3:56 am
most of the cloud will affect the north and west of scotland, northern ireland. some spots of rain for north—western scotland. best of the sunshine in the north, across eastern scotland. we should see temperatures reach 21—23 degrees here, but for england and wales, dry and sunny. temperatures reaching the mid—20s, so not quite as warm as friday. it's going to be dry, lots of sunshine at wimbledon for the women's final. notice that — 29 degrees. for the men's final on sunday, it's going to be even hotter. now, through saturday night, much of the country will stay dry. still some splashes of rain across northern scotland. we'll have more cloud, more breeze here. elsewhere, further south, under clear skies, light winds, could see the odd mist or fog patch. and for most of us, temperatures will stick into low double figures. then, for sunday morning, we wake up to one or two mist and fog patches for england and wales. otherwise, it's going to be another dry and sunny day here. more sunshine as well for scotland and northern ireland, away from the very far north—west of scotland, where we'll see further cloud. so it'll be warmer in the north, the low to mid 20s. but for england and wales, very warm indeed — high 20s, perhaps 30 degrees
3:57 am
across the south—east. and sea breezes will start to pick up as winds will be light. into monday, our area of high pressure shifts towards the eastern side of the country. that will allow winds to come up from the south, so it'll be even warmer and sunnier for england and wales. we start to see some cloud developing across scotland and northern ireland. this weather front will bring some rain into the northern and western isles later on, so turning a little bit cooler here. as you head further south, though, we see those temperatures mid to high 20s, up to 31 or 32 in the south—east. another very warm day on tuesday, but notice these weather fronts working their way in off the atlantic. barely anything on them as they work across england and wales, so there is no useful rainfall in sight for next week. some splashes across scotland and northern ireland. it will cool down a little bit as those fronts move in in england and wales, and then it's likely to warm up again by the end of the week.
