Hello. If you were watching yesterday evening, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
I was telling you about how quiet | 0:00:04 | 0:00:05 | |
the weather picture is at the moment. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
We've got high pressure sat across the country and that | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
will stay with us, certainly for the next six days and for some, | 0:00:09 | 0:00:12 | |
beyond that as well. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
Of course, we've got that harsh, | 0:00:14 | 0:00:15 | |
winter cold weather across continental Europe and that | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
has been creeping into the UK and that process will continue | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
in the coming few days. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:22 | |
But with it, | 0:00:22 | 0:00:23 | |
we've seen some lovely sunshine. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
Crisp weather as you saw there in London. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:27 | |
However, we've got a weak weather front across the country | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
so we're seeing some quite significant contrast as you | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
saw there in Derbyshire. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:33 | |
Of course, the cloud does mean that it will be a mild night for many, | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
but where the cloud breaks, perhaps the Vale of York, the north and east | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
and particularly across the southern half of the country, | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
there will be a harsh frost. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
-6 again, -7. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:45 | |
Plus we'll have some fog. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:47 | |
But once it does clear, | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
the sunshine looks more abundant as we head into Friday morning. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
Do watch out for some freezing fog across central areas first thing | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
and perhaps the north-east. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:56 | |
But there is a better chance of brighter weather for | 0:00:56 | 0:00:58 | |
Northern Ireland, for Wales, | 0:00:58 | 0:00:59 | |
the north Midlands, Lincolnshire compared with recent days. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
But it won't be warm, 5 or 6 degrees generally. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
Over the weekend, those temperatures will lower. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
As I mentioned, we're pulling in that colder, continental air. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
So, again, Friday night into Saturday looks cold and again | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
there's a risk of some freezing, | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
patchy freezing fog as we head into Saturday morning. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
Again, there's little wind to clear it, | 0:01:18 | 0:01:19 | |
but it should eventually clear, then we will see some sunshine. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:23 | |
But there is a weak weather front. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:24 | |
That weak weather front still with us throughout the weekend. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
Actually, through the weekend, | 0:01:26 | 0:01:28 | |
it might give us a little bit of sleet and snow. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
Just a few flurries, just letting us know winter is still with us, | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
but no significant amounts, we don't feel. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
Still, only 4 or 5 degrees. It will be a cold weekend. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:39 | |
But a usable weekend because it should be mainly dry | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
with some sunshine. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
But chilly by day and chilly by night. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:45 | |
And that's the way we start the new week. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
But we're moistening up the air somewhat through the weekend | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
and the early part of the week. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
So fog is likely to become more of an issue and just in time | 0:01:52 | 0:01:56 | |
for the return to work on Monday, for the rush hour. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:58 | |
There could be some quite dense and fairly widespread patches | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
of fog Monday morning. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:02 | |
Freezing fog, of course, because we'll have those frosts by night. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
These are daytime temperatures - 4s and 5s. Still pretty nippy. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:09 | |
Tuesday, still the same across the bulk of the UK, but towards | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
the north and west, we're dragging in the south-westerly wind. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
More cloud, milder Atlantic air and some rain, | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
but it doesn't really amount to anything. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:20 | |
But it's the first go, if you like, | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
it's the first low pressure and weather system to have a go at | 0:02:22 | 0:02:25 | |
clearing out this dominant area of high pressure which | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
has been with us all this week. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
That cold air across the continent really has established itself. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
It's got a lot of inertia. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:35 | |
We've got to really work to move that high pressure out the way. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
You can see what an area it covers. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
But, as we go through the early part of the week, | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
we will find that these low pressures are starting to push in. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
Their momentum starting to move the rain and the stronger winds | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
into the north-west of the UK. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
So there's still high pressure and still that cold, continental feel. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
But gradually, we'll get the milder Atlantic winds, | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
at least into the north and west and it's how quickly those start | 0:03:00 | 0:03:04 | |
to erode that area of high pressure which will determine | 0:03:04 | 0:03:08 | |
how quickly we see our weather change from this cold, crisp, | 0:03:08 | 0:03:12 | |
sunny weather to the rainy, wet weather in the north and west. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:15 | |
It will take quite a significant area of low pressure to move | 0:03:15 | 0:03:18 | |
it out the way and it does look like later next week we will have | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
some gales or severe gales moving in with some rain. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
But, for the meantime, | 0:03:25 | 0:03:26 | |
fog particularly becoming a problem, more frosty nights. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:30 |
