hello. after what's been another fairly warm week for many of us, the weekend is set to bring something even warmer. in fact, i think the days at times will feel quite hot and the nights will be very warm and humid as well. but as we head into sunday, we are going to see a bit of a change. some thundery downpours swinging in from the west courtesy of a frontal system, which is a long way away to the west of us right now. for the short term, high pressure isjust about in charge and around this area of high pressure, particularly as these weather fronts squeeze in, we've got a feed of humid air wafting its way across our shores. so, quite a warm and humid start to saturday morning with a fair amount of cloud actually, and some mist and murk around some of the coasts and over some of the hills. a lot of the cloud will tend to break through the day

to give some spells of sunshine. a bit of rain moving across the far north—west of scotland. there's a small chance for the odd shower in parts of northern england, down into the midlands but wales and the south of england likely to see the lion's share of the sunshine and wherever you are, it is going to be a warm day. 2a degrees for belfast, 25 for aberdeen, 29 the expected high in london. and that warmth does not ebb away quickly as we head into the evening. in fact, temperatures holding up at around 23 degrees in london and in sheffield at 10:00 in the evening, so it could well be a little bit uncomfortable for sleeping. those temperatures falling a little bit further into the early hours of sunday. but with the humid air in place, sunday is going to turn into another very warm day. however, this frontal system pushing in from the west will bring a change for some of us with a band of heavy, thundery rain already in place across northern ireland first thing. that will push its way eastwards and ahead of it, some showers will pop up across parts of northern england, eastern scotland. these could be heavy and thundery in nature. but further south and particularly further

south—east, it should stay largely dry with lots of sunshine and that warmth being squashed into the south—east corner. so, temperatures in london likely to get to 31 degrees, but just 19 for belfast. fresher in the west. and that fresher air will move across all parts of the country as we move into the start of the new week. there are, though, further frontal systems lying in wait, so we will see further outbreaks of rain at times and potentially some quite strong winds as well, particularly towards the north and the west of the uk. not as much rain further south and it is not going to be as warm as it has been.
