There's a lot happening over the next 48 hours, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
so we are going to concentrate on that period quite a bit, | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
and then just a flavour of what we can expect in the next week or so. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:12 | |
A fair bit of snow around, | 0:00:12 | 0:00:13 | |
certainly Scotland, Northern Ireland, | 0:00:13 | 0:00:16 | |
parts of Wales and the Midlands, | 0:00:16 | 0:00:18 | |
but the snow showers | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
fell in distinct areas. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:21 | |
We saw these streaks of snow showers | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
moving in from the northwest | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
so some of us had snow, | 0:00:26 | 0:00:28 | |
others had nothing but clear blue skies | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
during the course of the day, | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
so there have been some big contrasts in the weather | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
during Friday. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
Through the night, | 0:00:37 | 0:00:38 | |
we can expect some more showers | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
across Wales, possibly Northern Ireland, | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
but northern parts of Scotland, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
where the wind is blowing hard, | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
so across the hills we are talking about blizzards. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
It'll be cold. In rural spots, | 0:00:49 | 0:00:50 | |
it might dip to minus 5, minus 8, | 0:00:50 | 0:00:53 | |
so tomorrow - an ice risk across many | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
northern and western areas, | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
other than that, it's sunshine from the word go | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
for many, and it is going to be a cold day. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
It'll feel as if it's below freezing | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
right across the country, | 0:01:06 | 0:01:07 | |
but there will be snow showers around | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
in parts of Wales, northwest England. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:12 | |
Places like Liverpool, maybe Manchester | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
catching a few flakes of snow. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
Now the interesting period. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
Through Saturday night - | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
a lot of cold air, a widespread frost, | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
a new, fresh weather front bumps into that cold air | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
and look what happens - snow across Ireland, | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
Northern Ireland, Wales, the Midlands, | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
East Anglia, northern England. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
In fact, many of us waking up | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
to a significant covering of snow | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
first thing on Sunday. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
A good job it's not happening during the week, | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
working week, at the rush hour, | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
because that would be very disruptive snow. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
By the time we get to Sunday afternoon, | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
that snow will be petering out across northern parts. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
To the south, it'll be very windy, gale-force winds, | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
and a lot milder, thanks to this low pressure | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
moving away. One moves away, | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
and then, Monday, another low pressure, | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
potentially a storm, | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
impacts France, and to the north of that, | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
there could be some snow | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
falling across more southern parts, | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
possibly nudging into the London area, | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
but this will be very transient snow. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
It's not going to last for very long. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |
It might last for a couple of hours and then move away | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
with the low pressure pushing out into the Continent. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
One low moves away | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
and we're in this ridge of high pressure, | 0:02:26 | 0:02:29 | |
so Tuesday is expected to be a quieter day, | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
still pretty cold, might be milder across the far southwest, | 0:02:32 | 0:02:36 | |
but lots of sunshine, certainly starting frosty, | 0:02:36 | 0:02:39 | |
then sun during the afternoon. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
Wednesday - looks like we're picking up more south-westerly winds, | 0:02:41 | 0:02:45 | |
there could be weather fronts bringing rainfall to western areas, | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
and it'll turn less cold, | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
possibly back up to double figures | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
by the time we get to the middle part of the week. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
11 degrees in Plymouth. If you | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
were watching this time yesterday, | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
the thinking was that the colder air | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
is going to win and stick around. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
It looks as though the jet stream | 0:03:04 | 0:03:06 | |
is going to be pushing milder air | 0:03:06 | 0:03:08 | |
in our direction later next week. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
So that snow risk is going to be | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
less through next week, | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
as it turns colder, and more than anything, | 0:03:15 | 0:03:18 | |
it's going to be spells of rain and wind, | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
so over the weekend, next 48 hours or so, | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
we are going to get snow, | 0:03:24 | 0:03:26 | |
and then things calm down. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 |
