on bbc one for a full round—up of the day's news, but before that the weather prospects with tomasz schafernakerer, plenty of bright weather. in the next couple of days, the temperatures will rise, hitting 20 degrees by the time we go to tuesday. the satellite image, having said that, is revealing a lot of cloud across the uk. in fact, some rain in northern ireland, parts of wales, the south—west of england, and even if you haven't got the rain, fairly hazy, that sunshine across central and eastern areas, but on the whole the bulk of the uk is enjoying a decent day with temperatures of 13—15d. now, tonight western areas remain cloudy, you can see the cloud across the western isles, northern ireland, down to the south—west, a few bits of rain, 8-9d, but south—west, a few bits of rain, 8—9d, but where the sky play in central and eastern britain, pretty nippy outside of town, maybe 2—4 degrees. tomorrow starts quite sunny, cloud building across parts of yorkshire, lincolnshire, east anglia, the south—east, you know, clouds obscuring the sunshine. the rest of western england and scotland should be q

time for the weather with tomasz schafernaker. it really is warming up.s m ost see just how quiet the weather is across most of central and north—western europe. the uk has clear skies. sunshine in places and it will be on the hazy side. not exactly clear blue skies. in the afternoon, temperatures are hovering around the low 20s on the far south of the country, high teens for most of the country, high teens for most of usa of the country, high teens for most of us a little bit further north. and then a beautiful evening on the way. this evening we have clear skies, the winds will continue to come in from the south, so that is a one direction. this time of the year of the temperatures do tend to drop, and that means by early on friday morning we could see temperatures around three, 4 degrees. this is good friday and the weather is looking smashing across the uk. a lot of fine weather around, little in the way of cloud at those temperatures could be that little bit higher, highs of 21 degrees in central scotland as well. goodbye. i'mjane i'm jane o'brien li

now, it's time for a look at the weather with tomasz schafernaker. another chilly one today.t hasn't felt too great. temperatures, for example, on the north sea coast today only around 6 or 7 degrees. tomorrow will be a little bit milder. we will certainly notice that across southern areas of the uk. and then gradually through the week, it will be warming up. at the moment, quite a lot of cloud across western parts of the uk. this is thanks to a big low pressure out in the north atlantic that is sending a weather front in our direction. but it is not making much progress because this high pressure here is stopping it. in fact, this high pressure has been responsible for sending the colder weather in our direction. sunnier skies. you can see the cold air circling this area of high pressure, and as it approaches our shores here, bringing the chilly conditions that we've had all weekend. so, temperatures by the end of the afternoon, early evening in the south, just around ten degrees. single figures elsewhere. tonight, clear skies, so once again there will be a frost around, whe

now it‘s time for a look at the weather with tomasz schafernaker.is chilly, dry and bright weather is going to continue into sunday as well — although we had a couple of showers in the south—east, but that‘s the exception rather than the rule. now, the satellite image shows a beautiful swell of cloud out there in the atlantic. this is a storm, quite a powerful one, which is not heading our way. but it is veering off towards the north. it is trying to push its weather front in the direction of the uk, but you can see all of that mass of cloud and that swirling centre of the storm is moving towards the north. and the reason for it is because there is an intense area of high pressure across scandinavia here, and that acts like a block on the weather, so these weather fronts basically can‘t cross us. they reach ireland and then they come to a halt here, and then sort of move off towards the north. so we‘ve got the clear weather this evening, and with chilly air from scandinavia the temperatures are going to drop like a stone tonight, as we often say. in

one o'clock news with reeta chakrabarti, but first, it's time for a look at the weather with tomasz schafernakeright out of the arctic, and it has pushed away that milder towards the east, which means we will have scenes like this. we have got the hail, wind, rain on top of that as well, all making us feel really chilly. so this afternoon, temperatures are struggling, you can just about pick out where the showers are. very hit and miss, a lot of dry weather in between. unpleasant for a time in the afternoon here in east anglia and the south—east, but watch what happens overnight. northern and eastern scotland, part of the southern uplands, yorkshire as well, strong northerly winds blowing in further cloud, rain, and some hill snow. and throughout the country, this coming night, temperatures will be barely above freezing. so the low pressure is over, right over the uk, during the course of tomorrow. you can see these pressure line to a pointing from north to south, which means that the air is coming from the north. it is spiralling into this area of low pressure, cold air tapping in here. some sn
