00:00Hello there and a very good morning to you on this Friday morning, which is fine for most.
00:05Not the case across Northern Ireland and western fringes of Scotland.
00:08We do have a weather front here bringing outbreaks of rain, a bit of a breeze as well.
00:12High pressure which influenced us through Thursday, drifting towards Scandinavia now.
00:18This is a weakening front, introducing more clouds, some showery bursts.
00:22Most of the wet weather will be across Scotland, the far north of England.
00:24As we see more rain arrive across the northwest on Sunday, the winds pick up towards the north.
00:30But temperatures will recover and settled in the south.
00:33Now through this morning, it's a mix of low clouds, some mist and fog patches, but also some clearer skies allowing for some sunshine.
00:39Fine also for southern Scotland, northwest England.
00:42But you can see where this cloud and rain is across Northern Ireland, pushing towards the Isle of Man and the western side of Scotland.
00:48Quite a breeze here further east across Scotland, some clearer skies, a bit chilly, but more clouds across Aberdeenshire and Angerswold could see the odd spot or two of drizzle.
00:57So through this morning, the cloud will slowly break across England and Wales, away from the western side of Wales, where you'll see filaments of rain just clipping that western side.
01:08Elsewhere, yes, broken cloud allowing for some sunshine.
01:11Notice there's not a lot of forcing on this weather front.
01:13It is attempting to push in across western parts of Scotland, but certainly across central and eastern areas, a fine end to the day and a mix of cloud and sunshine elsewhere.
01:23This will allow temperatures to rise to around 16 to 18 degrees Celsius, cooler along that east coast.
01:29And under the cloud, yes, temperatures struggling to around 11 or 12 Celsius.
01:32So a wet day on Friday for Northern Ireland.
01:36Now, through this evening and overnight, that rain continues.
01:39It could pep up, showery bursts just coming and going.
01:42Elsewhere, some clearer skies, maybe even some mist and fog forming along this eastern strip here,
01:47as we see a little bit of wet weather extend towards West Wales, the west country, northwest England, central and western areas of Scotland.
01:53But good news on Saturday, Northern Ireland will have a much better start to the day with some fine weather, if not some sunshine.
02:00By around mid-morning into lunchtime, you can see where this weather front is.
02:05As you can see, it's a weakening affair, showery for Scotland.
02:09Some showers likely across the spine of the country down towards east Wales, central and southern England.
02:14Now, for Northern Ireland, the clouds will break one or two showers, but some drier weather.
02:19We hang on to drier conditions across eastern counties of England with some sunshine coming through.
02:24And with a change of wind direction, temperatures will be higher on this eastern strip, 14 to 16 Celsius, 20 in the southeast and even 16 across the central belt of Scotland.
02:35Here's Saturday into Sunday for you then.
02:37Cloud and rain towards the north as well as the west.
02:40The rain has cleared the east, so we'll see fine weather on Sunday with some sunshine coming through, a lighter breeze, temperatures climbing into the 20s yet again.
02:47The mid-teens for Northern Ireland as well as the central belt of Scotland.
02:51The rain continues there across the north as well as the west with a stronger wind.
02:55Wherever you are, have a wonderful Friday.
02:57I'll see you again soon.
