:00:00. > :00:10.further and of field, Matt Taylor has the national forecast.
:00:11. > :00:18.If it is staycation for you at the moment, there is an unwelcome guest
:00:19. > :00:23.at Hotel UK, the jet stream to the south of the UK, quite important,
:00:24. > :00:26.because it is bringing weather systems, and it forms on the
:00:27. > :00:29.boundary between warm air to the south and cooler to the north, and
:00:30. > :00:33.we are on the wrong side of the jet stream at the moment, we have got
:00:34. > :00:38.cooler and low pressure in charge. It will be with us through the week
:00:39. > :00:42.and a weekend, and this weather front has cleared, but we have some
:00:43. > :00:46.nasty showers at present, south-west Scotland, boogie across north-west
:00:47. > :00:49.England, thunderstorms, torrential downpours, moving across the
:00:50. > :00:56.Pennines shortly, fading away through the night. But the rest of
:00:57. > :01:00.you, the night will be dry, showers in the north and west, fresher than
:01:01. > :01:04.last night, double figures in towns and cities, single digits in the
:01:05. > :01:10.countryside. The morning is best for dry weather tomorrow, high cloud
:01:11. > :01:14.across the south, but showers quickly forming in the West,
:01:15. > :01:17.frequent in western Scotland, Northern Ireland, developing across
:01:18. > :01:25.England and Wales through the last stage of the morning. The odd rumble
:01:26. > :01:29.of thunder with those, but sunshine will be back, one to avoiding the
:01:30. > :01:32.showers, best favoured will be Scotland towards Orkney and
:01:33. > :01:38.Shetland. When the showers go through, a day for July. The showers
:01:39. > :01:40.continue through the night into Friday, lengthier burst across
:01:41. > :01:45.Northern Ireland, Scotland and northern England, temperatures
:01:46. > :01:49.similar to this coming night. As we go into Friday, the same area of low
:01:50. > :01:52.pressure anchored to the north-west of us, but on the southern flank
:01:53. > :01:58.something else developing closer to the jet stream. That will change the
:01:59. > :02:03.fortunes of England and Wales, after a dry start on Friday, clouding over
:02:04. > :02:08.from the south-west, more abundant rainfall southern England, Wales,
:02:09. > :02:12.the Midlands, North West England. A wet night will follow across England
:02:13. > :02:17.and Wales before that rain clears into the near continent for the rest
:02:18. > :02:21.of the weekend. Is will inhibit some of the showers to the south and
:02:22. > :02:24.east, so I dry day on Saturday, lots of showers to the north and west,
:02:25. > :02:29.and when you see the sunshine and will feel warm, but when the showers
:02:30. > :02:30.come through, it will feel rather cool.
