the temperatures are above freezing already. but touching freezing early in the night. this is what happens through the course of the morning. so the weather front moves to the east, west to east, so you can see the back edge and rain getting into the western isles and northern ireland. so through the morning, in belfast, for example, the weather will actually be improving, after a damp end to the night. it is raining at this stage, so nine o'clock across the north—west in england, lancashire, wales, into the south—west, but across the heart, the east midlands, east anglia, down to the south—east, it is actually bright. i wouldn't be surprised even by some blue sky for a time. but not for very long, because by the latter part of the morning, that weather front moves in and it's overcast across many parts of the country, at least in central and southern areas. in scotland, bright and windy, very windy in the western isles and the far north of scotland. gale force winds, and at 70 miles an hour. compared to the rest of europe on saturday, london will be about 10 degrees, paris at eight. madrid nine degrees.

pretty much the same across many parts of western and south—western parts of europe. rome will be about 15. back home, here's the low pressure late on saturday into sunday. that will bring severe gales to scotland. blustery conditions throughout the pennines as well. but the isobars are coming from the south—west, meaning that the south—westerly winds will continue into sunday. in this sort of weather situation, we have a lot of cloud. it is mild. temperatures might even touch about 1a or 15 degrees, which is mild for this time of year. with that, rain around, particularly across northern and north—western areas of the uk. but double figures, i think, for most of us. still staying mild in the south—westerly winds. a bit of rain around in this on monday. that will move southwards, but a shift in the wind direction here in the north means that it will turn a little bit colder. so i think single figures, even about five degrees, there. no more than that in aberdeen.

have a good weekend. welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe. i'm duncan golestani. our top stories: aftermath of a scandal. the entire board of us gymnastics is to resign in the wake of the scandal surrounding the sexual abuse of young athletes by larry nassar. president trump stands by his america first policies for trade, but insists when america grows, so does the world. police in canada say a billionaire and his wife were murdered in a targeted killing. and paris braces itself for more flooding as water levels are set to peak this weekend.
