hello there. this is typical british summertime in a way, three fine days and a thunderstorm. we've had the heat far wide again today, just had the hardest september day in scotland since 1906, it was around london, heathrow that we saw the highest temperatures with 30 degrees. but in the south—west earlier today we had some thunder and lightning and also some flash flooding in devon. those storms have since moved away, but we still have an area of low pressure circulating to the southwest of the uk and there's another band of storm that's developing in france to bring some wetter weather towards more eastern parts of southern england. on top of that, it is still very warm. these are the temperatures at 11 o'clock tonight 20, 21 degrees and quite a few places and muggy, too. and if that wasn't enough, we've got this thunder and lightning and heavy downpours to come across southeast england moving up across east anglia and moving up into north england with more showers coming back into wales in the southwest. so, a lot of cloud around overnight, and these are
6:58 pm
the temperatures by the end of the night. as we head into tomorrow, we've still got some heavy, thundery rain to move away from eastern england. moving northwards into scotland, and elsewhere, we are going to find showers breaking out more widely. these are going to be quite slow moving and they could turn heavy and thundery, bringing a risk of some localised flooding. where we're drier perhaps in the afternoon across more eastern parts of england, temperatures still warm for this time of year. it's just not as hot as it has been of late. and temperatures are dropping and we are getting the wetter weather essentially because low pressure is moving in. and that's drifting up from the southwest, moving northwards across the uk and it's dropping the temperatures and dropping a lot of rain in places. not everywhere, mind you — many places start dry on friday but we're likely to find some more slow—moving downpours developing all the way from southern scotland southwards.
6:59 pm
that again could bring some flash flooding, and those temperatures are going to be more typically back to 20 or 21 celsius by the end of the week. so, the heat is subsiding, a lot of rain in the forecast. as we head into the weekend, low pressure starts to move away and things should start to calm down a little bit as well. on saturday, we may still have quite a few showers to come in scotland, but generally this weekend, there's fewer showers, lighter showers, a lot of cloud and temperatures are going to be near—normal for this time of the year.
