0:00:03 > 0:00:05Hello there. It's been an unsettled end to the working week.
0:00:05 > 0:00:08We've had rain, sleet and snow over the hills
0:00:08 > 0:00:09and some thunderstorms, too.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12Things will turn a bit quieter gradually through the weekend.
0:00:12 > 0:00:15On Saturday, though, still some wintry showers on the cards,
0:00:15 > 0:00:18and it will be feeling cold wherever you are on Saturday.
0:00:18 > 0:00:21Sunday, a cold, frosty start, but more in the way of sunshine,
0:00:21 > 0:00:25and some drier weather on the cards eventually by Sunday, too.
0:00:25 > 0:00:27Here's the pressure situation. We've still got a few fronts
0:00:27 > 0:00:30lingering, for eastern areas in particular, on Saturday
0:00:30 > 0:00:33but higher pressure starting to build in from the Atlantic.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35So, for Saturday morning, some outbreaks of rain,
0:00:35 > 0:00:38even some hill snow pushing through parts of northern England.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Central and eastern parts of England keeping the cloud
0:00:40 > 0:00:43and the outbreaks of rain through the day, turning more showery.
0:00:43 > 0:00:47Some sleet and snow showers likely across the hills of Scotland
0:00:47 > 0:00:50for a time, but many western areas seeing some sunshine.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Look at those temperatures - single figures,
0:00:52 > 0:00:54just five degrees for Norwich.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56We've got this cold northerly wind, so anywhere exposed to that wind
0:00:56 > 0:00:59will feel pretty raw through the day.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Now, overnight and as we head into Sunday, showers clear,
0:01:02 > 0:01:03winds fall light,
0:01:03 > 0:01:06particularly cold for the time of year, a really sharp
0:01:06 > 0:01:09frost really across the board as we move through into Sunday morning.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12It might be a little bit milder towards the south-east.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16But Sunday's set to start on a very chilly note with that sharp frost.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Now, through the day, we will see a weak front just approaching the far
0:01:19 > 0:01:22north-west of the country, so for Sunday a bit cloudier with light,
0:01:22 > 0:01:24drizzly rain for Western Scotland
0:01:24 > 0:01:26and western parts of Northern Ireland,
0:01:26 > 0:01:27but there should be brighter spells
0:01:27 > 0:01:30for eastern parts of Northern Ireland and Scotland.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33And for England and Wales, not a bad day after that early frost
0:01:33 > 0:01:36and some mist around. Sunny spells through much of the day.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39And those temperatures will be back up a few degrees warmer
0:01:39 > 0:01:42compared to Saturday but still rather cool for the time of year.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Now, as we move into the new working week,
0:01:44 > 0:01:46heading on into Monday, this frontal system
0:01:46 > 0:01:49slips a little bit further south across the country.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Not too much on that, but we could just see
0:01:51 > 0:01:53a few spots of light rain shifting south.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Temperatures still a little below average for the time of year
0:01:56 > 0:01:57but Monday's shaping up to be not a bad day.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59With that north-westerly air flow,
0:01:59 > 0:02:02temperatures between around about ten to fourteen degrees
0:02:02 > 0:02:05and some decent spells of sunshine, although there could be just
0:02:05 > 0:02:09a few spots of light rain shifting south during the day.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Moving on into Tuesday, we start to see this large area of high
0:02:12 > 0:02:15pressure just becoming established across the UK.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Low pressure remaining well out towards the south.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Yesterday, there was a thought that that low pressure might move up
0:02:20 > 0:02:23towards south-western parts of the UK, but, in fact,
0:02:23 > 0:02:26it looks like Tuesday will remain largely dry and settled.
0:02:26 > 0:02:2814 degrees or so towards the south-east,
0:02:28 > 0:02:30a little cooler where you're exposed to that breeze
0:02:30 > 0:02:33around parts of Scotland and eastern England, too.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Into Wednesday, high pressure's still the main driving force.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39We've got low pressure out towards the south,
0:02:39 > 0:02:42low pressure also towards the north, so a trailing weather front
0:02:42 > 0:02:44likely to bring some rain across the north-west of Scotland.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48Elsewhere, things are dry and, after night-time frosts
0:02:48 > 0:02:50and some mist, should feel reasonably pleasant with
0:02:50 > 0:02:52the light winds and highs around 14 degrees or so.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55So, this is how we look the middle of next week, then.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58High pressure in charge, sitting out towards the Atlantic.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00We're likely to see a north-westerly influence to the weather,
0:03:00 > 0:03:02so still reasonably chilly.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04With high pressure in the Atlantic
0:03:04 > 0:03:06and low pressure becoming established towards the
0:03:06 > 0:03:10east, that leaves us with this cold northerly wind flow late next week.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13There could be some showers, wintry across parts of Scotland,
0:03:13 > 0:03:17also some rain showers likely around the east coast of England, too.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Further south-west, in the shelter, some drier
0:03:19 > 0:03:21and some brighter weather to be seen.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24So, to end next week and next weekend, things are remaining cold,
0:03:24 > 0:03:26further showers, mainly in the north and the east,
0:03:26 > 0:03:29and a return to night-time frosts. Bye for now.
