The headlines this Tuesday evening: A pensioner drowns in a Bessbrook | :00:15. | :00:16. | |

for her family's safety after their home is attacked during a spate | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
of hate crimes The home of the DUP They will come again, we fear. The | :00:26. | :00:37. | |
home of Mayor of Coleraine is attacked for | :00:38. | :00:46. | |
the third time in less than a year. It's revealed that only a quarter | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
of members of Northern Ireland's May the force be with you - | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
filming for the new Star Wars movie A Northern Ireland boxer makes | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
history at the Commonwealth Games. And there won't be much rain around | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
tonight, but showers are expected over the next few days, so it's time | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
to get the umbrellas back out. He didn't have a bad bone | :01:06. | :01:14. | |
in his body - that was one tribute to Oswald Bradley, | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
also known as Ossie, who got into difficulties when he was attempting | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
to swim across Bessbrook pond. He was trying to erect a union | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
flag alongside two tricolours which had been put up on a small island. | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
And it cost him his life. Our reporter Helen Jones spent the | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
day in the County Armagh village. the DUP a family grieving behind | :01:33. | :01:46. | |
closed doors. A father of two and grandfather of four lived here. | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
Described as larger-than-life, Oswald Bradley was a well-known | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
character who loved bowling and country and western music, and this | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
is where he died, a beauty spot which had become a talking point. In | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
a good village where relations are good, two tricolours appeared last | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
week on an island. I've spoken to a few people who say they were here | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
when Oswald Bradley walked into the water. He talked to the friend of a | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
17-year-old who tried to save him. He said he was going to put a Union | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
flag up alongside the two tricolours. He said Bessbrook is | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
50-50. He got into the water and shouted for help and his head went | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
under. This is where he collected his newspaper every day, and today | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
he was front-page news. There wasn't a sectarian bone in Oswald | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
Bradley's body, but he felt strongly that the values of shared space had | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
been breached by the bank that backed the planting of Irish | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
tricolour flags and he felt strongly that no one else was doing anything | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
about it and he needed to, with tragic consequences. Last week Sinn | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
Fein called for the people who put the flags up to take them down. They | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
work me moved by the police with agreement from local | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
representatives. A man gave his life and I think we should respect the | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
fact he died doing something he wanted to do, but it is an | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
opportunity that his memory should not be of someone trying to be moved | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
flags but that would contribute to the flags issue. Touched by tragedy, | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
even more real to the victim of Kingsmills. Oswald Bradley's cousin | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
was one of ten workmen killed in 1956. One survivor was his lifelong | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
friend. In a small village like this, everyone pulls together. We | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
Unite when something goes wrong, but Ossie, if there was a death in any | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
house, Ossie with be among the first to be there with a tray of some | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
witches asking if they needed anything, that is the kind of guy he | :04:02. | :04:08. | |
was, open hearted to a fault. A simple act and lost in thought, a | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
wreath is late. Friends, family and a close community in mourning. | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
A mother whose home was damaged in east Belfast last night says she | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
Paint was thrown, windows smashed and cars damaged | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
The police say they're investigating eight incidents in the area and are | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
treating them as hate crimes. Ciara Riddell reports. | :04:31. | :04:40. | |
There have been racist attacks in this area before but nothing on this | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
scale. There is barely a gable wall free from racist graffiti in the | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
streets of Bloomfield Avenue. Homes and cars were also attacked. This | :04:52. | :04:58. | |
woman and her children were victims. They moved here from Slovakia two | :04:59. | :05:06. | |
years ago. You see this, my children, we watched TV and... There | :05:07. | :05:28. | |
was a noise, boom. I don't know what this, I don't know. It's the prizes | :05:29. | :05:42. | |
as. She thinks they will come again. Neighbours were also shot. It shook | :05:43. | :05:49. | |
me up last night because I am a nervy person and it scared me, so | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
what would it be like for the families? They have to think about | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
the children, they are in the house. The police are investigating eight | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
incidents of hate crime and say they are doing everything they can to | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
find those responsible. Politicians are also calling for calm. | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
There was a level of orchestration to these attacks. | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
However, at this stage it is impossible to say whether any | :06:18. | :06:19. | |
We would appeal to members of the community, especially in that area, | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
or anyone who has any information about these attacks, to come forward | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
and provide that information to detectives at Musgrave using the 101 | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
The community need to come together and show people they are welcome in | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
the area and any information they have, they need to bring forward to | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
the police so they can bring these people to justice. Council workers | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
arrived early to cover graffiti but it is the damage due community | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
relations here that will be harder to raise. -- to erase. | :06:51. | :06:57. | |
The home of the DUP Mayor of Coleraine has been attacked. | :06:58. | :06:59. | |
Graffiti was daubed on the wall of George Duddy's house, | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
while a car parked in a nearby street was damaged. | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
A union flag was also removed from outside a third house | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
Here's our north-west reporter, Keiron Tourish. | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
This photo was taken several hours after the home of the George Duddy | :07:13. | :07:19. | |
was targeted overnight. The graffiti dog on a wall has since been painted | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
over. Mr Duddy says two neighbours were also singled out. It arose of | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
liquid was poured over a car part were also singled out. It arose of | :07:29. | :07:36. | |
the drive, or substantial damage was caused to paintwork. A Union flag | :07:37. | :07:36. | |
was removed from the front of a house and graffiti was prepainted on | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
the porch. I believe it is sectarian hatred. I fly a flag, they both fly | :07:43. | :07:51. | |
flags and I just put it down to pure sectarian hatred from a small number | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
of people. There has been condemnation of the attacks. We are | :07:56. | :08:02. | |
horrified at these actions. There is no lace in our society and our | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
country for these actions and we condemn what has happened in the | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
last 24 hours. Angry that this is the third occasion in less than 12 | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
months but the mayor has been targeted and his neighbours, and one | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
of his neighbours is a nurse who now cannot carry out her job in the | :08:20. | :08:28. | |
community, so is this is a vicious sectarian campaign that needs to | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
stop and the police need to stop it. The police are investigating a link | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
between all three incidents and are treating them as a hate crime. They | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
appealed for witnesses to come forward. | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
The police have recovered what they believe to be component parts | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
The items were found after the search of a derelict | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
Only one in four councillors on our new supercouncils is female. | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
The councils become operational next year following May's elections. | :08:56. | :08:57. | |
The new North Down and Ards has the lowest female | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
Belfast, both old and new, boasts one of the highest percentages. | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
And for the first time, all the top posts are held by women. | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
Our political correspondent Martina Purdy has this report. | :09:12. | :09:21. | |
For decades, it's been the men who dominated Belfast council, but not | :09:22. | :09:28. | |
this year. The Lord Mayor, Deputy Mayor and high share of our women. | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
This is the first time, and it has put the Spotlight on women in | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
councils, so is this a quirk in the system or a sign of the times? It is | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
a quirk that they coincided with the fact we are making so much of it is | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
a comment on the fact that women are not a minority, at least half the | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
population and we are so far short of that in terms of logical | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
representation. It is just a bit depressing it'd still be some | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
21st-century. Although women make up just over half the population here, | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
only 30% of councillors in the new Belfast supercouncils are women, a | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
small dip from the current council. In some cases women are better | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
represented in the new councils. Mid and East Antrim has a 30% ratio were | :10:19. | :10:25. | |
as large council has just 13%. The lowest percentage is in the new | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
North Down and aren't council, only 17% female, and in many of the 11 | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
new councils the percentage of women has dipped. In the newly merged | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
tarmac Ambridge and Craigavon Council, it is 26%, a drop from the | :10:40. | :10:48. | |
current 40%. The new Lord Mayor is only the third woman to hold the | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
post in a century. She has made the forgotten a theme of her year in | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
office and hopes to inspire other women into politics. I have an | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
initiative where one girl a month with shadow made and I hope to give | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
them an insight into what it is like to be Lord Mayor and connect it to | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
young girls across the city, so hopefully one of those girls you may | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
see as a future Lord Mayor. This teenager is out with the Lord Mayor | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
learning about the work of the welcome Centre, which helps double | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
dribble across the city. Would you like to be a politician? Yes, I | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
would like to make a change. Did you think there are enough women | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
politicians out there? If there are more, it would be good so they get | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
the same chance as men do. The Lord Mayor says women bring a much-needed | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
perspective to the table, so why do more not stand for office? I think, | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
doesn't that I think confidence is a factor, election is one, resource is | :11:50. | :11:57. | |
another, and I think those combined, childcare is another issue | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
that can be a challenge to women who have children because in politics | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
you work anti-social hours and it can be aggressive, so I think we | :12:06. | :12:12. | |
need a culture change. Parties say they are actively encouraging women | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
into politics, but under representation remains a problem not | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
just at council level it at Stormont and Westminster. | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
We did have a political party, the Women's Coalition, until 2006, | :12:24. | :12:25. | |
and with me is one of its former MLAs, Jane Morrice. | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
Does it matter that women are under-represented? | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
Of course it does. It is hugely important that our government | :12:34. | :12:40. | |
reflects the society in which we live and we want to see ourselves | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
reflect that in government and that makes for an equal society, for a | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
healthy arrangement for everyone. Do we need to force | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
parties to have quotas? It's been used before to increase | :12:55. | :12:56. | |
Catholic representation in the PSNI. A variety of things are needed. It | :12:57. | :13:05. | |
was interesting what the Lord Mayor said about confidence and party | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
quotas, about encouragement and support and childcare and flexible | :13:11. | :13:13. | |
working arrangements, all of these are needed. Certainly logical will | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
is very important and our parties should be doing out other way to try | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
to encourage women to come forward -- political will. That is about not | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
just tapping on them on the shoulder but saying here is what you can do | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
and what we can do for you, because they need to see they will look | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
better if they have more women in their ranks? Does it come down to | :13:38. | :13:46. | |
forcing the issue? Scotland and Wales have brought in quotas. It has | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
been far too long and we are moving in the right direction, it is up I | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
2% from the last councils so we are moving in the right direction but | :13:58. | :14:04. | |
too slowly. Rwanda has more than 60% in its parliament, it has been very | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
good at getting it, whether it is quotas or list systems or reserving | :14:11. | :14:17. | |
seats for women. I believe a combination of these things would be | :14:18. | :14:18. | |
valuable. Is it a case of women being | :14:19. | :14:23. | |
turned off politics here? Was it a bruising experience | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
for you? Definitely. Lots of people say did | :14:27. | :14:33. | |
you enjoy it, and I say enjoyable is not the word, challenging, | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
rewarding, interesting and fascinating, but it is tough, I | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
believe it is easier now than it was back then, but I do not think it | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
should put women. The more women in, the less tough it should be because | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
we can change the culture of politics to be less adversarial, | :14:54. | :15:00. | |
much more consensus-building, a different way of doing politics | :15:01. | :15:03. | |
which women bring to the table. Thank you for joining us. | :15:04. | :15:07. | |
It's 28 years since the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, | :15:08. | :15:09. | |
and dozens of local families continue to give up a few weeks | :15:10. | :15:11. | |
of their summer to provide children from the region with a holiday. | :15:12. | :15:14. | |
Today the 46 children from Belarus and the Ukraine were with | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
their hosts for a day out in County Fermanagh. | :15:18. | :15:19. | |
As our south-west reporter Julian Fowler found out, | :15:20. | :15:21. | |
the generosity of local people continues to make a big difference. | :15:22. | :15:30. | |
Since 1994, almost 3500 shoulder and from shrill but have spent a | :15:31. | :15:42. | |
three-week summer holiday here. As well as providing new experiences, | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
it has health benefits. These children are forced to suffer | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
through no fault of their own and it means their immune system is | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
severely damaged, especially young girls who suffer a lot of thyroid | :15:55. | :16:01. | |
problems, and bringing them here for three weeks are just that toxin | :16:02. | :16:09. | |
levels in their body by up to 40%. Many families hopes children year | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
after year. Sometimes we bring one, sometimes two. This year we brought | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
one and she is a treat to have in the house. What dishy like best | :16:20. | :16:28. | |
about her time in Northern Ireland? Walking around the parks, to see the | :16:29. | :16:40. | |
sea and walking on the beach. One of the interpreters first came here on | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
holiday as a seven-year-old. It is amazing to come back when you are | :16:46. | :16:53. | |
not a small child, as a grown-up, it is great and when you are | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
responsible for the children. Another interpreter was funded to | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
study childcare at Omagh college. The experience helped to go on to | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
university and become a teacher. Starting at Omagh college gave me a | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
good push to become a teacher of English, so it was my dream to come | :17:15. | :17:21. | |
back in Northern Ireland as an interpreter again. The charity has | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
helped children for the past 20 years and with people's generosity | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
its work is set to continue as the effects of the disaster will be felt | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
for many generations to come. The young people will return home in two | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
weeks, taking the memories of their time here and leaving behind the | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
many new friends they have made. It's been rumoured for weeks that | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
something intergalactic was about to land on the tiny island | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
of Skellig Michael in County Kerry. Scenes for the new Star Wars movie | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
are being filmed there, It's taking place inside a secret | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
cordon patrolled by a naval ship. The force is strong with Skellig | :17:59. | :18:14. | |
Michael. After much secrecy and speculation, Lee what is out of the | :18:15. | :18:22. | |
bag. The new Star Wars movie is filming on the UNESCO Heritage site | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
in County Kerry and there is a force field around the island to make sure | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
no one gets a sneak preview. An Irish naval ship is patrolling a | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
two-mile exclusion zone around the rock. This isn't the first lot | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
faster to be shot here and people are looking pod to the inevitable | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
influx of Star Wars fans. You have generations that have enjoyed Star | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
Wars and I think you will have them coming to the island for years to | :18:52. | :18:57. | |
come. You see the impact a film has an areas, especially Ryan's | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
daughter, so it is great to see a global production come in. Local | :19:03. | :19:09. | |
boat crews have been drafted in to provide ferry crew and equipment. | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
Meanwhile it is thought the stars are being flown in by helicopter. | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
There is a chance Harrison Ford is in there, possibly even Mark Hamill, | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
both of whom are in this latest chapter. As do what you're doing on | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
Skellig Michael, we will have to wait for the film's release to find | :19:27. | :19:29. | |
out. It's day six at the | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Let's find out how | :19:34. | :19:35. | |
Northern Ireland's athletes have been faring today, and join | :19:36. | :19:37. | |
Stephen Watson live in Glasgow. NI's boxing team remain | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
on course to better the five medals Three are in quarterfinal | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
action this evening. Unfortunately, | :19:47. | :19:49. | |
Ruairi Dalton lost this afternoon, but there are still nine boxers one | :19:50. | :19:51. | |
win away from at least a bronze. One | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
of the fighters made a little bit Belfast's Michaela Walsh won | :19:57. | :19:58. | |
the first ever women's boxing match All the hard hours spent training | :19:59. | :20:17. | |
paid off last night for Michaella Walsh. The 21-year-old flyweight | :20:18. | :20:23. | |
gave a mature display to pick off her opponent and emerge victorious | :20:24. | :20:30. | |
on all three judges' scorecards. I'm happy with my performance the just | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
to get the first one out of the way and I believe I can make the final, | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
the Golden girls here but hopefully she won't be the golden girl for | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
much longer. I have worked so hard for this and it is all paying off. | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
This is a dream come true and just start tonight. Earlier today, Ruairi | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
Dalton saw his hopes of a metal dashed after losing a bruising | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
encounter to Andrew Moloney. He was the better man. He was a quick | :21:03. | :21:08. | |
starter, I think I lost the will that I came here and want to fight | :21:09. | :21:17. | |
so I didn't do that badly. Nine other boxers from the team are still | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
in with a chance of a medal and one former Commonwealth champion thinks | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
that is not by chance. I think it is just, we love combat and I think | :21:29. | :21:34. | |
that we are especially suited to boxing and we are good at it, one of | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
the top fighting nations in the world. With a population, north and | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
south, of 5 million people, one of the top five nations in the world, | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
it is remarkable. Joe Fitzpatrick will be the first of a Northern | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
Irish trio in action tonight, looking for a wind that will secure | :21:54. | :21:55. | |
a medal. -- a win. Our prolific shooter David Calvert | :21:56. | :22:01. | |
just missed out on a medal, finishing fourth in the full bore | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
rifle by just a single point. And he wasn?t the only one out | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
of luck. One thing you don't want during the | :22:09. | :22:20. | |
mountain bike race is a puncture. That's exactly what happened to | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
Claire Oakley. She may have been last, but was determined to finish | :22:25. | :22:33. | |
the race. And much appreciated either supporters here, just how | :22:34. | :22:37. | |
much effort that has taken her to finish this course. But one Northern | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
Irish competitor was enjoying his games today. Following in the great | :22:43. | :22:50. | |
tradition of the Catholic Church in Northern Ireland in the 1970s. Peter | :22:51. | :22:57. | |
Glass was making his first appearance in the catalogue after | :22:58. | :23:04. | |
the pole vault. Ben Reynolds is out of the 100 metre hurdles. He | :23:05. | :23:11. | |
finished sixth in his eight. -- in his heat. Matthew Cosgrave impressed | :23:12. | :23:23. | |
during his parallel bars routine. That was a good routine, safe and | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
secure. Nicole Moore Winnie stood out as she bids for a place in the | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
individual all-around final -- Moni. Sister Ray Maflin won her heat in | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
the 400 metres freestyle -- Sycerika McMahon. She helped the team into a | :23:41. | :23:49. | |
final. Our net bowlers will take on the hosts, Scotland, tomorrow. And | :23:50. | :23:55. | |
in lawn bowls, the men are trying to add to their silver medal won | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
yesterday. A win tonight and they will be into the knockout stages. | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
Let's keep our fingers crossed for more medals. | :24:05. | :24:07. | |
Northern Ireland got their Milk Cup youth football tournament | :24:08. | :24:09. | |
off to the perfect start thanks to a 2-0 victory over China. | :24:10. | :24:12. | |
Crowd favourites Manchester United scored plenty of goals, but it was | :24:13. | :24:14. | |
a local player who has provided the highlight of the tournament so far. | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
Many of the world's top players made their name in this competition and | :24:18. | :24:29. | |
the likes of Wayne Rooney or David Beckham will have been proud of a | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
girl like this. 16-year-old Mark Sykes' stunning kick helped County | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
Antrim to a victory over County Down. There were goals galore for | :24:39. | :24:46. | |
Manchester United as they had 11 pass Australian side Gold Coast | :24:47. | :24:47. | |
Academy. -- they had 11 past them. Manager Stephen Creggan will have | :24:48. | :25:04. | |
few complaints about Northern Ireland's's opening performance. | :25:05. | :25:11. | |
First-half goals were the difference against China and they will be back | :25:12. | :25:13. | |
in action tomorrow night as they face the holders, Mexico. | :25:14. | :25:24. | |
More from the Milk Cup on our late bulletin, and all the latest | :25:25. | :25:27. | |
Now, Cecilia, time for weather. What is in store? What would you like? | :25:28. | :25:34. | |
Sunshine, please. Now, Cecilia, time for weather. What | :25:35. | :25:37. | |
is in store? What would you like? Sunshine, please. It wasn't too bad | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
today but it is looking more and settled over the next few days. | :25:44. | :25:45. | |
There was cloud in the north and west but it is spinning in Belfast, | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
down and our maths and that is how it is looking at the moment, | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
sunshine this evening over Armagh and County Down, dry until the early | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
hours when there will be showers in the north and west, but where skies | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
are clear temperatures will drop to around 12 degrees. Tomorrow you will | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
need the umbrella because showery Rane will move south. It is in the | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
north and west initially, hits Belfast in the rush-hour and slides | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
south towards midday. It will be weakening and it looks like we will | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
see sunshine in the afternoon. Dividing the day ended two, the | :26:23. | :26:28. | |
morning more likely to see rain and the afternoon more dry than wet, | :26:29. | :26:31. | |
although there are still a few showers around but in between there | :26:32. | :26:37. | |
will be cleansers of sun, still quite indivisible breeze but | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
temperatures similar to today. Maybe we will squeeze in 21 in parts of | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
south down. A few showers around, reasonably bright as we end the day | :26:47. | :26:50. | |
and then tomorrow night not much changing, just a few showers, but | :26:51. | :26:55. | |
towards the end of the night there will be heavy showers for Thursday | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
morning. There is the I suspect will bring heavy rain and possibly a risk | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
of thunder, at least in the first half of the day, it should turn | :27:04. | :27:09. | |
drier later on because a couple of weather fronts move in on Thursday. | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
Low pressure settles just beside us for the weekend, so we will not see | :27:14. | :27:17. | |
a return to dry and sunny weather this weekend but it is not a | :27:18. | :27:23. | |
complete wash-out. There will be sunshine and always a few showers | :27:24. | :27:26. | |
nearby so you will need to make the most of the dry and bright gaps but | :27:27. | :27:28. | |
keep an umbrella handy. can also keep in contact with | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
us via Facebook and Twitter. tomorrow. But Andrew Osagie | :27:34. | :27:42. | |
controversially was disqualified from the 800 metres. He said, | :27:43. | :27:45. | |
unbelievable actions to get I leave the ashram, travel halfway | :27:46. | :27:51. | |
across the world to find my father, Oh, well. As Vashrati says, | :27:52. | :27:58. | |
gotta keep smiling! | :27:59. | :28:02. |
