Well, the sun finally came out on Wednesday after that deluge

0:00:020:00:05

and the gale force winds that we had -

0:00:050:00:07

disruptive winds, in some areas -

0:00:070:00:09

now the weather's going back down the hill again.

0:00:090:00:12

It isn't going to be as bad,

0:00:120:00:13

but we are expecting cloud and some rain on Thursday.

0:00:130:00:16

Now, this is that short spell of settled, much better weather

0:00:160:00:19

we had midweek, and now, later on Wednesday,

0:00:190:00:21

we saw the clouds increasing across western areas,

0:00:210:00:24

already bringing some rain here,

0:00:240:00:26

and, basically, this is the weather for Thursday.

0:00:260:00:29

So, early hours of Thursday,

0:00:290:00:31

sort of a rather elongated area of rain here.

0:00:310:00:34

This is the weather front that's sliding across the UK -

0:00:340:00:37

the winds won't be a problem,

0:00:370:00:38

it's just going to be damp for many of us.

0:00:380:00:40

Most of the heavy rain will be across these western areas -

0:00:400:00:43

and mild in the south, 13, 14 degrees,

0:00:430:00:46

so, damp and mild for many of us

0:00:460:00:47

first thing on Thursday morning.

0:00:470:00:49

That this is where the heaviest of the rain will be,

0:00:490:00:52

across Wales, here, particularly across the hills,

0:00:520:00:54

but much of the Midlands, East Anglia and the south-east,

0:00:540:00:57

probably a fairly dryish start the day.

0:00:570:00:59

We've got some rain moving into Northern Ireland

0:00:590:01:01

at this stage, the north-west of England -

0:01:010:01:03

but northern Scotland, here, actually,

0:01:030:01:05

Stornoway and Kirkwall, Lerwick,

0:01:050:01:07

probably waking up to some sunshine,

0:01:070:01:09

and much fresher here.

0:01:090:01:10

A much fresher sort of start to the day.

0:01:100:01:12

And then, through the course of Thursday,

0:01:120:01:14

this area of low pressure -

0:01:140:01:16

the centre of it is actually here -

0:01:160:01:17

this long weather front stretching across the UK,

0:01:170:01:20

well, this is where the wettest of the weather

0:01:200:01:22

is going to be, across Northern Ireland

0:01:220:01:24

through the day, north-western England,

0:01:240:01:26

eventually into central parts of Scotland.

0:01:260:01:28

To the south of that,

0:01:280:01:29

the rain is a little bit more bitty,

0:01:290:01:31

you've got spits and spots,

0:01:310:01:32

and relatively mild -

0:01:320:01:33

these are south-westerly winds coming through.

0:01:330:01:36

And then, through the course of Thursday night into Friday,

0:01:360:01:39

that low still over us -

0:01:390:01:40

there's another one heading our way,

0:01:400:01:42

but the remnants of the low is still with us here,

0:01:420:01:45

so, that means, I think, a mishmash of sunny spells,

0:01:450:01:47

a few showers, maybe, in the morning,

0:01:470:01:50

and then, in the day,

0:01:500:01:51

it actually dries out on Friday.

0:01:510:01:52

So, Friday is looking pretty good, I think,

0:01:520:01:54

for most of us across the UK -

0:01:540:01:56

bar the odd shower here and there.

0:01:560:01:57

The winds will be lighter and it will feel warmer.

0:01:570:01:59

So, at the end of the working week,

0:01:590:02:01

for most of us, looking absolutely fine.

0:02:010:02:04

Now, the weekend is, admittedly, looking very mixed.

0:02:040:02:07

So, another low pressure comes through,

0:02:070:02:09

so, we're getting low after low after low this week.

0:02:090:02:11

This is in the morning.

0:02:110:02:12

Let's have a look at it a little bit more closely, then -

0:02:120:02:15

so, a fair bit of rain around,

0:02:150:02:16

we're thinking, first thing in the morning,

0:02:160:02:18

particularly across western areas of the UK,

0:02:180:02:20

and the north-west, too,

0:02:200:02:21

and then that rain pushes northwards and eastwards,

0:02:210:02:24

and then, behind it, it sort of improves a little bit,

0:02:240:02:26

so, actually, later in the afternoon

0:02:260:02:28

on Saturday, things might brighten up.

0:02:280:02:30

So, by no means is Saturday going to be a write-off -

0:02:300:02:32

the morning might be wet, not later in the day.

0:02:320:02:35

Sunday, the low is still with us,

0:02:350:02:37

so, still relatively unsettled,

0:02:370:02:39

but I think, out of the two days,

0:02:390:02:41

Sunday is going to be the better day.

0:02:410:02:43

There'll be more dry weather around,

0:02:430:02:45

the morning will be brighter,

0:02:450:02:46

the afternoon will be bright - if not sunny -

0:02:460:02:48

in some areas, and those temperatures

0:02:480:02:50

getting up to around 23 degrees, there,

0:02:500:02:52

in the south-east.

0:02:520:02:53

Now, early next week,

0:02:530:02:54

the low pressure is still close by.

0:02:540:02:56

It's across Scandinavia -

0:02:560:02:57

it is still dragging in some cooler air

0:02:570:03:00

to northern areas,

0:03:000:03:01

but, essentially speaking,

0:03:010:03:03

I think it's a picture of sunny spells and showers.

0:03:030:03:05

Then, middle of next week,

0:03:050:03:07

the low's completely gone,

0:03:070:03:09

Jet stream's deflected here,

0:03:090:03:10

so this is where the unsettled weather is.

0:03:100:03:12

We are under the influence of a high,

0:03:120:03:14

and actually, it's probably going to be warming up, as well,

0:03:140:03:16

so, the outlook for later on next week

0:03:160:03:18

is looking pretty good.

0:03:180:03:19

It might be a cool and showery start,

0:03:190:03:21

but, then, midweek, that high-pressure -

0:03:210:03:23

I just showed you that egg-shaped high -

0:03:230:03:24

it builds, and then it's going to turn

0:03:240:03:26

a little bit warmer.

0:03:260:03:27

So, overall, looking pretty good.
