Hello. We saw temperature differences across England | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
alone during Tuesday, of 10 degrees or more. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
Temperature contrasts are being played out across the UK | 0:00:07 | 0:00:10 | |
and will continue to do so. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:11 | |
The weather patterns aren't changing much. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:13 | |
The reason is this unusual S-shape of a jet stream | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
across the northern Atlantic. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
We are used to it going from West to East, | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
that changes the weather patterns quite rapidly. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:21 | |
With this pattern, | 0:00:21 | 0:00:22 | |
the weather systems underneath don't move very far. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:26 | |
On this bulge towards the south we have got low-pressure centred, | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
on the bulge to the north, high pressure. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
So high pressure to the north, low pressure to the south, | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
it'll be that way through much of this week. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
Dividing line between what is cold air | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
and warm air is a weather front which will be across the far | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
north of England, into Scotland and Northern Ireland, | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
bringing rain through the day. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
Chilly conditions to the north of that, bit of a breeze. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
Warmer air to the south after mist and morning fog. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
Sunshine comes out, temperatures lift | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
and we will see some thunderstorms develop. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
The thunderstorms could come with hail. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
It will be another warm day, whereas further north, another cold day, | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
especially in the wind which will be still with us. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
Outbreaks of rain across eastern Scotland and north-east England. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
Showers taking longer to decay away across England | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
and Wales into Thursday morning. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
Slightly bigger temperature contrasts into Thursday morning, | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
with colder air cooling across the north of Scotland. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
A touch of frost around. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
That dividing line between the cold and warm air still with us | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
on Thursday, high to the north, low to the south. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
Nothing much changing there. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
But there will be some changes, there will be a bit more brightness | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
across Scotland, Northern Ireland and the far north of England. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
Still some rain, still a bit cool | 0:01:30 | 0:01:31 | |
and grim down these eastern coasts. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
An improvement on the past few days. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
England and Wales, morning cloud breaks up, sunshine comes | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
through, warm once again but that sets off thunderstorms. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
You can see those temperature contrasts in action. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
A little cooler to the south-west by this stage | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
and that is because the low pressure to the south of us | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
starts to become a bit more dominant, at least for Friday. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
At the same time, a weather front pushes into the north | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
of Scotland, introducing even colder air. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
A bit of snow on the tops of the hills as well, | 0:01:56 | 0:01:58 | |
even to lower levels later. | 0:01:58 | 0:01:59 | |
England and Wales, a lot more cloud around, showers, | 0:01:59 | 0:02:03 | |
longer spells of rain. The odd thunderstorm can't be ruled out. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:07 | |
Temperatures, by and large, | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
UK-wide, will be down on what we have at the moment. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
Into Saturday, the cold front pushes southwards. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
There could still be some snow, not just to the hills. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
Brighter weather developing across the far north. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
To the south, still plenty of cloud, | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
still the chance of showers at times. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
That will take us into Sunday. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:26 | |
The low pressure starting to pull away by Sunday. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:29 | |
How quickly it goes, how quick that colder air pushes its way | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
southwards is one thing we will have to watch. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
It could happen quicker than shown on the charts. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
Sunday could be a better day but at the moment, it still looks | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
a potential for showers, mainly across England and Wales. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
Brighter, lighter winds the further north you are. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
Beyond that, though, there is a greater sign that it is high | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
pressure that will dominate into next week. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
Not as much low pressure, as Darren was hinting at yesterday. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
The high pressure, how far east | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
and how quickly it comes in will be the biggest question. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
If it stalls and stays to the west of us, | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
it will continue to feed in cooler conditions across the UK. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
But it could easily build across the UK a little further east | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
and if it does so, that will allow south or south-easterly winds | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
to become a bit more dominant and bring a bit more warmth in. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
That is one big question mark for next week. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
Either way, it looks drier than this week. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
Even if we get that high pressure to the west with a colder air, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
the sun is still strong enough to give a bit of daytime warmth. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
But by night, either regime could still produce a little | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
bit of night-time frost. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:30 |
