that tournament. but that is all we had time for. from me, tulsen tollett, and from the team, goodbye for now. —— that is all we have time for. good morning. last week, the weather was pretty changeable, wasn't it? this week, it's more of the same, i'm afraid. in fact, if we take a look back at last week, parts of eastern england had over 60 millimetres of rain. that's pretty close to a month's worth in just a 36—hour period. and certainly, the south—east has been the wettest of the weather. pretty much close to normal, at the moment, so far this august, in scotland and northern ireland. in fact, last week, we had some decent spells of sunshine in western scotland. on wednesday, you can see this beautiful picture sent in by one of our weather watchers — there was over 13.5 hours of sunshine, and a high of 21 degrees in glasgow.

but generally speaking, last week, the jetstream was to the south. so we were on the colder side of the jetstream and the more unsettled one for some. through the weekend, though, the jetstream moved steadily north. that allowed for decent spells of sunshine for many of us and also some warmth, particularly along the kent coast, with temperatures in the mid—20s. but it has all changed as we move through monday, with wet and windy weather pushing in. the heaviest of the rain will always be across scotland through the morning. it'll be fairly ragged as it moves through wales and south—west england. but in the south—east, we keep the dry, sunny weather, and the warmth. 24 degrees not out of the question, again, in the london area. but that rain will pep up over south—west england and wales overnight. not too much in the south—east corner, but some rain to clear overnight on monday into tuesday. it will do so so, then we have a showery regime with these weather fronts sitting across the country.

some of the showers will be potentially heavy and thundery as well. but if you dodge the showers, it won't feel too bad. we could see highs of 24 degrees. a little bit cooler and fresher with some showers to the north—west. a brief ridge of high pressure builds for us before a change is sitting in the wings waiting for us for wednesday. 0n the whole, wednesday looks promising on the whole, particularly in sheltered eastern areas. eventually, winds will strengthen with the rain pushing on. so the south—east will see the highest values. out to the west, a little more disappointing. then from wednesday night into thursday, we will see wet and windy weather pushing across the country. gales on the coast in particular. this week, starting with sun and warmth, but then heavy showers, but feeling cooler later on. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe. i'm duncan golestani. our top stories: america's top general prepares
