of people will say this is a good idea, if you many things, on one side of the political balance sheet, you can get difficult for the royals, but we are seeing both of them, charles and william, configure their rules together, they now work more closely together, you can see nudges to the system that they are trying to bring in. of course, somebody else has to take it forward, they have to be careful that they do not do too many things at once, which they seem to be calling for things to be set up which someone else has to set off and do, some people might say that is a bit royal, they don't have to do the work to set up. the commonwealth is coming into the reckoning with the post—colonial legacy and prince charles are taking that particular bull by the horns. we have just under a that particular bull by the horns. we havejust under a minute that particular bull by the horns. we have just under a minute to celebrate support mccartney and dave grohl and bruce springsteen —— paul mccartney. talk about magical. it

hello, everyone. i hope you're doing all right. well, we had a plentiful supply of heavy, blustery showers yesterday and more of that to come for many of us today. but we are seeing some brightness, so it's not a complete write off as far as the unsettled weather is concerned. and the reason we're seeing this is down to what we're having here on the pressure chart, an area of low pressure. this is nearby, it's not really going anywhere in a hurry. you can see the winds swirling around it here and the winds are introducing those heavy, blustery downpours. so showery spells of rain moving in from western parts. you can see the weather frontier trailing from parts of scotland, northern ireland to the northwest of england, western parts of wales, eventually creeping into the south west of england as well. there is a bit of an east—west split today, however, the further east you go, the drier it is and the warmer it is. top temperatures 23 celsius across southeastern parts of england, whereas parts of wales, northern ireland in particular cooler. and we'll have those heavy downpours as i mentioned. now, i've spoken about the winds already thanks to the presence of that low pressure.

these are the wind gusts in excess of a0 to 50 miles per hour across the isle of man, parts of anglesey, western coastal fringes, for example. yes, it will be breezy or blustery further east, but not quite as windy here. how is it looking at glastonbury? well, it will be quite windy at times, i think, with some heavy showers, but it will brighten up and i think we will see some sunshine at times. let's head through this evening, then. the weather front is very slowly creeping across towards the east, introducing those heavy downpours with it. again, we could hear the odd rumble of thunder, i think eastern parts of england remaining dry, but we can't rule out the odd shower here as well. top temperatures reaching 11 or 12 celsius as far as our lows are concerned tonight. now, the low pressure i was speaking of earlier is moving away towards the north, but we are shortly going to be joined by another low. this is creeping in from the west as we head through the next 2a hours or so. so monday starts off dry for many of us. we still have those heavy downpours.

however, they're moving across towards the east. here's the low pressure introducing that weather front into parts of northern ireland. another windy one, i think. these are the average wind speeds, but gusts in excess of what we're seeing there. and at top, temperatures quite similar about 22 or 23 celsius, fairly unsettled at times this week, i think, thanks to the low pressure. but temperatures will rise a bit for a time. we'll keep you posted. see you soon.
