Hello. Stormy weather is causing problems on both sides of the | :00:00. | :00:15. | |
Atlantic and there is a strong link. It has been a very cold start to the | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
winter in Canada and northern parts of the USA. That has created a very | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
strong temperature contrast. The atmosphere tries to even that out | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
and that is what the weather is all about and it generates the | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
Jetstream. It runs across from west to east across the Atlantic and the | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
stronger the Jetstream, the bigger the storms that come our way. The | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
most recent storm has been producing very strong winds through today as | :00:45. | :00:52. | |
it ran across the north of Scotland. It's dropped the pressure which | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
increased the threat from those very high tides. It has not been a great | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
combination. We have got some severe flood warnings in force. But the | :01:02. | :01:09. | |
weather will start to improve overnight. The winds begin to die | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
down. That has been a key factor for today. It will be light enough by | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
the end of the night for a touch of frost. Maybe some icy patches here | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
and there to the start of the day on Saturday. Further south it is more | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
rain that is coming back in. It will be a bit patchy. We are not quite | :01:31. | :01:35. | |
sure where the heaviest rain will be. It will drop onto saturated | :01:36. | :01:44. | |
ground and will cause a few problems, but that will be fairly | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
localised. As we move north it turns to snow. Eastern parts of northern | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
Ireland and even some snow on lower levels is possible. The northern | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
half of Scotland stays dry and with lighter winds. Lighter winds across | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
England and Wales. Dry in the afternoon, but some pretty big waves | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
crashing on to the coast. This storm comes in on Sunday and it is | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
battering the eastern side of the United States at the moment, so it | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
will take some time to get to us. Again there will be gales in the | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
western areas particularly. The amount of the rain and the extent of | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
the gales will not cause as many problems as over the last few days. | :02:30. | :02:30. |
