now it's time for a look at the weather with chris fawkes. hello again. our weather for ages now and our rainfall totals this month have been really mounting up, and top of the rainfall league, that is in north yorkshire, over twice as much rain as we would normally see in the whole of the month of may and of course, we are onlyjust past the halfway stage. there is loads more rain to come, no change to our unsettled weather pattern for the foreseeable future. today is a showery kind of day and what is really important for the showers across england and wales is this trough, that will be working its way eastwards and will be taking the heaviest of the showers with it. and so across parts of yorkshire, down to the midlands, east anglia and south—east england, that is where the heavy storms are going to be as we go through the afternoon, but behind that feature, showers become much less common across wales, parts of the west midlands and parts of north—west england, where you have got a much better with broken cloud and sunshine through the afternoon. temper
