FORECASTING THE WEATHER

Correct the mistakes.

 

... And that is the end of the news. Now we'll go over to the weather centre for the weather report for the whole of the United Kingdom.

Good morning. Due to the depression lying off the north of England and the high in the south of England today's weather will be variable through the country. Starting then in the south-west it'll start warm and become cool with long periods of rain. Around London and the south-east the day will be dry but cold at times. In the Midlands it will be cloudy all day with showers at times. Moving over then to South Wales there may be fog patches over the mountains for probably most of the day. While in North Wales it'll be generally rainy. In the North East it will be cloudy all day, no rain anywhere and it'll be heavy at times. Further north in Scotland we can expect snow in those areas south of Edinburgh while in the very north of Scotland and the Herbrides there'll be hail on high ground. Now in Northern Ireland there's a possibility of rain and it'll surely be very cold. That's the end of the weather forecast.
