It's just gone 13.45 this Saturday.

0:00:030:00:05

It's Ricky here, live on CBBC with all the latest news.

0:00:050:00:09

Coming up:

0:00:090:00:11

More on the huge storm in America that's caused this sinkhole.

0:00:110:00:15

And top tips if you want to be a super freestyle skier.

0:00:150:00:25

First, it's a huge weekend in the FA Cup and for Lincoln City,

0:00:280:00:31

one of the lowest-ranked teams left in the fifth round.

0:00:310:00:34

The non-league side is taking on Premier League team

0:00:340:00:34

Burnley, right now.

0:00:360:00:38

The second half's just kicked off.

0:00:380:00:41

The score is 0-0.

0:00:410:00:42

This was the closest chance in the first half -

0:00:420:00:45

a volley from Joey Barton, but it went straight

0:00:450:00:47

to Lincoln goalie Paul Farman.

0:00:470:00:51

Also playing today are the top two Premier League teams -

0:00:510:00:53

Manchester City are at Huddersfield, and leaders Chelsea

0:00:530:00:56

are going to Wolves.

0:00:560:00:58

Tomorrow, Manchester United play and Jose Mourinho has said top

0:00:580:01:01

flight foreign managers could do more to learn

0:01:010:01:03

what the FA Cup means to fans.

0:01:030:01:07

Maybe the, foreign managers, not everybody understands the culture of

0:01:070:01:12

this country.

0:01:120:01:16

I try always to go serious, I like Wembley, I like

0:01:160:01:22

the FA Cup, so I have to try to get to the second one.

0:01:220:01:27

In other news, the biggest storm in years to hit California

0:01:270:01:30

in America has been battering the state,

0:01:300:01:32

causing floods and sinkholes, as I've been finding out.

0:01:320:01:37

It's a storm so powerful it's being called bombogenesis,

0:01:370:01:40

or weather bomb.

0:01:400:01:43

Parts of California have been shut today.

0:01:430:01:44

The storms brought rain and winds of more than 80mph, toppeling trees

0:01:440:01:49

and causing sudden floods.

0:01:490:01:53

It's also opened up this sinkhole.

0:01:530:01:54

Thankfully, no-one was in this car when it fell in.

0:01:540:01:58

The dramatic images were shown on live TV.

0:01:580:02:01

Hundreds of homes have been evacuated because of fears

0:02:010:02:04

of mudslides near the city of Los Angeles, while flights have

0:02:040:02:07

been delayed or cancelled.

0:02:070:02:10

So far, at least two people have died.

0:02:100:02:13

This extreme weather is part of a series of storms that came

0:02:130:02:16

after five years of drought.

0:02:160:02:18

The storm is set to continue throughout the weekend,

0:02:180:02:21

with more rain expected next week.

0:02:210:02:24

Weather experts predict that 10 trillion gallions of rain

0:02:240:02:27

could fall on California.

0:02:270:02:30

For now, emergency teams are doing all they can to keep everyone safe.

0:02:300:02:34

Now, this next story is for anyone who spends too much

0:02:340:02:37

time on their phones - special pavement lights have been

0:02:370:02:40

installed at a crossing in the Netherlands.

0:02:400:02:43

The light strips are designed to catch the attention of people too

0:02:430:02:46

busy looking down at their phones.

0:02:460:02:48

They change colour to match the traffic lights

0:02:480:02:51

and it's hoped it'll help people cross the road safely.

0:02:510:02:54

It's an idea that's already been tried in other countries.

0:02:540:02:58

From bright lights to things that are shiny and gold.

0:02:580:03:00

If you're a fan, then you better be heading to Scunthorpe today.

0:03:000:03:03

Five golden objects are being hidden around the town

0:03:030:03:05

for people to find and keep.

0:03:050:03:07

It's all part of an art project with clues hidden in paintings

0:03:070:03:10

which go on display this morning.

0:03:100:03:13

The golden items are replicas of objects from North

0:03:130:03:15

Lincolnshire Museum.

0:03:150:03:17

They've been cast in 18-carat gold and are worth thousands of pounds.

0:03:170:03:23

Someone who's used to going for gold is freestyle skier James Woods.

0:03:230:03:26

He's just got back from winning gold at the X Games in America,

0:03:260:03:30

and he's one of Team GB's brightest hopes for next year's

0:03:300:03:32

Winter Olympics in South Korea.

0:03:320:03:34

Want to do the same one day?

0:03:340:03:35

Well, here are James's top tips.

0:03:350:03:43

My three top tips for anyone trying to get

0:03:430:03:45

involved in free skiing or

0:03:450:03:46

snowboarding in the UK would be, get down to your local

0:03:460:03:49

dry slope indoor slope, there are loads of

0:03:490:03:53

them around the UK.

0:03:530:03:55

Make sure you're having a good time while you're

0:03:550:03:58

doing it, whether it is skiing, snowboarding or any sport,

0:03:580:04:00

it is most important to be

0:04:000:04:01

having a good time and make sure you're motivated to do it.

0:04:010:04:05

Most importantly, stay safe about it.

0:04:050:04:07

Think about what you're going to do before it,

0:04:070:04:09

because it is all about enjoying it and pushing your limits and getting

0:04:090:04:13

as good as you possibly can be.

0:04:130:04:21

Thanks, James.

0:04:210:04:24

Showbiz news now and someone who doesn't need any

0:04:240:04:26

tips is Rag N' Bone Man.

0:04:260:04:27

He's top of the Albums Chart with the fastest-selling male

0:04:270:04:30

debut album of the decade!

0:04:300:04:32

Human has already been snapped up,

0:04:320:04:39

streamed and downloaded 117,000 times over the past week.

0:04:390:04:45

Well done, Rag'N'Bone Man!

0:04:450:04:48

Now you've probably watched Rag 'N' Bone Man or other pop

0:04:480:04:51

stars' videos on YouTube.

0:04:510:04:52

But have you ever been annoyed by the adverts that you can't skip?

0:04:520:04:55

Well, YouTube has confirmed that it's getting rid of 30-second

0:04:550:04:58

adverts that you can't skip from next year.

0:04:580:05:01

The company's told us it's going to focus on other formats

0:05:010:05:04

that work well for both users and advertisers.

0:05:040:05:09

Finally, we're meeting the stars of the new Beauty and the Beast

0:05:090:05:12

movie next week and we want YOU to get involved.

0:05:120:05:14

Newsround's going to the premiere to interview Emma Watson,

0:05:140:05:17

who's Belle, and lots of other actors who play enchanted

0:05:170:05:19

household items.

0:05:190:05:22

That got us thinking - if you had to be any

0:05:220:05:25

object in your home, what would it be and why?

0:05:250:05:27

Perhaps you'd be a tea cup, like Chip, a clock, like Cogsworth,

0:05:270:05:30

or maybe something else entirely.

0:05:300:05:33

Whatever it is - draw it for us, take a picture,

0:05:330:05:35

and send it in online.

0:05:350:05:37

We'll try and show some of them to the stars.

0:05:370:05:43

That's all from me on CBBC today.
