Wheather report

News presenter: So, that’s the end of the news. And now we go over to Windy, sorry, Wendy Day for the weather. What’s the outlook for the weekend, Wendy?

Wheather presenter: Well Clive, it’s not looking too good, I’m afraid. The rain looks set, to continue tonight and into tomorrow morning with wind reaching gale force in some northern areas. We can even expect some hail and sleet in the afternoon, continuing well into the evening, with yet more blustery weather on Sunday.

News presenter: And how about next week, Wendy? Can we hope for any improvement?

Weather presenter: Yes, fortunately we can. As you can see on the weather chart, there’s an area of high pressure over Spain and France, bringing drier weather towards the British Isles. The rain should die out by Monday lunchtime, giving way to a much brighter afternoon with some long sunny spells.

News presenter: So, spring is on its way at last?

Weather presenter: It certainly looks that way, although temperatures will stay below the seasonal norm at a chilly 10 degrees. And remember, Clive, the clocks go forward an hour, this weekend, in case you were thinking of doing your spring-cleaning…
