2:57 pm
western parts of the uk but thick cloud has been streaming and of the atlantic further south. even through this evening and overnight we will start to see that cloud fizzling away and still some showers left over for parts of east anglia and the south—east. with light winds and clear skies it does mean mist and fog for the glens of scotland and the lowlands and i think generally for many of us early thursday morning will be a bit colder. the high—pressure is anchored over the uk on thursday and that means prolonged spells of sunshine. for many of us it's a dry and sunny day right from the word go. temperatures will be more or less the same whether you are know for south but notice whether france trying to sneak in of the atlantic out towards the west and that is a hint of things to come as we head towards the weekend. this high pressure is not going to stick around. infact pressure is not going to stick around. in fact thursday night into friday starting to show signs of slipping away towards the east and these whether france and the low pressure makes progress. by the time we
2:58 pm
get to friday it's a case of figure cloud across ireland and western parts of scotland and of rain but even here there will be a bit of sunshine. the bulk of england and wales on friday should have fine weather. temperatures about the same north—south. beyond that the weekend and into next week, look at these low pressures spinning around close to the uk, spreading showers away and even later in the week there are signs of tail end of hurricane is as —— heading away. that is still some way off. let's have a look at the summary, a bit of a mixed weekend on the way and then into next week it does look as though it's autumn full throttle with more unsettled weather on the way.
