particularly in southern and eastern areas. but potentially here some rain through the night and into monday. a cooler and unsettled start to next week. hello, this is bbc news with luxmy gopal. the headlines: celebrations for australia s labour party as it wins the country s general election. it means this man, anthony albanese, is set to form the next government, though it s not yet clear whether it will be a majority or minority administration. ukraine s president zelensky has said that diplomacy is the only way russia s war on his country will end. here, opposition parties demand an explanation from borisjohnson, after he met with the senior civil servant, sue gray, ahead of the publication of her report into lockdown parties at downing street. now on bbc news it s time for sportsday. hello and welcome to sportsday. i m olly foster. we are alive at the bbc sport centre. here is what is coming up for you. rangers finish their season on a high, scottish cup winners for a 34
for much of the time, bringing further showers or longer spells of rain, of course on strong sunshine in between, but only 15 18 , which is about average for the time of year. it will feel pleasant enough if you are out of the breeze, but quite a breezy day and potentially a windy day on wednesday for the time of year, as this next area of low pressure and its attendant weather fronts rattles in bringing more rain. it doesn t look like i wash out, but some heavy showers developing on that front end as it moves eastwards, feeding up from that war may sunshine when it comes with the clouds and a pretty windy day as well, up to 30 40 mph in the north, but a pretty breezy further south as well. wednesday is those weather fronts start to slip away eastwards, we start to see the arrival of high pressure in from the south and west, so thursday will be a day when it starts to dry up a bit, the wind is easing down, the cloud breaking up. there is or is going to be a chance with the low pressure
hampden park. that is it for me here at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello there. the last few days have brought some much needed rainfall to some of the gardens across the united kingdom and with the weather pattern remaining unsettled for the coming days we will see more rain. no pressure, for example, sunday sitting towards the north and west, add another area of pressure approaching from the south. some drier weather around costs southern and eastern areas, the lines share of the sunshine here, but i think it will be quite drizzly and damp across the irish sea coasts, misty and drizzly, coastalfog across the irish sea coasts, misty and drizzly, coastal fog across the irish hills, certainly persistent band of rain from northern scotland as well, rain included on sunday. otherwise because you have that warmer air pushing northwards, it will be a milder day, for the most
part, but across the northern half of scotland that rain pushing through during monday night, this next area of low pressure approaching from the south bringing some rain, and also some warmer air with it, but that will slip away as the northerly wind sets in and disappears off into the north sea. but for the start of monday and threw sunday night we could see some heavy rain pushing on across southern and eastern parts of england and behind it the shower is falling on that north westerly, it really unsettled day with heavy showers, the odd rumble of thunder and hail as well, temperatures down to 15-18 , and hail as well, temperatures down to 15 18 , and that is because of the change in wind direction, that north westerly, which stays with us for tuesday, just meandering up into the north sea, so could drag some rain into eastern coastal areas, but what we will find is because of the north westerly later on tuesday and into the start of wednesday we get cooler air drifting its way sout
north western areas, keeping it rather cool here, but elsewhere 17-19 c. for rather cool here, but elsewhere 17 19 c. for the end of the week, it is looking for now as if the azores high will move its way in, drying things up and settling things down and also bringing some warmer air. it is going to keep those weather fronts at bay, still the risk of some rain from northern areas, but because we will start to drag in the airfrom because we will start to drag in the air from the south, some continental air, things are set to get a little bit warmer. not very hot, but temperatures will lift into the low to mid 20s once again. so it is looking drier by the end of the week. the main uncertainty is how far north that azores high bring that drier and warmer air because still there will be some rain around, mainly in the north.
