Hi, you're watching Newsround with me, Leah. | :00:00. | :00:16. | |
Coming up this morning: We hear from a fire fighter tackling this massive | :00:17. | :00:23. | |
blaze in Yorkshire. We check out our top medal hopefuls | :00:24. | :00:30. | |
at the Winter Olympics. This is Newsround. | :00:31. | :00:40. | |
A massive fire near Leeds in the north of England, involving | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
thousands of tonnes of tyres, is still burning, sending thick smoke | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
high into the air. There's so much smoke, you can see it from space. | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
Dozens of fire fighters from across Yorkshire have been at the recycling | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
plant in Sherburn-in-Elmet since yesterday morning. They say the | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
blaze will go on for days. Luckily, no-one's been hurt, but people | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
living close were told to stay indoors, and kids at some nearby | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
schools were kept inside for the day. The smoke was captured on | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
camera by this NASA satellite image. It is a large fire. We have | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
protected the factory within the perimeter of the fire ground, and | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
from spreading elsewhere. Animal charities say they're really | :01:18. | :01:26. | |
worried about the effect of the recent floods on wildlife in the UK. | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
The RSPCA say they've rescued almost 200 animals since the start of the | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
wet weather in December. They say they're really concerned about the | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
damage to wildlife and their habitats. | :01:37. | :01:48. | |
Tennis, Serena Williams said she even felt the breeze, as she breezed | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
through in Sydney. Andy Murray has a day off, he has made it through to | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
the third round. His brother needed treatment for heat stroke after | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
playing in the doubles. He was cramping for a while after | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
the match, he was in quite a bad way for a little while. I am hoping he | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
will be fine tomorrow. It was very tough conditions especially in the | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
middle of the day, hot and humid. Team GB have been set a target of | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
winning at least three medals at the Winter Olympics in Sochi next month. | :02:26. | :02:38. | |
Let us meet another of our top medal hopefuls. | :02:39. | :02:48. | |
I am Emily. Ski Cross is the ultimate downhill race, you have the | :02:49. | :03:02. | |
alpine aspect, then all sorts of jobs and obstacles. The best bit is | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
you are racing ahead to hasten -- head to head. It is the first across | :03:09. | :03:18. | |
the finishing line. It is a scary event. I will not lie. I am scared | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
to go down there. Jumping 40 metres. Add into the mix, you have | :03:25. | :03:31. | |
somebody trying to knock you out of the way. We did the test event last | :03:32. | :03:40. | |
year. There are some huge jumps. The big thing is you know you have to be | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
calm to keep yourself in the safest position. If you go down hard, you | :03:46. | :03:53. | |
hurt yourself. This is the ultimate thing. That means so much to me. | :03:54. | :04:04. | |
We have talked about 3D printing recently. It is possible to make a | :04:05. | :04:12. | |
copy of your own face. One 3D printing company in Manchester has | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
worked out how to print your own pants! They say it is the first time | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
underwear has been printed. They say it only takes three seconds to print | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
a pair, they could make 10 million in a year. | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
If you prefer your films in 3D, we have lots of movie news on our | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
website. Check out which ones are up for an Oscar. And you can watch our | :04:43. | :04:53. | |
special guide to kids films. That's all from me. Newsround's back | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
at 4.20pm. Have a great day, I'll see you soon. Bye! | :04:58. | :04:59. |
