00:00Hello, welcome to your latest weather update from the Met Office. Whilst Tuesday was a

00:05mostly dry day for much of the UK, southern counties have had quite a bit of rain. That's

00:09because of this double frontal structure here. It will gradually push its way towards the

00:13south as we go through Wednesday, with then high pressure building from the west. This

00:17will lead to drier conditions as we go through the rest of the week, but also bringing our

00:22air from the north and so we are going to see temperatures dropping.

00:26Taking a look at Tuesday evening and some wet weather then pushing a little bit further

00:29northwards perhaps reaching south Wales and into Essex as we go through the night. The

00:34rain can be heavy at times with some thunder mixed in as well. Elsewhere and apart from

00:37a few showers towards coastal parts of Scotland, it's looking like a largely dry night with

00:41some clear skies. Under the clear skies then temperatures are going to take quite a dip.

00:45Most towns and cities holding up in double figures, but we could get to the low to mid

00:49single figures Celsius in some prone spots, particularly the sheltered glens of Scotland.

00:53Notice towards the south where we have the cloudy wet weather, here it is going to stay

00:56milder. So for many a bright and a little fresh start on Wednesday morning, but a wet

01:03picture across the southern counties and the rain could be heavy at times as we head through

01:06morning rush hour and it will take a little time to clear away and so towards the far

01:11southeast I think it will be well into the afternoon before things turn fully dry and

01:14bright. Elsewhere across much of the UK it is going to be a fine day with just some showers

01:19most likely towards northern parts of Scotland. There will be some sunshine around, but despite

01:23this temperatures in the north likely to be a little bit lower than we have seen of

01:27late getting into the mid to high teens Celsius at best. In the south temperatures here perhaps

01:32a touch higher than on Tuesday because the wet weather will have cleared away and there

01:35will be some sunshine around, but it may feel a touch more comfortable or fresher for some

01:40because the humidity we have had recently will have also cleared away. As we go through

01:45the end of Wednesday then I think we will have some late sunshine across southern parts

01:49of England and also down western side into Wales and Northern Ireland and western parts

01:53of Scotland too. Notice an area of cloud towards the east may filter into parts of

01:58the Midlands as we go through the night and where the cloud lingers that will keep temperatures

02:02from falling too much, but under clear skies it is likely to be a little bit of a fresh

02:06night. Again across the sheltered glens of Scotland could get into the low single figures

02:10and notice temperatures towards the south quite a bit lower than we have seen through

02:13many recent nights. As we look through Thursday then and it will get off to a dry start, albeit

02:19a little bit cloudy for some eastern parts of England. The cloud here should break up

02:23a little bit as we go through the afternoon, but the risk of a few showers developing.

02:28Also quite a few showers across parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland, these feeding in on

02:31that northerly flow. That northerly flow is also leading to temperatures dropping a little

02:36bit further, so highs getting into the mid-teens towards the north and only just about into

02:40the high teens, perhaps scraping into the low 20s towards the south. There is more information
