:00:10. > :00:17.Good evening. The Bank Holiday weekend is nearly upon us so you
:00:17. > :00:25.know what the forecast is, don't you. Rain around for many. Not a
:00:25. > :00:30.cold night tonight. But showers from the word go tomorrow. There
:00:30. > :00:36.will be plenty of sunshine before the main event arrives later in the
:00:36. > :00:40.south-west, in the form of some very wet weather. Heavy rain, gusty
:00:40. > :00:47.winds and maybe a thunder in Wales and south-west England in the
:00:47. > :00:51.afternoon. Things will deteriorate in the east later on. It will push
:00:51. > :00:58.up into Northern Ireland and the Midlands later on. Further to the
:00:58. > :01:02.north and east and in Scotland, plenty of bright weather as well.

:01:32. > :01:38.Scotland. The low pressure will wander off into the North Sea as we
:01:38. > :01:46.go into Sunday. Brighter skies of further west. For most of us, the
:01:46. > :01:52.Sunday it will not be too bad, but not at all. On Monday, deja-vu. The
:01:52. > :01:57.next area of low pressure coming in from the West. Rain will duly

:02:01. > :02:10.could be making the headlines across the UK this bank holiday
:02:10. > :02:15.weekend. Something else making the headlines next week. Sea ice. This
:02:15. > :02:18.is the extent of it in the spring in the Arctic. Through the summer
