Hello there. It's been dry across large swathes of the United Kingdom | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
for quite some time now, and it was | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
another dry day for many on Thursday, | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
particularly across the northern half of the UK. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:10 | |
Lovely picture from | 0:00:10 | 0:00:11 | |
one of our Weather Watchers, | 0:00:11 | 0:00:13 | |
blue sky in Northumberland, however, | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
we are starting to see some changes | 0:00:15 | 0:00:16 | |
in the southern half of the UK. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:17 | |
Yes, we have begun to see some rain. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
Now, that rain is moving | 0:00:20 | 0:00:21 | |
ever northwards on quite | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
a warm and fairly humid stream | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
of air coming in from the near continent. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:27 | |
So that humid air will be | 0:00:27 | 0:00:28 | |
with us for a couple of days, | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
particularly across England and Wales. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
So we start on a fairly warm note | 0:00:32 | 0:00:33 | |
in the southern half of the UK, | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
but we're going to see a lot of cloud in the sky | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
and there will be some | 0:00:37 | 0:00:38 | |
showers dotted around, | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
some quite heavy, the odd rumble of thunder. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
Eastern Scotland though, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:43 | |
looks pretty grey and cool. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
Only nine degrees in Aberdeen, | 0:00:45 | 0:00:46 | |
ten degrees warmer than that | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
further west with a bit of sunshine. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:49 | |
Scattered showers into | 0:00:49 | 0:00:50 | |
southern Scotland, Northern Ireland | 0:00:50 | 0:00:52 | |
and across England and Wales. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:53 | |
There will be a good rash of showers | 0:00:53 | 0:00:55 | |
around through the afternoon, | 0:00:55 | 0:00:56 | |
and there could be the odd rumble | 0:00:56 | 0:00:58 | |
of thunder to go with that. | 0:00:58 | 0:00:59 | |
Top temperature around about 19, 20 degrees | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
in the south-eastern corner | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
and a fairly humid feel to things for many. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
Some of the showers in the south-west again | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
on the sharp side, but through the evening, | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
the showers in the south-east | 0:01:09 | 0:01:10 | |
look like they tend to fade away. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:12 | |
We'll keep them going in a north-west, | 0:01:12 | 0:01:13 | |
and it will be a fairly warm night | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
across most places | 0:01:16 | 0:01:17 | |
with temperatures in double figures, | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
it certainly on the mild side it least. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
Now, as we get on into Saturday, | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
looks like it'll stay fairly unsettled, | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
particularly in the north-west, | 0:01:25 | 0:01:26 | |
close to this area of low pressure. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:28 | |
You will notice out in the Atlantic | 0:01:28 | 0:01:29 | |
further weather systems | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
lining up to head our way. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:32 | |
So yes, in the north-west on Saturday, | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
it will be fairly cloudy, | 0:01:34 | 0:01:35 | |
breezy, with outbreaks of rain. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:36 | |
As you work your way down | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
towards the south-eastern corner, | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
fewer in the way of showers. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:41 | |
A lot of dry and bright weather | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
to be had here. A bit of sunshine and still | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
quite warm, 18, 19 degrees | 0:01:45 | 0:01:47 | |
in the south-eastern corner, | 0:01:47 | 0:01:48 | |
15 or so for Glasgow and for Belfast. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
Now, Saturday night into Sunday, | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
this weather system moves its way | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
across pretty much all parts of the UK. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:57 | |
There'll be some rain pretty much everywhere, | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
and then, behind that, you get | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
fresher air from the Atlantic. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
So while it will be a day of | 0:02:03 | 0:02:04 | |
sunny spells and showers on Sunday | 0:02:04 | 0:02:05 | |
and still temperatures doing | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
quite well - 15 to 19 degrees - | 0:02:07 | 0:02:08 | |
the humidity will be a bit lower, | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
so a fresher feel to things. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
Then as we head on into Monday, | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
still looking out to the Atlantic | 0:02:14 | 0:02:15 | |
for further weather systems | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
to spread their way in, | 0:02:17 | 0:02:18 | |
notice quite a few isobars, | 0:02:18 | 0:02:19 | |
quite a breezy day on Monday, | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
particularly in the north and west, | 0:02:21 | 0:02:22 | |
and there will be what looks like, | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
at this stage, quite a bit of rain | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
pushing into Wales, northern England, | 0:02:26 | 0:02:27 | |
Northern Ireland and Scotland. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
Looks like the south-east will avoid it and we'll | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
see temperatures around | 0:02:31 | 0:02:32 | |
about 17 or 18 degrees here. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
Then through Monday into Tuesday, | 0:02:34 | 0:02:35 | |
the isobars ease apart a little bit, | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
so the winds ease down as | 0:02:37 | 0:02:38 | |
the weather front slowly | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
drifts south across the UK. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:41 | |
By Tuesday, that weather front | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
sits there or thereabouts | 0:02:43 | 0:02:44 | |
across the central swathe of the UK. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
Either side of that looks largely fine and dry. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:48 | |
Could turn really quite warm | 0:02:48 | 0:02:49 | |
in the south-eastern corner, | 0:02:49 | 0:02:50 | |
could go a few degrees higher than 22. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
Looking ahead to | 0:02:53 | 0:02:54 | |
the middle of the week, | 0:02:54 | 0:02:55 | |
we have still got low pressure | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
to the north-west and some weather fronts | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
associated with that are likely to bring some rain. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
That will slip its way southwards and eastwards, | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
and then the low drifts away | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
towards the near continent. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:06 | |
By next weekend, we start to see high pressure | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
building in from the west. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:10 | |
The resulting winds, though, | 0:03:10 | 0:03:11 | |
look like they'll be coming down from the north - | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
never a particularly warm direction for us. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
As we get on into next weekend, | 0:03:15 | 0:03:16 | |
you will notice things getting a good deal cooler | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
and it also looks quite changeable. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
Rain at times, some quite heavy, | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
and it's also going to be quite breezy. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
In fact, for some, | 0:03:25 | 0:03:26 | |
particularly in the north-west, | 0:03:26 | 0:03:27 | |
those winds could be quite strong. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 |
