:00:07. > :00:15.Good evening. A quiet day on the weather front but we still managed
:00:16. > :00:20.to have some huge contrasts in the weather. This was a beautiful
:00:21. > :00:27.picture from Cumbria, blue skies and crystal clear blue skies in Argyll
:00:28. > :00:31.and Bute but closer to the north coast, it sends shivers down your
:00:32. > :00:37.spine! Chilly and cloudy all along that cost this bank of cloud that
:00:38. > :00:43.sliced the country in half, cool and cloudy to the east and to the West
:00:44. > :00:48.had sunshine. But it still been dry and it will stay that way for most

:00:58. > :01:01.of cloud in most of England and Wales but many northern and western
:01:02. > :01:07.parts, the stars are out. Temperatures not too low, six or 7
:01:08. > :01:10.degrees, maybe a bit fresher in the Glens of Scotland. This is first

:01:16. > :01:20.Northern Ireland and the Lake District, Morkel cloud closer to the
:01:21. > :01:29.North Sea coast and also in the Midlands -- more clout. Nice in West
:01:30. > :01:34.Wales and beautiful in Cornwall and nice in along the south coast as
:01:35. > :01:39.well. This could be quite stubborn cloud, it could break up in a few
:01:40. > :01:43.areas but overall, the further east you are, no more cloudy it is likely
