morning, all. a stormy end to our weekend of what has been quite a remarkable week of weatherjust passed. on sunday, we saw highs of 33 degrees yet again, so that, coupled with last week's temperatures, saw seven consecutive days where we've seen 30 degrees or more — a record for september. but our week ahead is certainly going to see a change. yes, we'll have some warmth on monday, but a noticeable, fresher feel for all of us. these are our maximum temperatures expected as we go through the week ahead, so low 20s quite widely. we've got a weather front then still pushing in from the north. it's a cold front, and this will gradually introduce the change to the weather story. eventually, that front is going to push its way steadily south and the wind direction swing around to more of a northwesterly, cooler, fresher air tucking in behind. so, to begin with,10—ii degrees in the north west of the great glen.
12:56 am
a mild start once again for england and well, still feeling quite humid out there. and this is where we'll see the best of the sunshine and the warmth on monday. a showery band of rain through northern england and north wales. cloudy and sunny spells and scattered showers following in behind. fresher here, but ahead of that front, we're still likely to see temperatures peaking at 27 degrees — that's 80 fahrenheit. now, as we move out of monday into tuesday, that weather front is still there and it's still meandering its way slowly south and east, taking its time in doing so. ahead of the front is where we'll keep the milder conditions, so first thing on tuesday morning, 16 degrees fresher behind single figures for scotland and northern ireland, the front will gradually sink its way south. it could bring some much needed rain actually across the midlands, east anglia and southeast england. east anglia and behind it, some sunnier spells and clearer conditions. so we're looking at 13—18 degrees here, highest values if we're lucky of around 22 celsius.
12:57 am
then as we move out of tuesday, finally, that frontal system eases away. high pressure is set to build and keep things quite quiet. that means a chilly start potentially in the far northeast on wednesday morning. maybe temperatures low enough for a touch of frost in sheltered glens of scotland, but it will lead to a largely fine bright day on wednesday, noticeably fresher with showers for the end of the week.
