Good evening, the headlines on BBC Newsline: | :00:00. | :00:19. | |
As a 17-year-old appears in court accused of killing a young | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
woman in a hit and run - those who knew her pay tribute. | :00:23. | :00:30. | |
She was someone with -- who worked extremely hard, she was | :00:31. | :00:39. | |
compassionate, and she always had a wonderful sense of humour. | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
Politicians here follow the Prime Minister by | :00:43. | :00:44. | |
An inquest hears how this 11-year-old boy was close to an army | :00:45. | :00:51. | |
vehicle when he was hit by a rubber bullet in 1972. | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
Also coming up on the programme: A change of venue for the Irish Open - | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
it'll now not be held at the Lough Erne | :00:59. | :01:00. | |
Another missed opportunity for Rory McIlroy at the Masters - | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
he tells BBC Newsline what went wrong. | :01:06. | :01:14. | |
And a really messy weather picture, all thanks to this area of low | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
pressure in the Atlantic. Nineteen year old Lesley-Ann | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
McCarragher was jogging on Monaghan Road in Armagh | :01:23. | :01:23. | |
when she was knocked down by a car in a hit and run | :01:24. | :01:32. | |
on Saturday afternoon. A teenager appeared in court today | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
accused of killing her. The court was told the 17 year | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
old boy went to the police that night and told them he had sold | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
the car less than an hour Lesley-Ann McCarragher was jogging | :01:46. | :01:55. | |
just a few hundred yards from her home when she was hit and fatally | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
injured. Police believe the car was being driven by a 17-year-old boy | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
who cannot be named because of his age. | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
The accused had bought the car on Friday, but says he sold at 45 | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
minutes before this incident. A witness described seeing the car on | :02:14. | :02:20. | |
Saturday being driven at speed they estimated at up to 90 mph. They said | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
it appeared to be racing another car, a black folks wagon goal. | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
Detectives told the court that at one point the white Saab went to | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
overtake another vehicle, mounted the hard shoulder, and it was there | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
that it struck Lesley-Ann McCarragher. | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
The accused handed himself in on Saturday night, the car was found in | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
a garage rented by his brother. He is charged with causing death by | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
dangerous driving, failure to stop -- report an accident, and having | :02:58. | :03:07. | |
insufficient insurance. It was said that the woman who sold | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
the car received a text on her mobile phone asking her to say | :03:11. | :03:20. | |
whether she had sold the car. Later, the youth said he had bought it on | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
Friday but that he had soldered before the incident. | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
Today, some of those who knew Lesley and paid tribute to her. | :03:30. | :03:41. | |
-- Saab. She was compassionate, and had a great sense of humour. | :03:42. | :03:53. | |
Her death brings to the total 17 -- brings to the -- brings to 17, the | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
number of people killed on our roads this year. | :04:01. | :04:07. | |
The Prime Minister David Cameron decided to detail his tax returns to | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
try and defuse a row over his personal finances. The leaders of | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
all the main political parties here say they plan to do the same. Our | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
political correspondent reports. Ulster Unionist leader Mike Nesbitt | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
wasted no time getting his tax returns in order as he prepared to | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
publish them. His income from the Assembly is just over 52 and a half | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
thousand pounds. -- 50 ?2500. | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
I have no difficulty publishing this, there is a genuine public | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
concern that elected representatives are seen to be open and transparent | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
in all their dealings. This afternoon the First Minister | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
published her latest tax returns, which showed she earned just over | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
?78,000 from the Assembly, while her office expenses total 60 -- 60 | :05:00. | :05:07. | |
?5,500. The Deputy First Minister, the | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
Alliance leader and the SDLP leader said they will also put the tax | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
affairs in the public domain. I will gladly publish my very boring | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
tax returns, and I think others should do the same. There are no | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
offshore accounts here, and I think everybody who is a senior politician | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
in this country should do the same. I would love to see the Tory Cabinet | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
do the same. But how much will the figures | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
reveal? This expert believes the paperwork will raise many questions. | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
In terms of the information put into the public domain, to what purpose | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
is it going to be used? Is it really going to achieve anything really? | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
So, the question is will the decision by our political leaders to | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
publish their tax returns reassure the man or woman on the street? | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
People need to know what is going on. | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
And we trust politicians more if you concede documents like this? | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
Definitely. I think the trust for politicians | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
disappeared a long time ago. Will this lead to the overall cost of all | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
put in -- all politicians, probably not. | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
Would you trust politicians more if you could see their tax dealings? | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
I don't trust them anyway. No. Suffix makes no difference? | :06:32. | :06:38. | |
-- so this makes no difference? If it were my P 60, my wife doesn't | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
even see that! The Prime Minister hopes the | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
publication of his tax returns will defuse the row over his finances. It | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
remains to be seen what Tom if any, will be the fallout here. | :06:55. | :07:04. | |
Still ahead on BBC Newsline: The SDLP election manifesto - | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
we look at the party's plans and promises. | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
A long awaited inquest into the death of 11-year-old | :07:12. | :07:13. | |
Francis Rowntree, who was killed after he was hit by a rubber bullet | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
in 1972, has been told the soldier who shot him had a "clear view | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
Francis Roundtree was 11 when he was hit by a rubber bullet. | :07:21. | :07:34. | |
1972 was one of the worst years in the history of the Troubles. The | :07:35. | :07:43. | |
inquest into the death of Francis Rowntree was told the area was a | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
hotbed for rioting. Giving evidence today, a friend of Francis's, who | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
met him in 1972. He told the inquest that while he | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
could hear disturbances nearby, there were no cars on fire rioting | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
where they were. He said a group of up to six of them | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
were making their way through the flats complex when they came across | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
an army Saracen. Francis, he said, was more curious than the rest of | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
them. He started to walk towards the vehicle. He was not carrying | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
anything. He said the 11-year-old was just ten yards from the Saracen | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
when he heard a large bang. He said Frances seemed to be lifted off his | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
feet and jerked backwards. -- Francis. Counsel for the Ministry | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
of Defence asked him if he engaged in riots. | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
Yes, I was a serial rioter, he said, I took days of school to riot. | :08:44. | :08:50. | |
Asked if France's ever went rioting with him, no, not at all, he said. | :08:51. | :08:57. | |
-- Francis. Asked if Francis was the sort of | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
person who would get involved in rioting, his brother said today he | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
was never in trouble with the police or at school. | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
He was more involved or interested in sport, and that is all he thought | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
of, he wouldn't have gone out. As inquests hear evidence | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
on killings from the Troubles, the issue of how we deal | :09:24. | :09:25. | |
with the past still divides public No start date has been set | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
for the inquiry into the activities of the Army agent known | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
as Stakeknife, nor is it clear at this stage | :09:36. | :09:37. | |
who will be paying for it. We have been listening to a family | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
bitterly divided over whether the investigation should | :09:41. | :09:42. | |
take even take place. Joseph Buttler home's body was | :09:43. | :09:58. | |
dumped -- found John -- dumped on the border, having been shot by the | :09:59. | :10:05. | |
IRA. For a long period, the army's most high-ranking agent, known as | :10:06. | :10:12. | |
Stakeknife, was running the IRA's internal security network. The West | :10:13. | :10:19. | |
Belfast man denies being an agent. Stakeknife is now being investigated | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
in connection with the murder of 15 people. Joseph's father supports | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
this. Why did they not act? While it is | :10:32. | :10:38. | |
Stakeknife not in jail now? One of the problems when it comes to | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
dealing with the past is that not all victims want the same thing. | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
Some are seeking truth, justice, reconciliation, and some don't want | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
anything at all. To make matters even more difficult, there can be | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
differences even within families. Another pallbearer at Joseph | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
Mulheim's funeral was his younger brother Fran. Now living in the | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
North of England, he feels the inquiry is focusing on the wrong | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
people. Everybody's talking about | :11:10. | :11:11. | |
Stakeknife, but what about the people gradually pulled the trigger | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
is? Right now it just seems that they are sort of getting a free | :11:18. | :11:19. | |
pass. He also believes an inquiry into the | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
activities of Stakeknife is selective, and that other victims | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
are being ignored. Either you provide something for all | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
of the victims, all you do with none of them, you cannot cherry pick. It | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
causes resentment and doesn't allow the province to move on. | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
The family is also split over the cost. One estimate of the Bill is ?5 | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
million per year for five years. I think that some is probably | :11:48. | :11:57. | |
mentioned to come up with secured -- excuses why they don't have an | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
investigation. That money could be better spent on | :12:00. | :12:06. | |
teachers, nurses, or just doing something to help move on. | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
The PSNI has said its preferred option is to employ detectives from | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
outside Northern Ireland to conduct the inquiry. | :12:15. | :12:16. | |
The charity Extern is to take over some of the potentially life-saving | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
counselling work carried out by the mental health charity Fasa. | :12:20. | :12:21. | |
It was forced to close because of financial | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
46 staff members at Fasa were made redundant and thousands of people | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
on waiting lists were left in limbo after counselling | :12:31. | :12:32. | |
After several weeks of negotiations an arrangement has been now | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
reached between the Public Health Agency and Extern. | :12:37. | :12:46. | |
The SDLP has launched its Assembly election manifesto with a pledge | :12:47. | :12:48. | |
to give every new born child in Northern Ireland | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
The leader Colum Eastwood unveiled his election promises | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
as a third party councillor quit the SDLP after a row about candidate | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
Here's our political editor Mark Devenport. | :13:03. | :13:15. | |
Colum Eastwood's first manifesto since taking over as leader faces -- | :13:16. | :13:22. | |
features a number of pledges aimed at the younger generation. The SDLP | :13:23. | :13:29. | |
promises a fund which will include a ?250 payment to children at birth | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
followed by a further ?250 when they reach the age of ten. | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
The party will boost free childcare provision from 12.5 hours per week | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
to 20 hours, reduce tuition fees and reverse cuts to the number of | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
student places. The SDLP insists it will only join a Government which | :13:48. | :13:55. | |
commits to fairness in spreading wealth around, claiming there is a | :13:56. | :13:57. | |
gross disparity in investment between different regions. | :13:58. | :14:00. | |
Then there is a place called opposition, and if we do not achieve | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
the massive change that we didn't see in the last programme of | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
Government, we will not take place -- part in the Executive. We want to | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
invest in young people, invest in the economy and turn around the | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
stagnation and -- in the economy we have seen in the last ten years. | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
The launch happened here, but further west in County Tyrone, the | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
SDLP is experiencing a flight of its own councillors, with a third | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
politician resigning in a row over candidate selection. Disputes like | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
this happen at election time, but no doubt Colum Eastwood would have | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
preferred it if it hadn't coincided with its first -- his first | :14:44. | :14:45. | |
manifesto launch. Our economics and business editor | :14:46. | :14:46. | |
John Campbell is looking at some of the economic promises | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
and aspirations in each Funding for higher education has | :14:50. | :15:07. | |
been under pressure, the local universities haven't been allowed to | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
put up tuition fees, so they have responded by cutting student | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
numbers, and the amount is due to fall by 1700 across both | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
universities this year. Many commentators say this doesn't make | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
sense, and they were hoping corporation tax would bring lots of | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
high skilled jobs, so the SDLP said they would reduce that cut, add | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
another 1000 places across both universities, and do this without | :15:34. | :15:36. | |
raising tuition fees, in fact they would cut tuition fees by ?5,000 per | :15:37. | :15:42. | |
year. So they are making a very chunky spending commitment for | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
higher education. Preschool childcare, what is the | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
party planning to do there? As Mark was saying, they want to | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
move from 12.5 hours per week to 20, but ultimately what they are aiming | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
to do is get to 30 hours per week, but is a commitment that is going to | :16:00. | :16:06. | |
happen in England. That again is a fairly chunky spending commitment by | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
the SDLP. Reduce student fees, childcare, ?250 | :16:12. | :16:18. | |
for each new baby. How does the SDLP plan to finance that? | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
By my calculations that would be more than ?250 million per year over | :16:22. | :16:27. | |
the four year Assembly term, but what the SDLP point to mainly his | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
last Westminster budget, where it made another -- an extra ?223 | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
million per year available to the Executive. So they would say over | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
four year 's most of that money would be available and you can get | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
the rest by a fairly modest cuts in other departmental budgets. But the | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
big thing to remember about all these manifestos, because we have | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
come -- compulsory coalition, not everything will be implement it and | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
it will all be down to the negotiation two weeks after the | :16:59. | :16:59. | |
election. The Ukip leader in Northern Ireland | :17:00. | :17:10. | |
David McNarry has done a U-turn on comments he made about deporting | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
foreign doctors if they were He made the original comments | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
during an interview on BBC Radio Ulster's Nolan | :17:17. | :17:19. | |
programme this morning. Does that include a speeding fine, a | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
parking ticket? If a foreigner gets a parking ticket, they will be | :17:24. | :17:25. | |
deported? Yes. So a Polish doctor, working | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
really hard, overstays 30 minute parking, gets a parking ticket. | :17:31. | :17:36. | |
Yes. Why? Because he has broken the law. | :17:37. | :17:38. | |
Later today David McNarry said he needed to clarify his remarks. | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
He said no-one should be deported for a minor offence - | :17:42. | :17:43. | |
and Ukip would not deport anyone for anything other than a serious | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
offence followed by due process and conviction in the courts. | :17:47. | :17:56. | |
There's plenty to come on this programme before 7:00, including: | :17:57. | :17:58. | |
The Circuit of Ireland, as Craig Breen successfully | :17:59. | :18:00. | |
Next year's Irish Open will not be staged in Fermanagh | :18:01. | :18:09. | |
The Lough Erne Resort near Enniskillen had been scheduled | :18:10. | :18:17. | |
to host the tournament, but a coastal links course - | :18:18. | :18:26. | |
possibly Portstewart - will be chosen instead. | :18:27. | :18:28. | |
Here's our southwest reporter Julian Fowler. | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
The Lough Erne resort has held some big events, Rory McIlroy and Darren | :18:33. | :18:40. | |
Clarke played here in 2010. And the G8 Summit was here in 2013. When | :18:41. | :18:47. | |
helicopters, rather than golf balls, flew over the fairways. It was named | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
as the venue of the 2017 Irish open two years ago, and the new owners of | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
the resort have been investing in the hotel and golf course in | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
anticipation of hosting the tournament. But the organisers, the | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
European tour, want to move the Irish open to a traditional links | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
course. A statement said they are extremely disappointed that the | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
European tour has announced a change. | :19:13. | :19:34. | |
The news has come as a blow to the local tourism industry. | :19:35. | :19:41. | |
This part of the world needs events, we have a strong strategy for | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
events, and if a man is to strive -- thrive in the future, these events | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
are important for the local tourism industry and economy. | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
A European tour Chief Executive -- Executive came here last night -- | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
last week, and said well next year's Irish open will not be set -- held | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
here, he is confident the Lough Erne resort will host an event with the | :20:06. | :20:07. | |
European tour in the future. From the Irish Open to the Masters | :20:08. | :20:10. | |
in the United States at the weekend - the first major of the golfing | :20:11. | :20:13. | |
season, and it was another opportunity for the world | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
number three Rory McIlroy. Thomas Niblock has | :20:17. | :20:18. | |
this evening's sport. Reflecting on another failed trip | :20:19. | :20:20. | |
down Magnolia lane - Rory McIlroy says he needs | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
to improve mentally if he's ever to complete the grand | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
slam of golf's majors. A dejected McIlroy, who finished six | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
shots behind winner Danny Willett, told BBC Newsline he must learn | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
to cope with the pressure. Frustrated at Augusta again. It was | :20:35. | :20:53. | |
another tournament when Rory McIlroy failed on his master 's mission. The | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
relaxed approach which had worked so well early in the event disappeared, | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
and with it, his dreams of a Grand Slam. | :21:02. | :21:07. | |
The disappointment during and after his round was evident to see. | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
What do you go away thinking you need to do better if you are to win | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
a green jacket here? Just be mentally better. I felt like | :21:19. | :21:22. | |
I was very... I don't know what the word is, | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
if it was weak or if I Of course, you're going to be and I | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
just didn't handle it the best. Out of every tournament | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
in the world that we play, this is the one where I feel just | :21:35. | :21:37. | |
a little bit different than the others, for obvious | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
reasons, and I just have to learn how to control that because I think | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
that's all that's holding me back. I don't think anything | :21:44. | :21:46. | |
physically in my game It's more the mental | :21:47. | :21:48. | |
challenge of coming here and trying to do something that | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
I haven't done before. I know this golf course well, but it | :21:52. | :22:00. | |
is playing it when it really matters. I can go round here and | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
should in the 60s standing on my head when it doesn't mean anything, | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
but when you are playing for something else, that is when I have | :22:11. | :22:13. | |
to step up. So a dejected Rory McIlroy it leaves | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
Augusta trying to work out how to come back and win here next year. | :22:19. | :22:26. | |
The new Masters champion will help headline the Irish open next month. | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
Now, this is the sight Ulster rugby supporters didn't want to see. | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
Next season's star signing Marcell Coetzee limping | :22:33. | :22:33. | |
off injured playing for the Natal Sharks | :22:34. | :22:35. | |
The South African could be out of the game for up to nine months | :22:36. | :22:41. | |
because of a serious knee injury - but Ulster Rugby confirmed this | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
evening he will still be coming to Belfast later this year. | :22:45. | :22:46. | |
Les Kiss, director of rugby with Ulster, says his injury | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
It is unfortunate that it has happened. We'll move on, we've been | :22:50. | :23:01. | |
in touch with him and we will work out how his surgery goes. But | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
ultimately it is out of our hands anyway. We'll just focus on what | :23:07. | :23:08. | |
we've got this weekend. World Rally Championship driver | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
Craig Breen has successfully defended his Circuit | :23:15. | :23:15. | |
of Ireland title. After two demanding days | :23:16. | :23:17. | |
and fourteen stages around some of Ulster's most spectacular roads | :23:18. | :23:19. | |
the Waterford man and co-driver Scott Martin won by ten seconds - | :23:20. | :23:22. | |
overall the event was deemed a success by organisers | :23:23. | :23:24. | |
although some drivers did find the going a little | :23:25. | :23:26. | |
difficult at times. Now, it was the opening | :23:27. | :23:33. | |
weekend in the British superbike championship - | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
and a brilliant start to Starting from the second row, | :23:39. | :23:40. | |
the 34-year-old from Toomebridge took the lead on the first lap | :23:41. | :23:44. | |
and managed to hold off the challenge of Shane Byrne | :23:45. | :23:47. | |
to secure his ninth Laverty finished sixth in the second | :23:48. | :23:49. | |
race and now lies second overall, behind leader Byrne, | :23:50. | :23:53. | |

the British Superstock 1000cc series, riding | :24:04. | :24:05. | |
for the Quattro Plant Kawasaki team. Local football, Crusaders | :24:06. | :24:07. | |

at the weekend came compliments of second half | :24:12. | :24:14. | |
goals from Gavin Whyte and Jordan Forsythe, | :24:15. | :24:16. | |

was disappointment for Donegal in the semifinal of the Allianz | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
national football league. Trailing by five points | :24:29. | :24:31. | |
at half-time in Croke Park, Donegal got off to the worst | :24:32. | :24:36. | |
possible start after the break, with less than a minute gone | :24:37. | :24:38. | |
Bernard Brogan scored a goal for Dublin, giving | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
the All-Ireland champions That goal killed the game | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
as a contest as Dublin ran out comfortable winners, | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
beating Donegal by ten points. They now play Kerry | :24:52. | :24:53. | |
in the league final. Finally this evening, | :24:54. | :24:54. | |
a broken hand sustained in a club match means Tyrone goalkeeper | :24:55. | :24:57. | |
Niall Morgan will miss the National Football League Division Two final | :24:58. | :25:00. | |
against Cavan on Sunday week. The weather forecast | :25:01. | :25:07. | |
is coming up in a moment, but over the weekend we'd hail, | :25:08. | :25:09. | |
thunder, sleet and snow. Stormy conditions also led to three | :25:10. | :25:11. | |
fishermen getting into difficulty They were taken to safety in gale | :25:12. | :25:14. | |
force conditions and three-metre Geoff Maskell has | :25:15. | :25:22. | |
the weather forecast. Good evening. It was a miserable | :25:23. | :25:34. | |
morning this morning, with the rain coming down, and if you want one | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
word to sum up the next couple of days, I think "Messy" would be a | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
good one. This area of low pressure is swirling around of the Atlantic, | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
drawing in this weather front, pulling the rain in across Ireland. | :25:50. | :25:56. | |
This was its progress through the early hours of this morning is that | :25:57. | :26:00. | |
rain worked its way, and there were some pretty heavy bursts. | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
Over the next few days this front is going to sit across the British | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
Isles, it is heading towards the south of us this evening. It means | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
we have a reasonably dry few hours, but after midnight the front again | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
starts to head north, pushing into all parts after an increasingly wet | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
and windy night. Tuesday gets off to a similar start | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
to today, a pretty wet start, it will improve later on. But where we | :26:29. | :26:32. | |
saw the rain sinking south today, tomorrow we will say goodbye to it | :26:33. | :26:39. | |
as it heads north. Becoming increasingly drier across the rest | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
of Northern Ireland. Only a few holes in the cloud opening up, so we | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
will keep temperatures around nine or 10 degrees. It is really not | :26:50. | :26:52. | |
until the evening that we will see some more clearing skies, helping | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
the temperatures drop away a little. We will see overnight lows of | :26:57. | :27:02. | |
between two and 6 degrees. -- three and six. The rain we see -- said | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
goodbye to on Tuesday we see a on Wednesday. The front is increasingly | :27:09. | :27:16. | |
fragmented, still quite grey and cloudy, top temperatures of nine or | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
10 degrees. But I'm afraid it is generally a pretty grey outlook over | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
the next few days, and it's probably going to be a good week for travel | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
agents because with an outlook like that, I can't be the only one | :27:30. | :27:33. | |
thinking of some brighter skies ahead, can I? | :27:34. | :27:34. | |
