Outlook. Tom Shuffle knacker has the National forecast in a few seconds.

Some rain around on Monday. If you remember, this time last

week, we had some very vicious weather costing the country, the

storm on Friday night. Much quieter this Friday night and a much quieter

week. Come the weekend, the Atlantic is still a little fierce. We will

have some wind and rain in the forecast, too, but not all of us. In

fact, for some of us, the weekend will be fairly decent so let's see

what happens. This is the recent satellite picture. We have a window

of reasonably good weather. The cloud and low-pressure is heading in

our direction and this area of low-pressure unfortunately will

upset the weather across western areas of the UK over the next 2 and

48 hours. Now it's relatively quiet. A bit of a breeze and quite breezy

in the North of Scotland. Some showers around the country but the

vast majority, dry weather with cloudy spells. A touch of frost here

and there. Tomorrow morning starts off bright. Some lovely weather

actually to greet us across the bulk of the country. You will notice the

wind and rain are gathering across East North Western portions of the

country. Here, increasing winding cloud in the afternoon so, implement

it will turn quite blowy, but some lovely weather from Southampton

Oxford, burning into Norwich. In fact, it may stay dry but fairly

blowy all through the course of the weekend. The further north and west

we go, the more rain is expected. Across the hilly areas of Scotland,

the Southern uplands, Cumbria, quite a lot of rain this weekend. Now

this is Saturday night into the early hours of Sunday. That area of

low pressure is right over us. The isobars are very straight running

from the South moving northwards. That means pretty strong winds as

well. We have got this really big amount of wind coming from the

South. 60 mph in exposed coasts of Wales. Maybe touching 70 in a few

places and rather a lot of rain across the hills of Wales into

Cumbria, too. But, as far as the South and East goes, I think they

will hang on to some fine weather. Feeling a little springlike with a

hint of what's coming our way next week. Again, the Atlantic is

fierce, more low-pressure heading our way but whatever the weather,

enjoyed weekend.
