Hi, Happy Saturday to you. I'm Martin, live with Newsround. Stay | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
here for more of this: Why this plane ended up on a beach. | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
And how weather reports have changed just a bit over the last 60 years. | :00:16. | :00:24. | |
First and after a week of extreme weather across parts of the UK there | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
are reports of more flooding on its way. People living in parts of | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
Southern England are being warned by the Environment Agency that swollen | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
rivers means floodwaters could rise even further. There will be a brief | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
rest from the rain in these areas today but 94 flood warnings are in | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
place across England and Wales. Today marks 60 years since the very | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
first BBC TV weather presenter appeared on our screens. Back then | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
they used maps drawn with pencils and even sticky labels. It was a lot | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
more difficult to get it right then and forecasters were often blamed | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
for bad weather. But thanks to technology moving things on, a lot | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
has changed. Here's BBC weatherman Simon King with a rundown of how | :01:06. | :01:13. | |
things work today. Technology has changed massively. | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
We've got computers, satellite information to protect the weather | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
up to five days ahead and also some fancy graphics that we use on the | :01:24. | :01:31. | |
television -- predict the weather. We forecast all across the world and | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
the BBC weather centre now reduces over 100 national broadcasts every | :01:37. | :01:44. | |
day, compared to one everyday back in 1964. | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
We'll have a bit more on that later. Footy now and Wayne Rooney has used | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
social media to urge Manchester United fans to keep backing their | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
team despite the team losing their last three matches. It's been a | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
difficult time for new manager, David Moyes. The last time United | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
lost four games in a row was more than 50 years ago so they're hoping | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
for a win today against Swansea, the same team that knocked them out of | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
the FA Cup a week ago. Now when you're relaxing on holiday | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
on the beach the last thing you expect to see is a plane coming into | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
land. But that's exactly what happened on this beach in Martins | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
Bay in New Zealand. Pilots had to make a emergency landing after a | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
engine problem. They then tried to take off again but got caught in the | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
surf. Luckly nobody was injured. They were just a bit embarrassed. | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
And they had to get a bit of help to get the plane out of the water. | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
Last up, the new series of The Voice starts tonight but how much do you | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
know about new coach Kylie Minogue? Head to the website to try our quiz | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
and test your knowledge. That's all from me. Newsround's back | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
right here at 11:55am. We're hoping to speak to the producer of Wild | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
Brazil, a new wildlife porgramme. He spent loads of time filming the | :02:49. | :02:58. | |
animals and well be asking him just what that's like. See you then. | :02:59. | :03:02. |
