Breakfast brief
Rain sinks in from the north-west

The WeatherRadar shows the progression of the rain through the day.

An unsettled picture in the north-west at first, with rain and blustery winds developing elsewhere through the day.

Kickstarting your morning

Welcome to the breakfast brief, your first look at the day's forecast and a sneak peek of today's articles.

Weather outlook

A cooler start than recently in the south-east under clear skies, with a low pressure system driving in a band of heavy and persistent rain from the north-west, sinking slowly south-eastwards through the day.

In its track the rain will become increasingly showery in nature and fragmented, reaching the south-east corner overnight. Blustery winds will also accompany the rain.

The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
