that will be the case across orkney and shetland as we grow across tuesday. compared with monday elsewhere, a brighter day, batches of showers, some heavy and thundery, and it will feel rather cool thundery, and it will feel rather cool, even with the sunshine. just bring you a line of breaking news reaching us, the prime minister, rishi sunak, is making his first visit to kyiv since taking office. there has been an update from volodymyr zelensky, ukraine's president, saying he met the british prime minister in kyiv on saturday. his predecessor but one, boris johnson, was there before he left office in august. he was there walking about, alongside the ukrainian president and now rishi sunak there on his first visit since becoming uk prime minister. you can see there these pictures from social media. and you can see rishi sunak their meeting various officials, alongside him president rolando zelensky. delap —— volodymyr zelensky. delap —— volodymyr zelensky. this was not trailed in advance. this is the first we are hearing about it and this is the latest we ha

might feel cooler in shetland and orkney given the strength of the wind, which will gradually ease aahead of this next bank of rain, which pushes in for monday morning, lifting temperatures after an initial dip, but to start the new working week, scotland, northern and eastern england, could be a widespread frost on the ground, but a bright start for many. this is what's going to happen, though. area of low pressure to the north—west, so we'll have to see if another area of low pressure develops around this feature here. if it does, winds could become very lively on monday around the english channel. that's one thing to watch. the other thing to watch is just how far north this rain gets. it'll sweep across much of england and wales and northern ireland. how far north it gets into scotland could be crucial, because with colder air in place, whilst many will be dry, as that rain pushes in, certainly over the hills there will be some sleet and snow around. and with very cold air in scandinavia on monday into tuesday, pushing into the far north of scotland, anything else that drifts int

there are more showers to come today, even once the main ring clears away it will linger in orkney andnext few days and you can see most areas will see some warm, particularly southern and western areas initially, but by the end of the week many parts could have another 30 to 40 millimetres of rainfall. as for the rest of the day you have still got the rain sitting across orkney, dragging its heels to clear aberdeenshire. heavy showers with hail and thunder behind and blustery winds, making it feel quite chilly. the air is chilly out and about today, cold enough for snow on the very tops of the mountains in northern parts of england and scotland as well. nine to ii in the south. blustery showers around, which continued through this evening and initially overnight, but then fade away. before dawn we get more rain pushing back into the south—west to northern ireland as well. ahead of that, a cold night. we have some frost and fog issues first thing for the morning commute on monday morning. the fog taking a while to clear away and then we have the wind and rain to deal with potentially.

but whatever falls from the sky in that colder air in the far north of scotland, orkney and shetland hail, sleet or even snow, and it will feel colder than 6—7 celsius would suggest. now, another chilly start to the evening as we go through tuesday night, but into wednesday, the next band of atlantic weather fronts work their way in. an hour or two, if not more, of rain, but sweeping quickly northwards and eastwards across the country, turning to sunshine and showers later. the rain persisting into the afternoon across some parts of northeast scotland, where of course, the ground is saturated and it will be another fairly cool day as well. beyond that, temperatures will slowly lift up just a little bit, but just look at the weather symbols in our towns and cities — it is going to be a week where we'll see yet more in the way of heavy rain at times. bye for now. this is bbc news with the headlines. delegates at the un climate conference in egypt agree a major deal on climate change. but critics say it lacks ambition. the qatar world cup kicks off with a lavish opening ceremony in doha
