hello. the soaking rain affecting wales, parts of england will gradually clear as we go on through saturday, and then the weather we have now, in scotland and northern ireland, chilly but clear, will take over across the uk for part two of the weekend on sunday. as this rain—bearing weather front eventually pulls away, we look to the north, yes, colder air is pushing southwards, but there will be sunshine on sunday. we may see a shower, most will not. before that happens, concern about rain totals mounting in parts of england but certainly into wales, especially south wales, where the met office has an amber warning infor60—80mm, more in the hills. some flooding and some travel disruption likely out of that. let's see how saturday shapes up. starting with the temperatures to begin with — a big contrast from north to south across the uk. close to freezing in parts of scotland, 15 degrees in southern england. so either side of this weather front but, notice, it is still raining through parts of southwest england, wales, the midlands and northern england to start the day. standing water on the roads.
5:57 am
some pretty horrible travelling conditions but all of this is moving southwards into east anglia and the south—east of england. drying up where it has been so wet. brightening up for many of us in wales and northern england by the end of the afternoon. sunny spells in scotland and northern ireland with a few showers. blustery winds in northern scotland. still quite windy along the south coast of england, but the winds will slowly be easing as we go deeper into the day. and the colder air is gradually winning out. just the far southeast in the rain by the end of the afternoon, holding onto temperatures into the mid teens. and that rain, after a wet saturday evening, finally then pulls away here. still a rash of showers overnight, into sunday, pushing into parts of scotland and northern ireland. wintry on the hills. clocks go back on saturday night, the end of british summertime. nothing to do with the weather but actually appropriately enough, as we go into sunday, it is the cold air, the chilly feel that has won out. but that is a big change where it has been so wet for the past few days. so a colder start across the uk on sunday morning. we may well see a touch of frost in places,
5:58 am
but this is the big difference to part two of the weekend — yes, there are still showers rattling into northern scotland and wintry on the hills, maybe one or two to northern ireland, maybe the odd exposed coast in england and wales, but for most places, it is looking, notjust dry, but it is sunny as well. there will be a chilly breeze but you may like this sort of weather compared with what we've had. good visibility and clean, crisp air as well. briefly temperatures into double figures, but they will not stay there too long and dropping quickly again on sunday night. but a big change for part two of the weekend where it has been so very, very wet the past couple of days.
6:00 am
good morning. welcome to breakfast withjon kay and sally nugent. 0ur headlines today: police arrest a fourth person over the deaths of 39 people in a lorry as details emerge of distressing messages believed to have been sent by a woman inside. a state of emergency is declared in parts of california as wildfires force 50,000 people from their homes. good morning. an incredible night for leicester city. they thrash southampton 9—0 to equal the record for the biggest win in premier league history. and it is a huge morning for england — their rugby world cup semifinal against the mighty new zealand kicks off in just three hours.
