time for a look at the weather, here's louise lear.il has come and gone and there have been plenty of them to talk about. dry weather, plenty of sunshine and very little rain, but the standout story four april 2021 are the frosts. we have had a grass frost recorded somewhere in the uk every night of this month, which is quite incredible. we are closing the month out on a bit more of a traditional note with april showers. if you catch one, you will know about it. light winds mean they are very slow moving. they have been very slow moving. they have been very hit and miss so far today. coming off the north sea a few across wales and the midlands. the showers could become a bit more widespread as we go through the afternoon with hail and thunder. there will not be much in the way of warmth, still a disappointing feel at therefore this time of year. seven to 13 degrees. the showers will ease as we go through the evening and overnight. clear skies and showerfee will evening and overnight. clear skies and shower fee will allow those temperat

now the weather with louise lear. good morning. saturday afternoon. what a beautiful weather watcher picture. slightly different story just down the road. in fact, across northeast england, the cloud lingered all day, accompanied by a nagging cool wind coming off the north sea — temperatures just a maximum of six celsius. now, we are still under the influence of high—pressure, although, it is slipping away to the southwest. and that's allowing a cold front to push into the north. now, we've been talking about this for some time. it is going to introduce cloud across scotland and northern ireland and eventually much colder air. but it means a different day in prospect for scotland. the best of the sunshine is likely to be further south across england, and wales and areas that have seen some stubborn cloud just recently. eastern england, more sunshine, more warmth expected for easter sunday. but that front will bring some rain and a cooler feel as we go through the day. and it's going to continue to sink its way south through sunday

now it's time for a look at the weather with louise lear. good evening.vely sunshine around early on. however, as the day progressed, we quite literally had four seasons in one day. a frosty start, some sunshine, then some showers. and the shower is turning increasingly wintry with some hail and snow mixed in there as well. this has been the story through the day today. the shower clouds developed as we went through the morning and then became quite widespread into the afternoon. the only exception is down to the south—east where we had some fairly dense cloud throughout the day, associated with this weather front. and it brought some light, showery rain as well. now, the front drifts away, and through the next night the showers will fade and the temperatures will fall away quite sharply. so we are likely to see another frost in many northern and eastern areas across the country. maybe that frost getting into the south—east with the lack of cloud. the cold arctic air once again returns across the country, and so temperatures look likely to struggle as we

now, louise lear has the weather. good afternoon. first time this month i'm using the phrase "april showers". yes, there are some with this weatherfront, slowly sinking its way south and west today. to the north of that front, we have got a few more isobars on the chart, that is where the strongest of the winds are going to be, gusts perhaps in the sharper showers of 30 to a0 mph. so we have seen some weather watcher pictures sent in — showers. this was edinburgh just a few hours ago. and you can see how extensive the cloud and the showers are, not too intense at the moment but there is a rash driving in off the north sea coast and they will filter a little bit further west. now, there is a decent break in the clouds through bristol over towards suffolk, that is where the best of the sunshine is likely to be. those showers continuing through this afternoon, maybe one or two heavier ones with the odd rumble of thunder and hail mix in there. so the best of the sunshine, obviously, brings the best of the warmth, 16 degrees. but on that

here's louise lear.rs. in fact, there has been an air frost somewhere across the uk every night somewhere across the uk every night so far this month. the irony is, there probably won't be tonight and that's because we have seen some showers today. this was york a few hours ago and if i show you the satellite and rain radar combined, something we've not seen for some time, you can see how extensive the cloud and showers were across the country, pushing in from the east to west. that front is going to sink south and so the cloud and showers will move its way across england and wales, acting like a blanket, preventing the temperatures from falling too far and some of the shower is quite intense through the night but the clearest of the skies look likely to be further north, but even so, temperatures perhaps only into low single figures and that is not so far so far this month. showery rain will push its way south and west, so first thing tomorrow so —— central and south—west wales and there might be heavy

before that, a look at the weather with louise lear. good morning. the high teens, possibly even 20 celsius, and i'll come on to where that's likely in just a moment. that's because we've still got high pressure influencing the story at the moment. the wind is turning in a clockwise direction around that high so always a chance of a bit more of a breeze, particularly down towards the south—west. we've also got some thick cloud into the northern isles which could produce an isolated shower, and generally a bit more high cloud may well develop into the west by the middle of the afternoon. the winds gusting just like yesterday, in excess of 40 mph across the southwest. that'll take the edge off the feel of things and might make for some choppy seas as well at times. but sheltered western areas are likely to see the best of the warmth — 19 degrees, possibly 20, is not out of the question. a little bit cooler on the east coast. if you are a hay fever sufferer, the tree pollen is still high, and that means it'll remain high for the majority of the country,
