like a quieter day. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
We're likely to start with the remnants of some showery weather, | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
easing way, later on things drier, a return to some sunny skies | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
but feeling a bit fresher with temperatures down | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
a few degrees compared to Monday. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
This is a simplified representation of what's happening with | 0:02:43 | 0:02:46 | |
the jet stream through the middle to the latter part of next week. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
You can see an undulating jet stream back into the Atlantic. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
At times we'll be on the cold side of that, at other times | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
on the milder side of it towards the south of the jet stream. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
When we're on the south it will send low pressure systems our way | 0:02:57 | 0:03:00 | |
bringing milder but wetter weather. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
Towards the north of the jet stream that's when we'll see periods | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
of drier, fresher, brighter and cooler conditions | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
with some scattered showers. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
So it will be a bit of a changeable sort of week ahead, really, | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
with milder spells of weather interspersed with colder spells, too. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:18 | |
Rain and wind at times with the milder weather | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
but a chance we could see some frosty conditions overnight, too. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
So plenty going on with the weather through the week ahead. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
We'll keep you up to date right here. Bye-bye. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
It all started with the discovery of one enormous thigh bone. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:37 | |
