you can get all the latest sports news at our website. that's bbc.com/sport. but from me, gavin ramjaun, and the rest of the sport today team, goodbye. hello. it's been another very wet to 2a hours for some. western scotland, overnight into sunday, had nearly 60 millimetres of rain in places. in east anglia, we had 40—50 millimetres of rain through the course of sunday, which has resulted in flooding. and, in fact, there are a number of flood warnings in force across the rivers in scotland and england. and with more rain to come in the next 2a hours that's not good news. the grounds saturated as well. but more rain is what we have. this next dominant area of low pressure is advancing in. so we're looking at severe gale force winds through the course of the day across parts of northern and western scotland and gales in other areas in the north
1:56 am
and west as well. combined with yet more rain it will be particularly unpleasant as we go through the rush hour. we could see some mist and some fog under the clearer skies further east. but a very windy day across northern and western areas, very wet through the rush hour as well. we're not as expecting as much rain as we've had in the past 2a hours, but nevertheless the ground is saturated so it will go straight onto the roads and into the rivers. there'll be lots of spray and standing water for those travelling. and, of course, the strong and gusty winds, which will eventually blow the rain away from scotland and northern ireland, allow some brighter skies, but heavy showers to follow. and it could take much of the day for that rain to get into southern and eastern areas, once the fog has cleared away. it doesn't look as wet for east anglia as it was during the day on sunday. but nevertheless more rain is not good news. now, it does meander its way into the near continent as we head into tuesday morning. it's very close by, so it drags its heels a little bit. and then that low pressure is moving a little closer
1:57 am
to the north—west of scotland. so still windy in northern and western areas. but windier, potentially, across england and wales on tuesday, which will blow the showers in. so it's more of a showery day. but the showers will tend to merge at times to give longer spells of rain. strong and gusty winds will blow them right the way east across england and across scotland, northern ireland, and wales as well. and they will be heavy. there will be torrential downpours with hail and with lightning and therefore thunder. but temperatures are doing quite well. no real frost worries this week. temperatures by day a little above average or around average. another very showery picture, as you can seem on wednesday, perhaps clumping together in places to give longer spells of rain. and perhaps fewer reaching eastern areas, but we're clutching at straws for the detail. the devil is in the detail this week. but it does look very showery for most of us. of course there will be some sunshine, but it will often be quite windy with that low pressure sat close by. no sooner does that one start to move away, by the end of the week we have another area of low pressure coming in and yet more weather fronts with those. so as ever you can stay up—to—date on the website.
