exhilarating things i have done in my life. as autumn moves up, signs of winter begin to move in and even if the rugged icelandic horses need help to shelter from the coldest season of them all. every year, the atlantic farmers said to the islands and into the valley to round up their horses and bring them home for winter. the horses are driven to lower ground, to places like this. this is one of the biggest roundups in iceland. every farmer has _ roundups in iceland. every farmer has a _ roundups in iceland. every farmer has a small- roundups in iceland. every farmer has a small piece l roundups in iceland. every| farmer has a small piece of roundups in iceland. every- farmer has a small piece of the paddock. you help each other out to put the correct horses in the correct part. it takes a while but it works. i

5:57 am
you can see that cloud spilling in from the west on our earlier satellite picture. with that, though this feed of westerly winds and mild air certainly making its presence felt through the day ahead. so we can sum saturday's weather up like this, it will be mild, it will be turning windy though. increasingly windy, particularly in the north of the uk and for some there will be some outbreaks of rain, courtesy of this area of low pressure and this frontal system pushing in from the north—west. some quite heavy bursts of rain across the western side of scotland, that rain more generally pushing south—eastwards across scotland and northern ireland through the morning. that rain getting down into parts of north—west england and north wales during the afternoon. ahead of that, eastern and southern counties of england will stay predominantly dry, but rather cloudy. limited sunny spells. the skies will brighten in the north—west of the uk, but with some showers and some windy weather later in the afternoon. top temperatures 11 to 14 degrees. it will be mild out there. during saturday night we see this band of cloud and patchy
5:58 am
rain pushing across the south. more pushing into the north—west where it'll be turning very windy indeed. exposed spots in northern scotland seeing gusts of wind in excess of 60, perhaps more than 70 mph. that could cause some disruption. a relatively mild night once again — eight, nine, ten or 11 degrees to take us into sunday morning. as we start sunday, low pressure passing to the north of the uk, all the white lines, the isobars squeezing together. indicative of a windy start to the day, especially in northern scotland, we will keep some showers going through the day. most other areas will be dry and there is a decent chance of seeing some spells of sunshine through sunday afternoon. temperatures may be down a little, but still quite mild. 10—13 degrees. and then as we head through the coming week, high pressure will try to hold on towards the south of the uk. whereas we will see frontal systems from time to time pushing across northern and western areas. so what that means that the driest of the weather will be found towards the south and east, closest to that area of high pressure. more chance of rain at times towards the north—west
