rainfall around the corner and have rainfall around the corner and on the satellite picture, the next batch of rain is working on to western areas, but the atlantic is full of shower clouds. we are going to see further downpours in the coming days. overnight tonight, the rain spreads from northern ireland across scotland, england and wales and all the while it will get windy overnight with gusty south—westerly winds in place. still mild for most of us but slightly fresher air getting into northern ireland and scotland. tomorrow morning it's going to be a windy morning, particularly for scotland where we have a squeeze on the isobars which will generate strong winds and we are talking about gus between 75 mph to 80 mph across western scotland before the winds ease later in the day. a band of rain is clearing as well. elsewhere a blustery day with gusts of a0 or 50 mph and at least one of the benefits of the strong winds is the shower clouds blow through quickly and the sunshine comes out, so the downpours won't last long. a similar story on
