0:00:04 > 0:00:06Hello. Coming up, why our weather next week becomes more changeable
0:00:06 > 0:00:08and the role the jet stream has to play in that.
0:00:08 > 0:00:11But first all the weather changes we are all going to experience as
0:00:11 > 0:00:14we go through this weekend, because if you've had thunderstorms
0:00:14 > 0:00:15they will be easing.
0:00:15 > 0:00:19If you've had low cloud, mist and drizzle all of that clears away
0:00:19 > 0:00:22and cooler, but fresher air will be pushing
0:00:22 > 0:00:24South across the United Kingdom,
0:00:24 > 0:00:27as we lose the influence of this area of low pressure to the
0:00:27 > 0:00:29Southwest of us which has been pushing energy
0:00:29 > 0:00:32our way in the form of thunderstorms for some, high-pressure builds in
0:00:32 > 0:00:35and that's going to give us the cleaner, fresher air.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37I think the biggest change will be in Eastern Scotland
0:00:37 > 0:00:38and North East England.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40After a whole week of low cloud, mist
0:00:40 > 0:00:44and murk, this cold front moving South on Saturday will clear all of
0:00:44 > 0:00:49that away and give us brighter skies, better visibility to look forward to.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51The whole of the UK will be in that cleaner,
0:00:51 > 0:00:54fresher air by the time we get to Sunday.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56Let's look at the weekend day by day.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58We start with Saturday and still a lot of mist,
0:00:58 > 0:01:00low cloud and murk across England and Wales.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Plenty of cloud throughout the day. There will be some showers to be had.
0:01:03 > 0:01:04There will be
0:01:04 > 0:01:07some heavy ones developing across parts of Southern England into the
0:01:07 > 0:01:11afternoon even though it's not as warm, not as muggy as it's been.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Any showers very hit and miss, and a few throughout affecting
0:01:14 > 0:01:17parts of Eastern England that could be heavy and thundery.
0:01:17 > 0:01:18And the odd shower
0:01:18 > 0:01:20elsewhere in England and Wales, but also plenty of dry weather.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23For Scotland and Northern Ireland there will be a few showers moving
0:01:23 > 0:01:26through on this North, Northwesterly breeze,
0:01:26 > 0:01:28but there will also be some sunny spells to be had.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Sunshine in places that have not seen it for some time.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35But as the area of high pressure builds in for Sunday it does mean
0:01:35 > 0:01:37under clear skies, especially for the Northern half of the UK
0:01:37 > 0:01:40as Sunday begins, it's going to be a colder morning than we've
0:01:40 > 0:01:43had recently. There is even the risk of ground frost in places.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47Sunday most start dry, a mixture of cloud and sunshine and that fresh
0:01:47 > 0:01:49air, less humid air sweeps all the way down towards
0:01:49 > 0:01:51the South of the United Kingdom.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Temperatures aren't as high, but it's better air quality,
0:01:54 > 0:01:55better visibility.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58That area of high-pressure is still around for most of us on Monday.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00That same sort of weather applies
0:02:00 > 0:02:04after a chilly start. A colder start across Southern areas on
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Monday morning than we've had recently.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Some cloud with breeze heading into the North
0:02:08 > 0:02:12and North West of Scotland, some rain too, courtesy of a weather front
0:02:12 > 0:02:15that weakens as it starts to move South on Tuesday.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Following behind there will be another heading
0:02:17 > 0:02:19into Northern Scotland.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22That gives you a sign our weather is beginning to change.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Weather systems coming in one after another.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26We have not had that for a while.
0:02:26 > 0:02:27And because the jet stream,
0:02:27 > 0:02:30and this is how it's been looking for the past few weeks, has been blocked,
0:02:30 > 0:02:34all the energy from it, and it carries weather systems our way,
0:02:34 > 0:02:37hasn't been coming to our shores. That is now changing.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41As we go through next week, look at this, midweek onwards that
0:02:41 > 0:02:44jet stream is heading right towards the UK with those weather systems.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47But the influence felt more towards the Northwest,
0:02:47 > 0:02:50first to get those weather systems from the jet stream, and not
0:02:50 > 0:02:52so much down towards the Southeast.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Around this area of high pressure that's where our weather will be
0:02:54 > 0:02:56coming from, so we end up with a
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Northwest-Southeast split towards the end of next
0:02:59 > 0:03:01week, even into the following weekend.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04The North and West of the United Kingdom will see most frequent
0:03:04 > 0:03:06incursions from weather systems giving occasional rain,
0:03:06 > 0:03:08breezy conditions, but we're not going to get too
0:03:08 > 0:03:10many of those down towards the South and East of the UK.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13So here it is drier and brighter in comparison.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Again all the way through the end of next week into the weekend,
0:03:16 > 0:03:19even the start of the following week a Northwest-Southeast
0:03:19 > 0:03:21split across the UK.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Our weather turning more changeable
0:03:23 > 0:03:27and again the jet stream has a major part to play in all of that.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29We'll keep you updated day by day. For now, goodbye.
