at the moment. the winners will go through to the knockout phase in november. that is just about it from us. england are about to kick off againstjapan at the rugby world cup. both teams won their opening games. a win, in nice, would give england top spot and control of their pool. head to the bbc sport website for the latest with that. that is it from us. we will see you soon. hello. we've had some pretty big downpours across some parts of the country in the last few hours. thunder and lightning, too, but dry weather as well in one or two spots, in fact. clear spells also expected through this evening and overnight. and very mild conditions. the air still is coming in from the south. so mid—teens expected overnight. in fact, if you look at the motion of the cloud,
7:57 pm
you can see drifting in, gently drifting in from the south. and these are the storm clouds that affected the south. and then through the evening hours, the storm clouds will have drifted northwards. outbreaks of rain elsewhere across scotland and northern ireland and then early hours of the morning, the possibility of further heavy showers with thunder and lightning across the south east of the uk. here are the temperatures again, 15 or 16 in the south, 13 for newcastle and even for ourfriends in lerwick. their double figures first thing in the morning. here's the weather map for monday. quite a large area of low pressure here and a couple of cool fronts or cold fronts. that means that relatively speaking, the air behind these weather, france is fresher and a little bit cooler or less warm, i should say, because it's not particularly cold air at all. this means rain for a time in the morning for some of us with gusty winds. and then it's the case of sunny spells and showers. and you'll notice these temperatures still reaching 20 degrees in the south east, 17 in newcastle, and about 14 expected in belfast, middle of the day, tuesday into wednesday. quite a strong jet stream is expected to sweep in an ex tropical cyclone. this storm actually moved across the north east
7:58 pm
of the united states. it's an ex—tropical weather system, meaning that there's a lot of warmth and moisture in it. so despite the wind and the rain and basically turbulent gusty weather, those temperatures will still reach around 19 in hull, around merseyside, 20 or so in london, a little bit fresher there in the lowlands around 15. and it's a large weather system, a broad weather system, meaning that will be feeling the effects of this low into wednesday. if anything, the winds can be even stronger, easily gusting to 50 miles an hour inland, really quite blustery for the time of the year, but it is the middle to second half of september. so we are expecting this kind of weather to become more frequent. now, we could see spells of warmer weather wafting our way over the coming days. but i think it's a safe bet that from now onwards there is certainly not going to be any more hot weather returning our way. bye— bye.
