:06:37. > :06:42.some sunshine later this weekend. For tonight, we're keeping a lot of

:06:43. > :06:46.cloud cover. One or two clear intervals but if you missed patches

:06:47. > :06:52.forming later and with a light breeze to be mild, temperatures

:06:53. > :06:56.lowest at 12`15 Celsius. The weekend starting on a rather cloudy notes

:06:57. > :07:00.with mist and fog lifting into low cloud. Through the day we will have

:07:01. > :07:04.brighter spells developing but a few showers running across northern part

:07:05. > :07:09.of the region. You will be unlucky if you catch one. In the best of the

:07:10. > :07:15.sunshine temperatures getting up to 21 possibly 22 degrees Celsius. I

:07:48. > :07:52.like. I have to say -- weather will be like. I have to say it is looking

:07:53. > :07:56.good for most of us. Some of us may have to use our umbrellas, but

:08:03. > :08:05.notice this cloud, this is a weather forecast we have said for the past

:08:06. > :08:06.couple of days. Here
