2). Read the text, check your answers. THE WEATHER FORECAST
And now here’s the weather forecast for the next twenty-four hours. I’ll divide the country into four, starting with the North West and the North East of England. Well, there’ll be some early morning mists, and after that it’ll be mainly dry and sunny, but quite chilly, with temperatures around six or seven. It should stay dry all day, but there’ll be quite a wind, so wrap up warm.
And now the South West and Wales. You can expect some rain in the morning and afternoon. There might be some storms, as well, with thunder and lightning. There’ll be quite strong winds, and the temperature will be lower than yesterday, around three or four degrees. I don’t think you’ll see much of the sun. Cloudy all day, I’m afraid.
The South East, the Midlands, and East Anglia will see the best of today’s weather. It’ll be warmer than yesterday, no winds, and sunshine nearly all day, with temperatures around ten or eleven, so quite warm for the time of year.
In Scotland and Northern Ireland, however, there’ll be heavy rain and maybe some snow during the afternoon, and on the hills temperatures will drop to below freezing, minus four or five, and on the highest spots minus ten. Over much of Scotland it will be cloudy, and windy, too, as the cold front moves in over the Atlantic. Northern Ireland can expect the same, but the rain will end before dark. But again, very cold, with temperatures not going above freezing. And that’s all from me.
