thunderstorms are going to be courtesy of this area of low pressure — which is moving its way out of the bay of biscayring the heaviest of the downpours across parts of the southwest of england, wales too. through the course of tonight though, we've also got some rain to come from the northern and eastern parts of scotland. and this area of showery rain pushing across northern england into northern ireland by the early hours of saturday. further south across england and wales, quite mild, in fact, quite muggy with those temperatures holding up in the mid teens overnight. a little bit cooler further north, but certainly quite mild. likely seeing double figures wherever you are. saturday then it brings us a day of sunshine and showers. for the bulk of england and wales, there's dry weather through the morning, there will be a bit of rain across northern and eastern scotland. but further heavy showers set to develop later in the afternoon. they will be pushing in across the channel isles towards the isle of wight. devon and cornwall too, so some thunderstorms possible here. some showers could be heavy an

and that's because we've got low pressure sat in the bay of biscay and it will feed in that humid air some brightness, but we've got quite a lot of rain to come for the north and east. so, for scotland and northern ireland, it is here where we will find the best of the dry, bright and sunny weather throughout the remainder of daylight, but overnight that rain spills its way westwards into northern ireland, to north wales, to the midlands. yes, the thunderstorms ease for a time, but it stays wet for the channel islands and it's humid. as i say, we've got lots of moisture around, so there will be mist and fog quite widely, particularly over the hills in the rain, but at lower levels across parts of the northern isles and the moraycoast. but that clears and actually the north sees the best of the drier weather again tomorrow. but everything is tending to move further northwards tomorrow. so the wet weather that we have got currently sitting in the channel islands is making its way across southern england through the course of tomorrow, giving us some brighter skies, but thundery downpour

a low pressure which decides to park itself around the bay of biscay on friday and into the weekend, there and churning around with its weather front spiralling in towards the centre of the lower, but through friday and into saturday you will see one of these weather fronts coming back in on itself almost, that could spell heavy and perhaps thundery rain for the south end of the week. the best of the weather will be in the north. this low pressure sitting here for quite some time, it will scoop up some warm and humid air in our direction. so there is lots of cloud on the way in the next few days and the threat of rain, but we will see temperatures rising and it will start to feel a lot more humid. a reminder of our top story... ministers have abandoned plans to get all primary pupils back to school in england before the end of term. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me, and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are. good afternoon, it's 1.30pm and here's your latest sports news. gareth southgate says he is extremely proud of how his players have
