hello there. wiggonholt in west sussex was the country's hot spot on sunday, with temperatures hitting 30 degrees celsius, making it the hottest day of september so far. not that we're very far into the month, of course. there was plenty of sunshine for east anglia and south east england, but rather cloudy skies for some turned quite murky here in mousehole in cornwall. we've also seen showers and thunderstorms break out. this clump of storms that went through the north west midlands earlier brought 14mm of rain in just the space of one hour, and over the next few hours, those heavy downpours will continue to drive northwards across northern england and into scotland as well. probably another batch of heavy rain then developing behind that into parts of wales. all the while it will stay quite warm and muggy. well, that takes us into monday and monday is dominated by low pressure. we're expecting showers or some longer spells of rain. the heaviest downpours will be across northern england and scotland. probably some thunderstorms mixed in so there could be some
12:56 am
localised surface water flooding. bit of rain crosses northern ireland brighter from western counties later in the afternoon. probably quite murky around some of our irish sea coasts. maybe staying dry across east anglia and south east england, where it will continue to feel quite humid and very warm. now beyond that, as we head into tuesday, eventually we're going to start to get northwesterly winds moving back across the country, and they will bring fresher air and some slightly lower temperatures as well. now, tuesday will probably start off with some bits and pieces of rain, probably murky weatherfor some across eastern areas to clear out of the way. then some sunshine. a few showers followed to scotland, northern ireland and maybe one or two for the north—west of both england and wales. temperatures 18 to 21. feeling fresher, pleasant in the sunshine. from wednesday onwards, though, there's a lot of uncertainty in the weather forecast. two scenarios. one is that we continue to see showers work into northwestern areas, with the driest weather across the south and east of the uk, where we've got a ridge of high pressure in this scenario.
12:57 am
wednesday, thursday, friday temperatures wouldn't change very much. high teens to low 20s. a pleasant spell of weather for many. however, there is a different scenario where the weather patterns get completely flipped on their head in this second scenario. the driest weather would end up being to the north—west of the uk, and instead towards the southeast. we could end up seeing low pressure form and wet and windy weather moving in. so there's a lot of uncertainty. don't be surprised if the forecast changes then over the next few days.
