00:00 Hello, welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office. High pressure trying
00:04 to remain in charge as we head through the rest of the weekend. But low pressure out
00:08 towards the north brings some frontal systems sinking their way southwards as we go into
00:12 the new working week. That does mean that the area of high pressure slowly pushes away
00:16 towards the northwest, particularly through Tuesday and Wednesday, bringing us a northerly
00:20 flow across the UK, so those temperatures dropping just a little below average. Low
00:24 pressure never too far away though out in the Atlantic and that likely bringing some
00:28 more unsettled weather as we head through the second half of the week. Back to this
00:32 evening though and plenty of cloud and rain around for the northern half of the UK, particularly
00:36 eastern parts of Scotland, northern England as that band of rain slowly pushes its way
00:40 southwards overnight Sunday and into the start of Monday. Southern and eastern parts of England
00:45 generally staying that little bit drier with plenty of clear skies around and that does
00:49 mean quite a chilly night to come in the south east, we could see some frost in places with
00:53 temperatures quite widely dropping down into the low single figures here. Not quite as
00:57 cold underneath all that cloud and rain and for northern parts of Scotland as well, temperatures
01:00 generally holding up into the mid to high single figures. So it does mean though Monday
01:06 starts a bit of a cloudier day across the board, particularly compared to what we saw
01:10 over the weekend. That area of rain continues to push its way southwards through Monday
01:14 morning and in towards the afternoon, not turning particularly heavy but definitely
01:18 greyer and a bit more damp than we saw over the weekend. The south east of England still
01:22 holding onto a bit more hazy sunshine through the morning but it's northern parts of Scotland
01:25 that will definitely see the best of the sunshine through the afternoon. And away from any northerly
01:29 breeze it will be feeling quite warm here too, highs of 14, 15, maybe 16 degrees. However
01:35 for England and Wales not quite as warm, highs here of any 11 or 12 degrees. Through the
01:40 rest of Monday evening that area of cloud and rain continues to push its way southwards
01:45 and starts to clear northern parts of Scotland and England. So turning drier here with plenty
01:50 of clear skies overnight. Still remaining quite cloudy though for England and Wales,
01:53 so quite a mild night here under that cloud and rain. However further north under those
01:57 clear skies turning quite chilly once again with temperatures dropping down into the low
02:01 single figures and we could even see some frost in places. But again not quite as cold
02:05 underneath that cloud and rain. So a cloudy start for much of England on Tuesday. That
02:10 area of rain eventually clears its way towards the south east but it does take quite a while
02:14 to do so. However for Northern Ireland, Wales, parts of Northern England and Scotland it
02:19 will be a much brighter start to the morning. Plenty of sunshine as we head towards the
02:22 afternoon, maybe one or two showers across North Sea coastal regions but still remaining
02:26 very cloudy across the very far south east with outbreaks of rain at times. With that
02:30 northerly breeze though not quite as warm as we saw over the weekend. Highs in the south
02:34 of only 13 or 14 degrees and maybe 10, 11, 12 degrees across parts of Scotland at best.
02:41 Through the rest of Tuesday that area of rain eventually clears its way towards the south
02:44 east but further showers on their way through Wednesday and Thursday and the hints of that
02:48 area of low pressure arriving later in the week. But make sure you subscribe to our YouTube
02:52 channel so you find out more about that closer to the time. Bye bye!
