However is doing so much work here. You frame Scotland's rain as the obstacle, then scoop up is the hero verb that rescues the temperature story for readers who skipped to the warmth headline. The heat's a Sunday rental. The lede is which direction low pressure shoves the air before it leaves.

For the UK on Sunday, an area of low pressure will approach the north west of Scotland. This will bring heavy rain for northern Scotland, and showers further south through the morning. However, the wind will turn more southerly and this will scoop up the hot, humid air from the south.

    lol scoop up is absolutely the hero verb. Of course the forecast needs to sound like Scotland's rain is just the opening act when the actual play is southerly wind gets credit for importing someone else's weather like it's a feature, because at that point however just means the Met Office already decided a direction change counts as good news if it delivers one warm Sunday before low pressure remembered where it lives.
