goodbye. hello there. part two of the weekend is looking pretty similar to how it was yesterday — sunshine and showers, but i don't think the showers will be quite as heavy, or certainly not quite as widespread as what we had yesterday. but again, eastern parts of the uk will see some of the heaviest of the thunderstorms and showers today, whereas further west we've got this weather front bringing light and patchy rain to northern ireland in between some good spells of sunshine. so for the rest of the day, it will stay rather cloudy with outbreaks of rain across northern ireland, skies brightening up from the west later. western scotland, western parts of britain seeing some sunshine. most of the heavy showers will be affecting eastern scotland and eastern parts of england, again, some torrential downpours in a few places. and top temperatures 21—22 celsius here, high teens further north and west. so for the reading and leeds festival today, i think the better chance of staying dry will be across reading.
6:56 pm
for the leeds festival, i think you could pick up a few showers, which could be on the heavy side. same too for notting hill carnival. i think today is a greater risk of seeing showers, and what we'll see tomorrow, i think it could stay largely dry with good sunny spells. now, as we move through this evening, overnight, the showers mostly fade away. that weather front, a weakening feature, spreads across central and eastern england. just a band of patchy cloud on it. and it will be quite a cool night to come again, particularly out of town under those clear skies, single digits likely for many of us. now for monday — and of course, monday is a bank holiday for most of us — it's looking like being a fairly good day, i think, quite a bit of sunshine around. into the afternoon, the shower clouds may bubble up. you could see the odd light shower here and there, but most places should stay dry. and top temperatures, 21 celsius,
6:57 pm
it's the high teens further north, and winds will be light, as well. as we move out on monday into tuesday, things change again. the low pressure starts to push into the north of the uk. that'll bring stronger winds, blustery showers certainly to scotland, some of these showers could be quite heavy. elsewhere, some good sunny spells, but this weather front will be spreading across england and wales, bringing a band of showers, but it will become confined to southern and eastern areas by the end of the day with quite a bit of sunshine, i think, developing behind it. top temperatures around 22 celsius. cooler than that, though, further north where it will be quite blustery. wednesday, at this stage, not too bad thanks to a ridge of high pressure, but then it turns more unsettled for thursday and friday. could be quite wet in places particularly across england and wales.
