he can get all the information in the latest from the premier league and the usual place. but from me and at the rest of the team here, thank you for watching and we will see you again next time. hello there. temperatures will continue to fluctuate through the rest of this week. on sunday, of course, we saw temperatures in highland, scotland of 20 celsius. and after a frost, typical temperatures monday afternoon were 6 celsius. highest temperatures this time were across southern parts of the uk. cloud breaking up here and there to give some sunshine and 1a degrees in cambridgeshire. in between, we had thicker cloud on these weather fronts, an area of low pressure, bringing some wet weather, that's moving away into the north sea. so it is turning drier. keeping more cloud, though, for england and wales. that'll keep the temperatures up.
12:56 am
clearer skies for scotland and northern ireland. it could be a frosty start early in the morning, but the promise of more sunshine for scotland and northern ireland. a cloudy start for england and wales. still a bit dampness in the east, but we'll see some sunshine developing more widely as the cloud retreats back towards east anglia and the south—east. here, temperatures could make double figures, but i think 7—8 degrees is going to be nearer the mark. it could be the odd shower coming into north—west scotland, especially as the breeze picks up later in the day. and if we look to the north, by wednesday, this deep low is pushing between iceland and scotland, really strengthening the winds overnight. very windy for scotland, widespread gales, gusts of 80 miles an hour for a while in the far north. and this squally band of rain sweeps into scotland and northern ireland, picking the winds up here, gusty winds and some rain in the far north of england. further south across england and wales, the winds much lighter. and after a chilly, bright start, the cloud will increase and we'll see top temperatures of ten or 11 degrees. that weather front bringing that rain move southwards but weakens, so little or no rain coming into southern parts of the uk. and then another weather
12:57 am
front following in from the atlantic, eventually towards the north—west. but a dry, bright start with some sunshine for many, a little bit chilly on thursday. we will see the cloud increasing in northern ireland and particularly scotland with some rain arriving in the north—west, but still some sunshine for england and wales, although their temperatures will be a little bit lower on thursday, around nine degrees celsius. but those temperatures rise again for the end of the week. this strengthening south—westerly wind will bring with it some higher temperatures on friday. but because the winds are coming a long way over the atlantic, it will come with a lot of cloud, a little light rain or drizzle, mainly across western parts of scotland. but those temperatures by the end of the week on the mild side, again, widely 13 or 1a celsius.
