Morning, you're live with Newsround. I'm Leah with today's top stories - | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
coming up: Storms of wind, rain and massive waves are still battering | :00:13. | :00:19. | |
parts of the UK. And, back on dry land - the mystery | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
of the Mexican castaway lost at sea for over a year! | :00:24. | :00:33. | |
First though, the terrible weather conditions continue to batter parts | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
of Britain, with storms causing chaos in the south west of England | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
and parts of Wales overnight. Gusts of up to 70 miles an hour were | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
recorded and thousands of homes are still without power after the fierce | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
winds brought down trees and electricity cables. Power companies | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
are now fighting to get supplies back on. | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
We want to hear from you. Have you been affected by the storms | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
overnight or over the past weeks? Have you seen trees blown down or | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
houses damaged? Is your school closed? Head to the website and let | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
us know. Send us pictures or videos if you have them, or let us know if | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
we can chat to you later today. Next the Syrian government has | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
missed a deadline to remove chemical weapons from the country. A deal had | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
been agreed to ship out dangerous chemicals more than a month ago. And | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
today another batch was supposed to have been removed. But authorities | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
say it's been delayed because of bad weather and problems with security. | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
It's now expected to be completed by the beginning of March. America | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
wants more to be done to get things sorted. | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
Next to a story of survival that's amazed and surprised people around | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
the world. Two years ago a fisherman from Mexico says he went on a | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
fishing trip with a friend. 13 months later, he was found on a tiny | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
island 8,000 miles from home. Nel has been looking into it. | :01:47. | :01:56. | |
This man says he spent more than a year floating adrift in the middle | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
of the ocean. He claims to have lost at sea but 13 months when a fishing | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
trip went wrong. He is said to have eaten birds, fish and turtles he | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
caught with his hands. The 37-year-old, who only speaks | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
Spanish, said he left southern Mexico with a friend on a day trip | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
to catch black tip shark -- sharks in 2012. Last week he washed up | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
alone with a bushy beard eight thousand miles from home on a tiny | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
Pacific island. TRANSLATION: The boat was bobbing up | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
and down in the waves. I pushed myself away from the boat so it | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
would not hit me in the head. When I got to the sure I was unable to | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
walk. Some people have questioned whether it is possible to survive at | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
the four that amount of time. He said his friend he was travelling | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
with died many months ago, but there is no details how he died and how | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
the boat got into trouble in the first place. He is now heading back | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
to Mexico to be ready -- reunited with his family. It is not the first | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
time people have been rescued off the Marshall Islands. In 2006, three | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
fishermen had to be rescued after what they said nine months drifting | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
across the Pacific Ocean. They survived on rainwater, birds and | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
fish. Now you see tonnes of this stuff | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
when you're by the coast - seaweed. But now doctors are looking into | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
whether it could help fight infections. Teams at Cardiff and | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
Swansea universities say it could help people who suffer from | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
illnesses like Cystic Fibrosis because they believe elements of the | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
seaweed could break down a sticky mucus that damages the body's | :03:48. | :03:48. | |
organs. Cricket now and one of England's | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
best ever star batsman Kevin Pietersen has played his last match | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
for his country. Bosses announced yesterday that he'd been dropped for | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
both the One Day tour of the West Indies which starts next month, and | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
the World Twenty20 in Bangladesh. Those in charge say they need to | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
rebuild the team after the disastrous Ashes tour of Australia. | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
I don't think this is the moment. There is a World Cup, an Ashes | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
series in 16 months. You need your best players. It is the wrong call | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
at the wrong time for English cricket. | :04:18. | :04:23. | |
Swansea have sacked their manager Michael Laudrup, even though he won | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
the League Cup with them last season. But they are just two points | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
above the Premier League relegation zone. Captain Garry Monk is in | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
charge for now ahead of the weekend's massive clash with local | :04:34. | :04:34. | |
rivals Cardiff. And, Fulham have been knocked out of | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
the FA Cup by League One's Sheffield United. They lost 1-0 after this | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
last minute, extra-time header, from Shaun Miller. The Blades will now | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
play the winner of tonight's replay between Preston and Nottingham | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
Forest. I will be back in about half an | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
hour. We will be taking a closer look at these little fellas | :04:58. | :04:58. |
