now the weather, with tomasz schafernaker. hello there. sunshine we had across the uk varied quite a bit. some of us didn't have any sunshine at all. if you look at the satellite picture, you can see the thicker cloud across parts of england and wales and the brighter skies earlier on across scotland and northern ireland, all part of a much larger rugged area of cloud shrouding many parts of europe. it's a big area of low pressure that's dominating the continent right now. and in the next few days, we are expecting a fair amount of rain. smaller areas of low pressure will come sweeping our way. and with that, outbreaks of rain and at times some strong winds. but it won't be raining all the time. there will be some fair weather in between these weather systems. hello there. so the forecast then — through the early hours, we have some rain across the south of the uk, maybe some cracks of thunder. also, this easterly breeze drags in rain bearing cloud into parts of northern england. so quite wet in yorkshire overnight. the temperatures early

tomasz schafernaker is here. well the trees like the mild and wet weather and that is how it has been in the last couple of weeks. they have been so wet, already months worth of rainfall and we are not even through the first half of the month. so rain bearing clouds over us might know particularly what today across parts of wales, the north west of england. for example snowdonia could see 100 millimetres of rain in the next couple of days but it is a narrow band. so here we have cloudy conditions but further north it is brighter but cooler. across england and wales team is so quite mild. the forecast than for tonight shows a band of rain continuing across this north—western portion of england and were but then coming back to reach northern ireland and southern parts of scotland. to the south it is very mild might commit10 scotland. to the south it is very mild might commit 10 degrees in some spots. calder across scotland at around three or 4 degrees. so an area of low pressure here, but the centre at somewhere ar
