Hello there. There's no extreme weather on the way

0:00:020:00:04

for the early part of July, but before we look ahead,

0:00:040:00:06

let's take a quick look back at June.

0:00:060:00:08

And this was the maximum temperatures.

0:00:080:00:10

It's been one of the warmest Junes on record,

0:00:100:00:13

helped by all the heat

0:00:130:00:14

that we had around the middle part of the month,

0:00:140:00:16

especially in the south-east.

0:00:160:00:17

The warmer colours there, the reds,

0:00:170:00:19

showing significantly above average temperatures.

0:00:190:00:22

And the blues showing significantly above average rainfall.

0:00:220:00:25

It's been one of the wettest Junes on record.

0:00:250:00:28

In fact, this is the first month we've had

0:00:280:00:30

significantly above average rainfall

0:00:300:00:32

for the past 12 months.

0:00:320:00:34

Now we have seen the rain easing off

0:00:340:00:37

over the last 24 hours or so.

0:00:370:00:39

This cloud not quite as thick or as threatening

0:00:390:00:42

as it was just a few days ago.

0:00:420:00:43

It's going to be into Europe that will see

0:00:430:00:45

most of the rain on Saturday,

0:00:450:00:47

as the pressure here is that bit lower.

0:00:470:00:49

We've got a bump of high pressure

0:00:490:00:50

coming in to us at the moment,

0:00:500:00:52

but with low-pressure

0:00:520:00:53

steering to the north of Scotland,

0:00:530:00:54

this weather front will trail into the north-west

0:00:540:00:56

and spoil things a bit on Saturday.

0:00:560:00:58

So clouding over in western Scotland,

0:00:580:01:00

Northern Ireland, there'll be

0:01:000:01:01

some rain or drizzle,

0:01:010:01:02

no great amounts that all.

0:01:020:01:03

Probably dry in eastern Scotland

0:01:030:01:05

and dry across England and Wales

0:01:050:01:07

and here too there'll be some good spells

0:01:070:01:09

of sunshine where temperatures widely

0:01:090:01:11

getting up to 21 or 22, 24 in the south-east

0:01:110:01:13

quite likely, even getting up 20 degrees

0:01:130:01:15

in eastern Scotland.

0:01:150:01:16

That's significantly higher

0:01:160:01:18

than it was just the other day

0:01:180:01:19

when it was 12 degrees, of course,

0:01:190:01:20

in Edinburgh in the rain.

0:01:200:01:22

This rain, though, does move its way

0:01:220:01:23

clear of Scotland and Northern Ireland

0:01:230:01:25

during the evening and overnight

0:01:250:01:26

continues to push towards the south-east

0:01:260:01:28

and it'll give enough rain

0:01:280:01:30

to just wet the gardens.

0:01:300:01:31

Clearer skies following towards the north

0:01:310:01:34

and temperatures slipping away to 11 or 12,

0:01:340:01:35

but quite windy for a while

0:01:350:01:37

in northern Scotland with those showers.

0:01:370:01:39

The winds ease down a bit on Sunday

0:01:390:01:41

and this rain in the south-east

0:01:410:01:42

and East Anglia takes a few hours

0:01:420:01:44

to clear away in the morning.

0:01:440:01:45

The cloud eventually breaking up,

0:01:450:01:47

sunny spells developing in most areas

0:01:470:01:49

and warm in the sunshine again,

0:01:490:01:51

but a few drizzly showers

0:01:510:01:52

coming into the north-west of Scotland

0:01:520:01:55

on that weather system there,

0:01:550:01:56

but that weather system

0:01:560:01:58

quite typical of the week ahead.

0:01:580:02:00

It's going to be very weak.

0:02:000:02:01

We're not seeing the large amounts

0:02:010:02:03

of rain that we've had over the last week,

0:02:030:02:05

so more a band of cloud,

0:02:050:02:07

some rain or drizzle moving away from Scotland

0:02:070:02:09

and Northern Ireland into north-west England

0:02:090:02:12

and Wales on Monday.

0:02:120:02:13

There may be a few showers ahead of that,

0:02:130:02:15

but, for the most part,

0:02:150:02:16

the south-east should be dry

0:02:160:02:17

and warm for the start of Wimbledon.

0:02:170:02:19

But this weather front

0:02:190:02:20

just going to hang around a little bit.

0:02:200:02:21

There's nothing much to move it on at all.

0:02:210:02:23

A little area of low pressure

0:02:230:02:24

delaying the progress,

0:02:240:02:25

so across southern parts of England into Wales,

0:02:250:02:29

maybe the Midlands, we could see more cloud,

0:02:290:02:30

a little bit of rain.

0:02:300:02:32

The details still quite uncertain, actually.

0:02:320:02:34

And to the north it'll be drier,

0:02:340:02:35

brighter, a little bit cooler,

0:02:350:02:37

actually, with one or two showers.

0:02:370:02:38

Some warmth across southern England.

0:02:380:02:41

The real warmth is not far away, actually.

0:02:410:02:43

And it could well induce

0:02:430:02:44

some of these thundery showers

0:02:440:02:46

just across the continent,

0:02:460:02:47

but 23 in London. It may well be dry.

0:02:470:02:50

Across the far north-west of Scotland,

0:02:500:02:52

the weather front here may bring some rain.

0:02:520:02:54

Now, as we head into the week,

0:02:540:02:56

we're going to find this zone or flow

0:02:560:02:57

sort of west-east flow

0:02:570:02:59

typified by the jet stream.

0:02:590:03:01

It's sort of wishy-washy weather

0:03:010:03:03

that will continue.

0:03:030:03:04

With this sort of pattern,

0:03:040:03:06

you tend to find areas of low pressure

0:03:060:03:07

getting steered to the north-west

0:03:070:03:09

of the UK and higher pressure

0:03:090:03:10

more towards the south.

0:03:100:03:12

It doesn't mean it's going to be wet in the north all the time

0:03:120:03:14

or dry in the south all the time. It's going to be a mixture.

0:03:140:03:17

There will be some thicker spells of cloud and some rain,

0:03:170:03:20

but equally we'll see some good dry weather and some sunshine

0:03:200:03:23

and, if anything, it's probably going to be a warming trend

0:03:230:03:26

as we move later

0:03:260:03:28

into next week. Goodbye.
