north—east england and look around south—east england, the met office suggesting these are flying ants being picked up these are flying ants being picked up on the radar. there is a lot going on out there. as i mentioned, not a lot of sunshine. count yourself lucky if you have more than blue in the sky. a scattering of down pours, that will be slow moving, particularly in eastern parts this afternoon and into this evening. we could see a bit of rain, but they're very hit and miss. warm, humid feel, especially if you see some sunshine. some rain pushing into cornwall, devon and pembrokeshire and some will be heavier tonight. elsewhere the down pours will start to ease. we will keep a lot of cloud into tonight and it is going to be muggy out there. misty in places too. the weekend picture, one spell of rain in southern england clearing on saturday. another system bearing down on us from the west on sunday. in between the two, you may see some sunshine. saturday and the wet start in southern england, that rain pushing across the south—east to east anglia before clearing in the afternoon

down to the south—east. 0ne some thunderstorms down to the south—east. one or two elsewhere and the highest temperatures across western areas, 30 in parts of northern ireland, 31 across parts of the west country. some thunderstorms rumbling into the evening. most places dry and another evening where temperatures will be held up. if you're heading to bed at 11 o'clock many places still up into the 20s and they will not fall much further as we go through the night but we will see more low cloud wearing on a course north and england, tending to bend back towards the coast to tomorrow. some cloud around in north—east scotland. lots of sunshine to the day, some scattered showers in the wind not particularly strong but coming from the east pushing towards the west for the bus is moving the heat westwards and i think the higher temperature tomorrow quebec was northern ireland at 31 degrees which would challenge the new record we set in northern ireland just last weekend. cooler for some eastern parts and again

still not that warm towards east anglia, the south east because it's a northerly breeze and a weak weather front will be bringing cloud into the north west of the uk, maybe even a few spots of rain around as well. for many, it's a dry day with some sunshine. that weak weather front is running around the top of the area of high pressure. not much rain in it, really, but what it does do as we head into thursday, it tracks down into the high pressure and brings cloud down into england and wales, maybe one or two spots of rain, but essentially it's dry. but it looks like a cloudier day in england and wales on thursday, more sunshine following to scotland and northern ireland and temperatures still into the low 20s, so near normalfor this time of the year. now, some computer models bring the high pressure in and then pull it away fairly quickly. we're expecting the high pressure to hang around a little bit longer, mind you, and with that high pressure around, it means we've got some much—needed dry weather. and it looks like it's going to be dry into next weekend with some sunshine. temperatu

into east anglia. slowly pulling away in the next few hours. showers further north, more breaking out across north wales, northern england and into scotland, the odd one for northern ireland. for much of the midlands, south wales and the south—west, drier and brighter with some sunshine. maybe some late sunshine in the south—east but it's a slow process across parts of kent and essex. cool here. best temperatures around glasgow, 23 degrees, but shower is not far away and they will continue into this evening and gradually downpours will fade away over night, tending to become drier overnight with a lot of cloud, low cloud, so it could be misty in the morning and temperatures typically 11 or 12. the forecast for wimbledon tomorrow, the men's final, and it should be a dry day. not huge amounts of sunshine but a warmer day than today. cloudy across many parts of the country to start, cloud thinning and breaking with sunshine coming through, triggering heavy, perhaps thundery showers across northern eng

england and east anglia. there will be some rather lively winds causing some disruption both tonight and tomorrow with some heavy downpours again, even some thunder and lightning in the slow moving showers for central areas. temperatures a little bit down, just because we have got more cloud tomorrow. into the weekend, the low pressure moves out the way but as it pushes across into the eastern side of europe, it allows this northerly breeze to come down. high pressure still sitting to the west of us. but with that setup and a northerly breeze, it means things will cool down. we have had heat and humidity already through this month but it will be, on average, cooler and it should be on average, cooler than it should be through the weekend, particularly for scotland and northern ireland. still some showers around and still potentially heavy for england and wales. the details and the warnings are on the website. this is bbc news. i'm ben brown. the headlines... england's deputy chief medical officerjonathan vanâ

east anglia and down to the south—east are likely to linger for much of the day. if you keep some sunshine, the highest values are likely to be once again into the mid—20s. now, this more unsettled theme is set to continue into monday with the low pressure just drifting its way further north and east up through the north sea. that means the further east is likely to see more in the way of showers. so, monday is a messy mix, really, of sunny spells and scattered showers. the best of the sunshine is likely to be out to the west, and we could see temperatures once again into the mid—20s. but some of these showers could bring a lot of heavy rain in a short space of time, so the weather story is certainly on the change. last week, it was extreme heat and lots of sunshine. our week ahead keeps those showers and certainly, a notable difference to the feel of the weather, with temperatures just below where they should be for the time of year. this is bbc news. the headlines: chase kalisz has given the united states their first medal — a gold — on day two of the ol

the uk government has announced extra support for parts of the country including of the north east of england in the battle against rising numbers of covid—19. it's due to recent data showing that nearly 30% of adults in newcastle for example, haven't even had their firstjab... among younger adults it's almost half. in the whole of england nearly 70% of the adult population has had both jabs which is why auhorities say they're taking action. the bbc�*s martin forster reports. injanuary, worried people queued up to be vaccinated and the limiting factor was how quickly the nhs could get hold of vaccines. six months later, and it's a very different story. the vaccines are there, the vaccinators are there, but the nhs is dealing with a far more sceptical audience. while the north—east are seeing the highest rates of infection in the country, in newcastle, nearly three in ten adults remain completely unvaccinated. i guess there's a sense that perhaps were getting towards the end of the pandemic and i think that's probably playing into people's minds as to, actually, do i still need t

further east again sunshine first thing, but then some sharp and thundery downpours through north—east england and scotland in particular, some of these could be quite torrential. perhaps if we are going to pick an area that could stay largely dry, east anglia and south—east england. highs of 23 degrees on sunday. that means for the men's final, again it will be a dry affair. perhaps some brightness from time to time, a little bit of showery rain arriving by the end of the day. play will have finished, long gone by then. but that does mean there is the potential for some showery rain towards the end of the euros final at wembley. moving out of sunday into monday, we have this frontal system still producing some outbreaks of rain. low pressure really centred across the country. that means that monday is quite a messy story to tell, really. there will be some showers or longer spells of rain almost anywhere on monday. temperatures at around 21 degrees as a high, that's 70 farenheit. but once monday eases out of the way, high pressure is going to build in behind. that means that we will

anglia and south—east england later in the night. a lot of cloud for most, clearer skies the further west you are and another muggy night, particularly across central and southern parts of england. as we head into tomorrow, we still have this area of low pressure churning around, generating further thunderstorms and the main risk tomorrow will be through parts of east anglia, south—east england, the midlands and south wales. we could see a few developing perhaps across south—west scotland and northern ireland, but generally the further north you are, the better chance you have of having a dry day and some sunshine. still very warm, but notice how those temperatures are starting to come down, more like the mid to low 20 celsius across the southern half of the uk. come monday, quite a messy picture. the best way we can describe it is some sunshine, but also frequent showers and some thunderstorms as well. somewhat hit and miss, the temperatures start to rise again across the southern half of uk, but they tend to dip down into the l

east anglia and down to the south—east are likely to linger for much of the day. if you keep some sunshine, the highest values are likely to be once again into the mid—20s. now, this more unsettled theme is set to continue into monday with the low pressure just drifting its way further north and east up through the north sea. that means the further east is likely to see more in the way of showers. so, monday is a messy mix, really, of sunny spells and scattered showers. the best of the sunshine is likely to be out to the west, and we could see temperatures once again into the mid—20s. but some of these showers could bring a lot of heavy rain in a short space of time, so the weather story is certainly on the change. last week, it was extreme heat and lots of sunshine. our week ahead keeps those showers and certainly, a notable difference to the feel of the weather, with temperatures just below where they should be for the time of year. this is bbc news. i'm sarah mulkerrins — live in tokyo — on day 2 of the olympics. australia smash the world record to win

the zone likely to see the heaviest of showers today is across parts of south—east england, east anglia, perhaps into the midlands as well. elsewhere across the uk, a lot of dry, settled weather and the cloud will be breaking up through the day so some long spells of sunshine. not quite as warm as recent days but still temperatures in the north—west getting up to 25, possibly 26 degrees. if you have got these showers down towards the south—east, though, it's only going to be about 22 or 23 degrees. again some of them quite torrential as we head into the evening hours, the odd rumble of thunder into the evening. but most of the showers are easing somewhat through the course of tonight. so largely clear skies for most of us, fairly cloudy, low cloud mist and murk for parts of scotland, north—east england as well. temperatures overnight getting down to around about 13—16 degrees. as we head into monday, low pressure still with us, just pushing its way a little bit further northwards through the north sea. so still some showers around on monday but different areas, i think, will be

most of the heavy showers in the east fade away overnight. we've got quite a lot of low cloud drifting in from north—east england and eastern scotland. clearer skies towards the west and overnight temperatures about 13 to 16 degrees. during the day on monday, we got quite a bit of cloud across some coastal regions in particular. more sunshine in the south but they will be further heavy showers and thunderstorms put it in for eastern scotland and they could be some elsewhere. eyes of 21 to 25 degrees. hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment — first, the headlines at 9:30. australia has claimed their first games gold, breaking the world record for the women's four hundred metre freestyle team relay. the hosts, japan, also won their second gold, in the pool. while the tunisian teenager, ahmed hafnaoui, stunned the field to win the men's 400 metre freestyle gold. thousands of people in the western united states, are spending the weekend in evacuation centers, as wildfires continue to burn across

anglia and the south—east, temperatures here should be a bit higher. we've still got some heavy showers as we head into the evening across scotland in particular. and this rain just marches its way eastwards towards wembley later on in the evening. indeed there is more rain to come as we head into the start of next week because low pressure is still in charge. that is sitting right over the uk. so, we are looking at more rain more widely i think on monday. that rain could be heavy, it could be thundery, and it could lead to some localised flooding. downpours developing more widely in scotland and northern england, we've got some rain further south. it looks at this stage like northern ireland may see some of the driest weather, and temperatures will be up at around 20 or 21 celsius. now, that low pressure bringing the downpours slowly, slowly pushes away towards continental europe, and it starts to dry out a little bit more, especially across the western side of the uk on tuesday. this is where all the heavy downpours are. mostly the other side of the

severe storms pushing across parts of the east midlands, east anglia and the kent and london area, pushing south and east and these are in the last hour and will continue in the evening, gradually fading away but what is not going to fade is the hot spell we are experiencing, the amber met office extreme heat warning remains in place in the south—west of the uk right through to thursday and comes into force tomorrow until friday across northern ireland with a combination of hot days and warm nights. these are the temperatures as we hit 10pm this evening, still in the mid 20s or summer is the combination could have an impact on your health. the showers and storms fade away around the second half of the night but the temperature only slowly ebbed down, even by first light tomorrow morning still in the high teens. a few changes tomorrow. parts of eastern scotland and the north—east of england with more in the way of low cloud that will fade during the day and low cloud in northern scotland limiting the temperature rise but elsewhere it will be another hot and sultry day, 30 or 31 in the s

those thunderstorms keep going tomorrow, particularly through parts of east anglia, south—east england, the midlands, down into south—west england and wales. maybe one or two further north as well but generally the cloud should tend to disappear to leave sunshine and for many, it is another warm day. that is all from me, bye—bye. hello, this is bbc news with me, shaun ley. the headlines: the olympic host nationjapan has picked up its first medals, winning a gold and a silver injudo. great britain's adam yates finished ninth, but it was bad news for geraint thomas who retired from the race for a second successive games after a crash. afghanistan imposes a curfew across almost the entire country in an attempt to stop the taliban infiltrating its cities. tackling britain's "pingdemic" — hundreds more covid testing sites are to be set up across england to ensure essential workers can avoid self—isolation and keep working. now on bbc news,

some of these heavy downpours in the south—east and east anglia will continue through this evening and overnight as well, so still the odd rumble of thunder and, again, some surface water flooding possible. during the second half of the night, most places do become dry as showers ease away and there'll be quite a lot of low cloud pushing in across parts of scotland, northern england and perhaps northern ireland as well. temperatures overnight about 12—16 but into monday and things still unsettled, this area of low pressure just move on its way a little bit further northwards up the north sea, so that means we will have quite a bit of cloud and a few showers for parts of northern and eastern scotland, for instance, as well. a little bit of showery rain which will reach the far west later in the day and northern ireland as well. but, actually, quite a lot of places having a largely dry day. just the chance of a few isolated showers for scotland so parts of wales as well later on but one in the south compared to sunday with temperatures around 25 or 26 degrees. and then, moving through

steve bhengu there from east coast radio in south africa. brazil's presidentjair bolsonaro has been taken to hospital for tests after suffering persistent hiccups. he apologised for hicupping throughout this press conference, saying he'd had them for over a week. he was originally expected to remain under observation for 2a to 48 hours, but has since been transferred to sao paulo for additional tests for an obstructed intestine and possible surgery. in a tweet, mr bolsonaro said he would be "back soon, god willing". dom phillips is a journalist based in salvador. he says the brazilian president has been struggling for a number of days. bolsonaro has been complaining for about ten days now of hiccups and he's been clearly struggling to talk in social media videos taken by his supporters, who he quite often meets at the presidential headquarters — he goes behind the fence and talks to them — and he's been clearly struggling to talk and hiccuping quite badly. we should remember that in 2018 he was stabbed during his election campaign and su

he's a professor in medicine at the university of east anglia. he gave his reaction to the declining case numbers. the trend is continuing, and we're seeing quite substantial reductions in case numbers over the last few days, and today's figures are about 40% lower than they were last sunday, which is roughly the same drop as we saw yesterday compared to the previous saturday as well, so it is looking very encouraging at the moment. we're not quite a week from freedom day, and you'll want the two weeks presumably to give an accurate picture and what impact that may have had, if anything, on infection rates. do these figures look manageable at the moment? you're quite right. it won't be till friday at the earliest before we start seeing any impact of freedom day on the statistics but, even if freedom day does increase transmission, and it's not absolutely certain that that will be the case because schools are closing, so that will reduce transmission, but clearly a lot of other venues are opening up, which potentially could increase transmission,

some of the gusty east winds occurred through the morning, some were the strongest winds further east into the afternoon, and we had 40 to 45 mph winds. it has not just been a story about when, we have also had some torrential rain in central and eastern parts of northern england as well, and those thunderstorms will continue to ramble on in this evening, and the actual storm is moving out into the north sea, but in its wake, still quite a bit of rain, and this is a weather front coming into eastern scotland and north—east england. temperature is a 10-15, england. temperature is a 10—15, so not a particularly cold night with all that cloud and breeze, but they will be a subtle change in the wind direction this weekend, we will pick up with this northerly wind, not a warm direction at any time of the year, and there is still some moisture in the atmosphere so we expected to be atmosphere so we expected to be a rather showery picture, particularly for england and wales, if few showers for scotla nd wales, if few showers for scotland and ireland. but someplace as will escape. and the

that means the further east is likely to see more in the way of showers. so, monday is a messy mix, really, of sunny spells and scattered showers. the best of the sunshine is likely to be out to the west, and we could see temperatures once again into the mid—20s. but some of these showers could bring a lot of heavy rain in a short space of time, so the weather story is certainly on the change. last week, it was extreme heat and lots of sunshine. our week ahead keeps those showers and certainly, a notable difference to the feel of the weather, with temperatures just below where they should be for the time of year. this is bbc news, i'm lukwesa burak. these are the latest headlines in the uk and around the world. the olympic host nation, japan, has picked up its first medals, winning a gold and a silver injudo. that was after ecuador�*s richard carapaz won the gold in the men's olympic cycling road race, making it the country's second ever top medal at a summer olympics. great britain's adam yates finished ninth. but it was bad news for geraint thomas, w
