8:56 pm
statistics from the met office. as we move to the end of the month and into the start of october, there is more autumn warmth on the way. but that's not the whole story, some rain at times. and on the satellite picture from earlier on today, you can see this area of cloud to the south—west of us. that is tomorrow's weather maker, that will bring some of us some outbreaks of rain. in the short—term, most of today's showers will fade through the night. we will keep some going in the far north of scotland and maybe for western coastal fringes. a few mist patches, but some clear skies overhead, allowing it to turn relatively chilly. nothing unusual, though, for a late september night. saturday morning then, will dawn with this ridge of high pressure and a lot of dry weather, some spells of sunshine. but here comes our approaching weather system. that will start to introduce some high cloud, turning the sunshine hazy. and then as the cloud thickens out towards the west, we will see some outbreaks of rain getting into the north and the west of wales. northern ireland turning very wet indeed.
