Hello.

0:00:030:00:04

The weekend started with a low pressure system on top of the UK.

0:00:040:00:07

We saw strong winds and large waves. Thankfully things have calmed down.

0:00:070:00:12

The week ahead...

0:00:130:00:15

The headlines will be the temperatures

0:00:150:00:17

in the south and south-east.

0:00:170:00:19

It'll be a hot spell, but it won't last too long.

0:00:190:00:21

Thunderstorms will develop later this week.

0:00:210:00:23

Once they move through, it'll turn fresher.

0:00:230:00:26

It's a warm, humid start to the day

0:00:260:00:28

in this warm sector across

0:00:280:00:29

England and Wales,

0:00:290:00:31

but there's also cloud and rain.

0:00:310:00:34

Northern England will be the wettest place in the morning.

0:00:340:00:38

Given time, things will improve,

0:00:380:00:40

particularly east of the Pennines.

0:00:400:00:42

There'll be showers in Scotland,

0:00:430:00:45

but dry for the most part and

0:00:450:00:47

brightening up in the east of Scotland.

0:00:470:00:50

It'll stay dull and dump in Wales.

0:00:500:00:52

Warm and humid in the south-east.

0:00:520:00:54

25 degrees in the London area.

0:00:540:00:58

Monday night into Tuesday...

0:00:580:01:00

Watching this weather front drifting northwards

0:01:000:01:03

up the western side of the UK.

0:01:030:01:05

This is going to be important on

0:01:050:01:07

Tuesday because it will bring rain

0:01:070:01:09

but it will also be the dividing line

0:01:090:01:12

between fresher conditions to the north and the west

0:01:120:01:14

and something a lot hotter further south.

0:01:140:01:17

Hot air across the near continent drifting our way.

0:01:170:01:21

Many places getting into the middle to upper 20s.

0:01:210:01:23

Huge contrasts with the weather during Tuesday daytime.

0:01:230:01:26

Wet in Northern Ireland and southern Scotland.

0:01:260:01:29

Increasing amounts of sunshine across England and Wales.

0:01:290:01:33

Many places in the middle to upper 20s.

0:01:330:01:37

29 or so in the London area.

0:01:370:01:39

Towards Wednesday,

0:01:400:01:41

trailing weather fronts bring a lot of cloud, but not much rain.

0:01:410:01:45

Yes, fairly cloudy, but a dry day mostly.

0:01:450:01:48

Maybe showers in the north-west where there's more of breeze

0:01:480:01:52

than elsewhere.

0:01:520:01:53

It's going to be a decent day for many. Pretty hot in the south-east.

0:01:530:01:57

Looking at 27 or 28 degrees for places like Norwich and London.

0:01:570:02:00

It's a bit fresher further north and west. 19 in Glasgow.

0:02:000:02:04

21, 22 in Cardiff.

0:02:040:02:06

Wednesday night into Thursday,

0:02:060:02:07

there's potential for thunderstorms to develop

0:02:070:02:11

across some central and eastern areas.

0:02:110:02:13

Further west, underneath that weather front,

0:02:130:02:15

it may well reinvigorate itself.

0:02:150:02:17

So there's likely to be some rather more persistent rain out west.

0:02:170:02:20

So there are some question marks about the detail for Thursday,

0:02:200:02:23

but, as I say, potential for some thunderstorms for central and

0:02:230:02:25

eastern areas, some dry and brighter spells between.

0:02:250:02:28

Further north and west,

0:02:280:02:29

the rain is likely to be heavier and more persistent.

0:02:290:02:31

A real range of temperatures. 17 in Glasgow.

0:02:310:02:34

Quite warm again in the south-east. 25 or 26.

0:02:340:02:36

And then Thursday night into Friday.

0:02:360:02:39

Finally that weather front makes progress southwards and

0:02:390:02:42

eastwards, and then something a bit fresher follows behind.

0:02:420:02:46

By the end of the week,

0:02:460:02:47

just that far south-eastern corner seeing early rain. That soon moves.

0:02:470:02:51

Decent day for most places.

0:02:510:02:52

Though the north-west has more of a breeze and a few showers.

0:02:520:02:56

By this stage, we've got temperatures around normal.

0:02:560:02:58

17 in Glasgow.

0:02:580:03:00

23 or 24 in the south-eastern corner.

0:03:000:03:01

Into next weekend,

0:03:020:03:03

it looks like this Atlantic low will drift from the Atlantic.

0:03:030:03:07

It'll park itself in the north and west of the UK.

0:03:070:03:11

That brings more breeze, more cloud and some outbreaks of rain.

0:03:110:03:15

Looking ahead towards the end of August, we're still going to

0:03:160:03:19

see low pressure systems in the north and west of the UK.

0:03:190:03:22

That's where it's likely to be wettest.

0:03:220:03:24

Further south and east, much drier.

0:03:240:03:26

Temperature wise, we'll be around the norm. Bye for now.
