that she brings to our life, now it's time for a look at the weather with louise lear. we always say you are never good afternoon. going to get a hug like you do storm kathleen has dominated weather from a child with angelman syndrome. headlines in recent days. the storm arrived last night tricia's employer is one of the few and yes, it's bringing gale force that already have a policy gusts of winds in the far northwest. to support unpaid carers in place. it's also tapping in to some i have worked for the company for nearly 18 years now. very warm air indeed. i was there before any kids, so it's let me keep that part of me. i'm a carer but i'm also me. now, so far today, we have seen if you have policy where carers feel really free a gust of wind in excess of 90mph to talk to their manager, who will understand and make sure on the tops of cairngorm. yes, but even at lower levels they have the leave, through northern ireland, it actually causes less disruption down to the isles of scilly, and less cost to a we've had gusts in excess of 60, business than it would. close to 70mph. so the storm is anchored way out debbie's employer has trialled the five—day leave for carers, to the west of the uk and that's and it's already made a difference. allowing this south—westerly wind i love going to work. to push up some very warm airfrom africa. oh, i know that. and so temperatures really quite a dramatic difference, it's a break from me particularly in scotland where just a few days ago we were seeing from all the stuff at home. a maximum of five degrees, it is always nice to not that much in the way of rain come to home, though. cool? around for the rest of the day. yeah! sunny spells and scattered showers. abi smitton, bbc news. there will be quite a lot of cloud

i'm joined now by emily holzhausen, around from time to time director of policy and public and it will stay windy. affairs at carers uk. so inland we're looking at around 45 mile an hour plus winds out through the irish sea. i'm guessing this is welcome news for you and your organisation. it is really welcome _ we could see 65, close to 70mph wind for you and your organisation. it 3 really welcome news and it is really brilliant recognition of the huge gusts still continuing, but the temperatures will be way contribution that unpaid carers make above where they should be to society a day, every day. and it for this time of year. anywhere above 20 degrees will make it the hottest is so important, just listening to day of the year so far. debbie and others there, that it and we could see a high of 22 across east anglia, of 22 across east anglia. makes a real difference, that recognition in the workplace, so a pulse of wetter weather, often when you are caring for an some sharper showers moving their way north and east through the night. older relative or disabled relative 00:13:36,913 --> 4294966103:13:29,429 it is very much a private issue. we keep quite a lot of cloud around as well and it will stay mild through the night. double figures perhaps across the south east. so we start off tomorrow morning with a spell of wetter weather and we could see some showers just funnelling together in a fairly organised line through the south west coming up through the bristol channel towards the midlands. and here, the wind gusts could be a little bit stronger tomorrow, over 50mph at times. it'll still be mild for the time of year. we're looking at 10 to 17 degrees, the overall high. now, as we move into monday,

there's another low that could bring yet more wet and windy weather in a similar track to kathleen. so we're keeping an eye on that. a brief lull behind before another low continues to push in from the atlantic. so the weather pattern stays the same. we're looking at it staying pretty unsettled with showers or longer spells of rain. temperatures will come down just a touch. so if you are planning to spend some time outside, this is the story. rain or showers, lighter winds, temperatures about average.
