Good evening. The headlines on BBC Newsline: BBC | :00:00. | :00:24. | |
Newsline uncovers just how much school children are drinking to | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
excess. A senior civil servant reveals he | :00:29. | :00:30. | |
was told to change a letter A senior civil servant reveals he | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
Assembly committee by the Social Development Minister's private | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
office. A warning that tickets to the free | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
Van Morrison concert could be invalid if they've been bought or | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
sold. Why did the comedian Russell Brand | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
visit the Twaddell Protest camp in North Belfast last night? | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
Big changes for the Ireland rugby team for the visit of Australia, and | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
a chance for a young Ulsterman. There is a fair amount of settled | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
weather coming tomorrow, but how long will it last? I'll have the | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
details shortly. BBC Newsline has discovered that | :01:03. | :01:09. | |
last year there were 500 cases of children, that is under-18s, who | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
were so drunk they ended up in Accident and Emergency. A small | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
number under the age of 11 were also treated. It is an urban and rural | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
problem, with schoolchildren putting their mental and physical health at | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
risk. Tara Mills reports from the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast. | :01:23. | :01:40. | |
Imagine a teenager being so drunk that the end of the end here at AMD. | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
That was a scenario facing hundreds of families in Northern Ireland last | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
year. It is not just the excess quantities of alcohol. Some of the | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
young people were so ill they had to be admitted to hospital. | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
It seems we have accepted that young people will drink. The | :02:03. | :02:10. | |
authorities's focus is on how to manage the quantities. The | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
quantities appear to be getting bigger and bigger. This school in | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
north Belfast takes the bigger and bigger. This school in | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
seriously. It delivers an agency -- a public health agency programme | :02:23. | :02:24. | |
that gives advice on drinking habits. People get in trouble. If | :02:25. | :02:34. | |
you go out on a school night, you can focus the way he would do | :02:35. | :02:47. | |
normally. On a normal nights -- night, people would go away ten and | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
maybe have eight or nine drinks. Educating students about units and | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
measures is key, but away from the classroom, the temptation of Prince | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
promotions is not far away. It is hard to say no when you can get a | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
drink or 90p. You have the same amount of money with you and you | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
will continue spending it until it is all away. Casualties departments | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
in each trust area are seeing about 100 children every year, bringing | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
the total to 524 last year. Six children under the age of 11 were | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
also treated for the effect of alcohol. Between 50% and 60% of | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
young people will have drunk alcohol between the ages of 11 and 16. Of | :03:36. | :03:42. | |
that percentage, over half have been drunk on at least one occasion. It | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
is the drunkenness which is the bit that we are very concerned about. | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
There is a message for parents, too. In terms of monitoring and financing | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
and understanding what their child is doing once they leave the house, | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
boundary setting is crucial. Understanding consequences is | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
important for parents. Drink 's promotions are still commonplace. | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
Supermarkets are part of a competitive market. We can be | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
unrealistic and think that all children will not drink. It is about | :04:17. | :04:28. | |
damage limitation in some cases. With me I is Doctor Russell | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
MacLachlan. How worried should we be about this? We need to look at the | :04:35. | :04:42. | |
effects of alcohol on adolescents. It appears that the younger | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
adolescents, from the age of 11 up, they appeared to be drinking more | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
than the older adolescents. It is still not a hugely common | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
than the older adolescents. It is Last year the trust admitted 113 | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
patients were the primary cause was intoxication. There were between 11 | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
and eight team. That is a relatively small number. What you need to | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
appreciate is that is the tip of the iceberg. There are a lot of other | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
issues that go along with alcohol in adolescence, such as injury, | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
hazardous behaviour it makes more likely to be the victim of a crime | :05:28. | :05:34. | |
or perpetrate a crime, a violent crime or even be a victim of a | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
sexual assault. I drunk would you need to be to have to come to | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
accident and emergency? If the problem alone is alcohol | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
intoxication, we would from time to time need to admit young people to | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
hospital if they were so impaired through alcohol that they were a | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
danger to themselves, that they couldn't safely be discharged into | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
the care of the parents. If someone is unconscious through alcohol, they | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
could choke on their own vomit and died. The alcohol will work its way | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
out of their system, but the concern would be for their error way. If we | :06:11. | :06:19. | |
have those concerns, they would need to be admitted for observation. We | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
are seeing younger and younger people drinking. What are the health | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
implications for them? The first room is the hazardous -- the first | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
stream is the hazardous behaviour on the night, committing crimes, being | :06:36. | :06:42. | |
the victim of crimes and so on. The longer term physical impact sorrow | :06:43. | :06:58. | |
mental health problems. If you want to join the debate you can visit our | :06:59. | :07:01. | |

he was told to change a letter to an Assembly committee by the Social | :07:32. | :07:33. | |
Development Minister Nelson McCausland's private office. The | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
letter related to a meeting Mr McCausland held with representatives | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
of the construction company Turkington's. The Minister's | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
committee is hearing evidence to determine whether he misled its | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
members. Here's our political correspondent Martina Purdy. | :07:50. | :08:00. | |
Day one of the social development committee's earrings. The issue, | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
whether the Minister, Nelson McCausland, this led this committee | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
over a meeting he held in April 2012 with these men who say they met the | :08:09. | :08:15. | |
Minister as representatives of 's. This official also attended the | :08:16. | :08:17. | |
meeting and was subsequently asked to draft a letter about the meeting. | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
Today he revealed how the Minister 's office had taught him to change | :08:24. | :08:30. | |
Today he revealed how the Minister chairman. The Minister has read your | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
submission and has requested that the letter to Alex Muskie be | :08:34. | :08:42. | |
amended. Paragraph three, remove Turkington 's name. Another official | :08:43. | :08:49. | |
from the Housing executive, who also attended the meeting, give | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
evidence. When did you first hear the suggestion that the meeting you | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
had been out on the 16th of April was with representatives of the | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
Glass and glazing Federation? And the Minister made a statement in the | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
Assembly. Did that come as a surprise to you? Yes. Here is | :09:07. | :09:14. | |
Turkington 's representatives answering questions. You are | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
Turkington 's representatives clear the meeting was with | :09:18. | :09:26. | |
Turkington 's. Any reference to the Glass and glazing Federation was | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
simply about their standards, their guidance? So, there is no basis that | :09:33. | :09:45. | |
anyone could set was a meeting with the Glass and glazing Federation. | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
Those words would you several times. We told the meeting we were members | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
of its, that Ian is a past chairman of the Northern Ireland branch, and | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
thirdly the specification changes were at the specifications from the | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
Glass and glazing Federation. But at no point did you say you were on | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
behalf of the Federation? Absolutely not. The Minister will give his own | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
evidence to the committee next month. | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
The inquest into the death of a pensioner shot dead near Dungannon | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
will now take longer than expected because of new information. Roseann | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
Mallon, who was 76, was murdered by the UVF almost 20 years ago at the | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
same time as covert army surveillance teams were watching the | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
area. It has now emerged that the Historical Enquiries Team has | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
ordered a new forensic science report on the murder weapon and that | :10:35. | :10:48. | |
report is still incomplete. Hundreds of people have attended the | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
funeral of the former South Down MP Eddie McGrady in Downpatrick. The | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
78-year-old died on Monday after a long illness. He was a veteran of | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
the SDLP and among those paying their respects at Saint Patrick's | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
Church were past and present party colleagues including the former | :11:02. | :11:02. | |
leader John Hume. Representing colleagues including the former | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
Fein was the deputy first minister Martin McGuinness and for the DUP | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
the Minister Arlene Foster. In a note read out to the congregation | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
the Bishop of Down and Connor, Noel Treanor, described Mr McGrady as a | :11:15. | :11:23. | |
popular politician. People attending the free Van | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
Morrison concert in Belfast tomorrow are being reminded that tickets are | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
invalid if they have been bought or sold. Some tickets have already | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
appeared on the internet for sale. The show is being put on to | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
celebrate the musician becoming a freeman of the City. Kevin Magee | :11:37. | :11:37. | |
reports. Wouldn't it be great if it was like | :11:38. | :11:55. | |
this all the time? Our free Van Morrison concert for the citizens of | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
Belfast to be Morrison concert for the citizens of | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
waterfront. There are 2500 tickets in circulation. This is what they | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
looked like. It says clearly that if they are invalid if they are sold | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
for profit. That hasn't stopped some of them finding their way on the | :12:12. | :12:21. | |
black market. One tickets -- one ticket was set -- up for sale for a | :12:22. | :12:30. | |
set price of ?100. 2,000 tickets were allocated by a lottery. One | :12:31. | :12:37. | |
city fabric today raffled his allocation. I received an offer lots | :12:38. | :12:45. | |
of calls to see if I could get 's tickets. The fairest way I could | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
save this revealing them was to put them in a hat. The concept is | :12:51. | :12:59. | |
costing ratepayers ?50,000 to post. It is far too much, yes. It is | :13:00. | :13:08. | |
brilliant to have him. It is a bit much, really. I think it would be | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
worth it. He is brilliant. The council say that Van Morrison has | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
not asked for a fee, but the band and crew will be paid. The council | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
added it will be doing everything possible to ensure that tickets are | :13:26. | :13:27. | |
used only by those who were successful in the draw. | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
The name Russell Brand is often linked to controversy. Yesterday | :13:34. | :13:35. | |
afternoon, the hard-hitting comedian and actor paid a surprise visit to | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
one of Belfast's most contentious areas. He met loyalist protestors at | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
their camp on Twaddell Avenue during an unplanned visit. BBC Newsline's | :13:43. | :13:50. | |
Mervyn Jess reports. He is one of the more controversial stars of | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
stage and screen. He is often made headlines for what he has said and | :13:55. | :14:01. | |
he is taken to tumour -- taken his humour to both sides of the | :14:02. | :14:03. | |
Atlantic. Yesterday he brought a serious face to two Dell Ave and the | :14:04. | :14:13. | |
prospect -- and the protest camp. His visit was unannounced and came | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
as a total surprise to the two women and one man who were in the camp at | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
the time. It is understood he told them that he wanted to see a bit of | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
Belfast where he was in time and to find out what this camp is all | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
about. Unfortunately for us, he also requested that no food or graphs be | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
taken of his visit. Russell Brand was in the city appearing at the | :14:36. | :14:40. | |
waterfront Hall last night. There was no mention of his visit during | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
his performance. He left his mark on those who saw him at two Dell Ave. I | :14:46. | :14:52. | |
got a phone call from the camp saying that Russell Brand was here. | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
I thought it was a prank! Then he actually came on the phone and spoke | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
to me for about five minutes, asked about the camp and what its purpose | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
was and so on. He seemed like a really genuine, nice guy. Loyalist | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
protectors said that he was hoping to speak to people on the other side | :15:10. | :15:15. | |
of the interface as well, but this has not been confirmed. | :15:16. | :15:25. | |
When you look at the unemployment figure, you will see it continues to | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
When you look at the unemployment jobseeker's allowance, about 4,000 | :15:31. | :15:32. | |
fewer than nine months ago. But there are still big problems for | :15:33. | :15:36. | |
younger people. Our Economics and Business Editor, John Campbell, has | :15:37. | :15:45. | |
been speaking to one job hunter. Mark Wilson is 21 and from what | :15:46. | :15:48. | |
Belfast. He joined hundreds of others at this job is fair in the | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
city today. There are more than 1,000 vacancies to be filled. Like | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
many young people, he has had a restricting couple of years, with | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
few qualifications a little work experience, he has struggled to get | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
a job. How can a young person with no qualifications get into a job, | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
when people with degrees are applying for them? Obviously they | :16:12. | :16:19. | |
will get the job over myself. His story is far from unique. At 7.3% | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
the overall unemployment rate here is slightly better than for the rest | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
of the UK. Among people aged eight team to 24, it stands at 22.5%, | :16:28. | :16:39. | |
which is worse than the UK average. Mark is training with the Princes | :16:40. | :16:41. | |
trust and is open to find work in the care sector. The trust says | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
there is a high demand for its services. We are working with 3800 | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
young people a year that come from disadvantaged backgrounds. Many find | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
it impossible to get of in the job market. Yet on plumbing can cause | :16:56. | :17:02. | |
long-term damage to someone's prospects. The Minister responsible | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
says that is right tackling it is a priority. We don't want to lose the | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
value of the investments, the education, that these young people | :17:13. | :17:19. | |
have. Need to put an emphasis on youth unemployment. The unemployment | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
rate has been coming down for about nine months and the speed of job | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
creation seemed to have picked up recently. That is good news for the | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
people who were looking for jobs today. There is a long way to go | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
before we make all the ground that was lost during the recession. | :17:35. | :17:42. | |
One thing that is a job creator at the moment is the movie industry and | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
one of Hollywood's most influential directors has told BBC Newsline he | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
wants to make more films here. Paul Greengrass believes the legacy | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
of Derry's culture year must be jobs for young people. Here's our North | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
West reporter, Keiron Tourish. Paul Greengrass arrived in a local | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
movie theatre to begin his busy round of engagements. The Cinema | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
city Festival is a celebration of round of engagements. The Cinema | :18:05. | :18:13. | |
film. After meeting film enthusiasts, there was a special | :18:14. | :18:21. | |
showing of his latest work. The hugely successful Captain Phillips, | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
starring Tom Hanks. It tells the true story of a cargo ship hijacked | :18:26. | :18:36. | |
by Somali pirates -- pirates. The story of this city, in terms of its | :18:37. | :18:43. | |
ability to rebuild itself and come together, to overcome the legacy of | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
bitterness and move towards a brighter future is an astonishing | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
and inspiring story, not just for this part of the world, but for the | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
world 's in general. Paul Greengrass wrote and directed bloody Sunday, | :19:02. | :19:09. | |
which starred James Nesbitt. The film catapulted Paul Greengrass on | :19:10. | :19:15. | |
to a new level. He said it was the greatest privilege of his life to | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
have made it. Paul Greengrass is one of the most influential and | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
celebrated directors of his generation. His versatility is | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
underlying in several very successful releases, including Jason | :19:28. | :19:40. | |
Bourne films. While Paul Greengrass enjoys international success, he | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
says Derry must ensure its legacy. It is all about the legacy for young | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
people. We have got to grow and knowledge, Digital economy that can | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
provide real jobs and real opportunities for young people in | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
this city. As part of his visit, he also met lovely sandy families | :20:03. | :20:09. | |
before a screening of the film. Ireland's rugby players got their | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
Autumn series off to a winning start last weekend against Samoa, but this | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
Saturday is a different ball game. Gavin Andrews is here with more on | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
that. The Green and Gold are coming to Dublin. Joe Schmidt has rung the | :20:21. | :20:23. | |
changes for the visit of Australia. Some of his most experienced | :20:24. | :20:25. | |
internationals return to the starting line up, among them Paul | :20:26. | :20:29. | |
O'Connell, but for a young Ulsterman it's a chance to make his mark | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
against one of the best sides in the world. Nial Foster reports. | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
Look Marshall has learnt his trade the hard way. He burst into the | :20:37. | :20:38. | |
Ireland team last season in the six Nations, but had a head injury in | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
two of his three international appearances. On | :20:44. | :20:44. | |
two of his three international with the backing of the new boss. He | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
has played really well for Ulster. Got some experience last year in the | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
national team. I think we want to reward players who are playing with | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
form. We also want to grow the squad. He is a young man that has a | :21:01. | :21:08. | |
talent back and take us forward. Jonny Sexton replaces Paddy Jackson | :21:09. | :21:14. | |
Adelaide have. Read and comes in at scrum-half, Paul O'Connell captains | :21:15. | :21:15. | |
the side. I am motivated to try to make sure | :21:16. | :21:28. | |
that the players are as well-prepared as can be physically, | :21:29. | :21:35. | |
mentally, strategically. Luckily enough, my motivation extend to me | :21:36. | :21:43. | |
getting on the field to play! Northern Ireland manager Michael | :21:44. | :21:54. | |
O'Neill has received a boost on the eve of his side's friendly with | :21:55. | :21:56. | |
Turkey tomorrow evening. It is hard to believe it has almost | :21:57. | :22:09. | |
been fought night since the rumours of Boynton O'Neill -- of Martin | :22:10. | :22:19. | |
O'Neill started. Nikon it is dying to the nitty-gritty of the game | :22:20. | :22:29. | |
against Latvia. Trapattoni did brilliantly. He has been a great | :22:30. | :22:42. | |
manager all his life. Naturally, I would have liked to have had a | :22:43. | :22:50. | |
23-year-old Robbie Keane, instead of the 64-year-old Robbie Keane | :22:51. | :23:00. | |
excavation work --! His record is remarkable, really remarkable. I | :23:01. | :23:06. | |
want to play as long as I can. I'm not daft, I am going to be 33 the | :23:07. | :23:13. | |
next time the European Championships, Ryan. All I can do is | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
keep playing well and keep scoring goals. If he sees that, | :23:18. | :23:26. | |
keep playing well and keep scoring is no problems. If the game tomorrow | :23:27. | :23:30. | |
is half as entertaining as the press conferences have been this week, it | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
will be some match! Robbie Keane has signed a new | :23:37. | :23:45. | |
two-year deal with the LA Galaxy. Northern Ireland manager Michael | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
O'Neill has received a boost on the eve of his side's friendly with | :23:50. | :23:52. | |
Turkey tomorrow evening. One of his most consistent performers, Aaron | :23:53. | :23:54. | |
Hughes, wants to continue his international career into the next | :23:55. | :23:57. | |
qualifying campaign - the target is 100 caps. That is music to the ears | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
of everyone involved with the squad. Joel Taggart reports. | :24:02. | :24:03. | |
He has left the international stage once already, but despite another | :24:04. | :24:05. | |
disappointing campaign, and the 34th birthday this month, Aaron Hughes | :24:06. | :24:07. | |
has given his manager at the news that he wanted to hear. I had a | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
great conversation with him last night and we talked about a lot of | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
things. He wants to continue to play on. He has the target of 100 caps | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
and there would be no more fitting outfield player to attain that. | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
O'Neill is not the only one happy to see the former captain back to win | :24:25. | :24:36. | |
his 88th tomorrow night. All the lads are delighted that he will stay | :24:37. | :24:44. | |
on for at least another two years. One of those looking to push on is a | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
striker who is enjoying his best run of goal-scoring form in the side, | :24:49. | :24:54. | |
and the man who gave Michael O'Neill his only win so far. He is managing | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
his -- he is promising his manager more. There is a lot to come. I will | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
continue to work hard and try to improve. It is a big game for me | :25:06. | :25:11. | |
every time I pull on the green shirt. You need to be a certain | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
vintage to remember at the last win on Turkish soil for Northern | :25:17. | :25:19. | |
Ireland, but the international team coming to town is big news here. The | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
Turkish manager took his first the bold steps here, and the locals hope | :25:24. | :25:26. | |
that he will be sending Michael O'Neill home empty-handed. | :25:27. | :25:34. | |
The weather is next with Barra. The good news is, there will be a | :25:35. | :25:48. | |
lot of dry weather for any Children in Need activities outside. Could be | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
a bit of light rain and overnight tonight, but most places will stay | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
dry. For the cloud reaches the South East, it could turn chilly. By | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
morning, most places will have avoided frosty conditions. We have | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
an area of high pressure in control, and that means that the | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
cloud will remain quite thick at times. Little in the way of bright | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
weather. It will be mostly dry tomorrow, apart and maybe parts of | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
the far West, words that could be some damp weather. Temperatures are | :26:20. | :26:27. | |
going to be up tomorrow, up to 11 degrees, despite there being a lot | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
of cloud. There will be 12 spells of sunshine in the South East. Most | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
places will stay cloudy throughout the day. Tomorrow evening, we may | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
see a few spots of light rain or drizzle. Most places will stay dry. | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
Again, no frost tomorrow night as we head into the weekend. Temperatures | :26:47. | :26:51. | |
will be well up tomorrow night at about seven degrees, | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
will be well up tomorrow night at normally get during the day at this | :26:56. | :26:57. | |
time of year. Saturday gets off to a promising start, but it will turn | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
more unsettled through the day with rain coming in from the south-west. | :27:02. | :27:05. | |
It did take quite a while to reach the east, so if you're having to | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
Belfast for the turning on of the Christmas lights, hopefully the rain | :27:11. | :27:13. | |
will stay off until the lights are turned on. The butchers will stay | :27:14. | :27:16. | |
above average for the time of year because of the high pressure, but it | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
will be short lived. On Sunday, it will be cloudy and a bit of light | :27:22. | :27:27. | |
rain and drizzle. Next week the weather will start to come from the | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
Arctic, and we will begin to feel a lot colder. | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
