5:57 pm
# from hazy tomorrow # hello # what dreams do you follow? well, it's been a very dry summer so far, and we really do need some more rainfall, particularly for drought stricken areas. but if you've got outdoor plans this bank holiday weekend, then i dare say you'll be fairly happy with the weather forecast. it is set to stay mostly dry. there'll be some sunny spells around, the small chance of an isolated shower, but it will turn rather breezy towards the south of england and wales in particular. now, it's high pressure that's keeping us dry. it's sitting towards
5:58 pm
the north of the uk. it will gradually start to push a little further eastwards. it's not a bank holiday weekend in scotland and it's here where we have a warm front overnight tonight, just throwing more cloud into eastern areas of scotland. see maybe few outbreaks of rain towards the west, otherwise dry. a milder night in scotland than we saw last night. temperatures will stay in double figures, quite cloudy in northern ireland. clear skies across much of england and wales. temperatures here dropping to between ten and 14 degrees celsius. a few early mist patches into tomorrow morning and then tomorrow. well, it's more of the same. could be a few outbreaks of rain towards the western isles, but other than that, it's mostly dry but quite cloudy across scotland. a few breaks in the cloud maybe towards the far southwest. glasgow could see 22 degrees celsius. some breaks across northern ireland, but generally cloudy, best of the sunshine across england and wales. small chance of an isolated shower and again cooler towards those north sea facing coasts with the northeasterly winds. now, as we head through sunday and into monday, our area of high pressure just starts to push eastward. so the north easterly wind is set to strengthen. and towards those eastern facing coasts, there will generally be a lot more cloud. there could be one or two showers
5:59 pm
just running in on that breeze at times, too. so the best of the sunshine will really tend to be out towards the west and this is where the highest temperatures will tend to be as well. it's really quite windy across much of southern england here. temperatures towards parts of devon and cornwall maybe and south wales as high as 2a, 25 degrees celsius away from the strength of the wind. and of course over the bank holiday weekend, we see a return to the notting hill carnival. you'd be unlucky to catch a shower, but there could be a few knocking around at times sunny spells and certainly mostly dry with temperatures in the low 20s in celsius. and here is the outlook as we head through the rest of the week. so you can see it's looking pretty similar, really temperatures in the high teens for scotland and northern ireland, the low 20s for much of england and wales. there will be some sunny spells at times.
6:00 pm
this is bbc news. the headlines at 6pm... the government says middle—income earners will need more help to pay their energy bills, notjust the poorest. but ministers claim waiting until a new leader is in place is the best approach. i think it's right that when they become prime minister, whoever it is, they will want to look at all of the options properly costed. two men arrested on suspicion of murdering nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel, who was shot dead in her home in liverpool, have been released on bail. a national emergency has been declared in pakistan after millions of people were forced from their homes. it follows the heaviest monsoon rains in decades. it's been more than ten days of heavy rains and yet the streets of sukkur are still flooded. this is one of the main roads linking this community to the outside world.
