:06:22. > :06:24.It will go to the Solent Sky Museum near Southampton,

:09:06. > :09:12.Hello, good evening. We have got some more fine and dry weather to

:09:13. > :09:14.look forward to, not just for tomorrow, but continuing into the

:09:15. > :09:21.weekend as well. Getting a bit warmer. A bit more cloud arriving

:09:22. > :09:26.late in the night which could devise a rather cloudy start about we will

:09:27. > :09:30.see sunshine quickly developing. This area of high pressure is

:09:31. > :09:36.slow-moving. This is it position in the middle of the day tomorrow. By

:09:37. > :09:39.Friday it is beginning to move, and that slow progress means gradually

:09:40. > :09:44.we will start to seek southerly winds. There is a lot of warm air

:09:45. > :09:49.down across Spain and Portugal, and gradually that will drift across us

:09:50. > :09:52.into the weekend. Overnight tonight, temperatures will dip into single

:09:53. > :09:57.figures, like twins as well. Tomorrow, we do have quite a lot of

:09:58. > :10:00.cloud to start with but it will gradually break up. After lunch, a

:10:01. > :10:07.good chance of seeing sums tells of sunshine with the sun breaking

:10:08. > :10:15.through the cloud. Light winds from the North or Northeast. The real

:10:16. > :10:18.warmth is across Spain and Portugal. Once we start to see southerly

:10:19. > :10:22.winds, we will start to see some higher temperatures. Still

:10:23. > :10:27.relatively cool across the north-east of Europe with daytime

:10:28. > :10:34.temperatures still in single figures across parts of Scandinavia.

:10:35. > :10:38.Temperatures up to 13 on Friday, and Saturday and Sunday, as the winds

:10:39. > :10:46.eventually become southerly, the forecast is promising with 17 on

:10:47. > :10:50.Saturday, and perhaps 19 or even 20 on Sunday.

:10:51. > :10:56.Have a good night. We will be back at 6:30pm tomorrow.

:10:57. > :11:04.Have a good evening. or 15. It is sunny towards the

:11:05. > :11:07.weekend and we could see the low 20s by Sunday. Here is Darren with the

:11:08. > :11:14.national weather. Hello. The weather has been a big

:11:15. > :11:20.news in North America across the Masters in Augusta, for the first

:11:21. > :11:24.time the par-3 competition was abandoned, the storms moving away

:11:25. > :11:28.and sunshine windy for a while. Temperatures about 17, which is on a

:11:29. > :11:32.par with what we had today in the south-east of Wales, blue skies

:11:33. > :11:36.around here. That's from one of our weather watchers. More sunshine over

:11:37. > :11:40.the next few days. Little or no rain once again, it's looking dry and as

:11:41. > :11:42.we get more sunshine, especially in England and Wales this weekend, it

:11:43. > :11:47.will be warming up. In stark contrast with what we are seeing at

:11:48. > :11:48.the moment, dhil chilly out
