Welcome to Wales Today, the top story tonight. | :00:04. | :00:08. | |
Kirsty Jones was murdered in Thailand 12 years ago. As Welsh | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
police prepare to head out there again, her mother describes the | :00:11. | :00:14. | |
families continuing ordeal. Even if we got someone for murder, it would | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
not make life any easier without her, but it would mean we got some | :00:18. | :00:28. | |
:00:28. | :00:36. | ||
sense of justice and she could rest Also tonight. | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
A van driver airlifted to hospital after a collision at a crossing | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
with a train. Doctors leaders warn against slash | :00:42. | :00:48. | |
and burn cuts in the NHS. Green bags, brown bins, kerbside | :00:48. | :00:58. | |
:00:58. | :01:02. | ||
collections. Are we getting too confused about recycling. B e to e | :01:02. | :01:08. | |
r s. The D T Y us. And how spelling Betws-y-Coed | :01:08. | :01:18. | |
baffles. Is it the most misspelt Good evening. Two senior detectives | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
from Dyfed Powys Police are to travel to Thailand in a renewed | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
effort to track down the killer of Welsh backer Kirsty Jones. Officers | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
believe a DNA profile that's already in their possession will | :01:29. | :01:39. | |
:01:39. | :01:44. | ||
It was meant to be the trip of a life time. But just three weeks in, | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
Kirsty Jones was strangled and raped in this hostel in northern | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
Thailand back in 2000. Twelve years on and her killer still hasn't been | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
found. Back home in Brecon, the 23- year-old's family still struggle | :01:57. | :02:07. | |
:02:07. | :02:07. | ||
knowing no-one's been brought to justice. Whoever did this has | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
committed a crime for that they have taken away a wonderful young | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
life. Even if we got someone for the murder, it would not make life | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
any easier without her but it would give us some sense of justice and | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
she could rest in peace. Today, Dyfed Powys Police announced two | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
senior detectives are flying out to Thailand this weekend. They've been | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
helping the authorities there for the past 12 years. Back in 2002, | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
their forensic officers were able to piece together a full DNA | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
profile of the killer. Now they feel the time is right to visit | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
again to encourage investigators there to renew the search for a | :02:41. | :02:51. | |
:02:51. | :02:57. | ||
match. From hairs that were recovered at the scene, a full DNA | :02:57. | :03:05. | |
profile was recovered. We have always suggested that they identify | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
the individual and that is key to the investigation. It's a step | :03:11. | :03:18. | |
forward for Kirsty's family. Even if they were surprised by it. | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
did not know if they would go or not. It is down to resources and | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
what they think they can do. But we are pleased they are going because | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
they will get first-hand information as to what they were | :03:30. | :03:38. | |
arguing over there. Speaking two officers, they say the answer to | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
the murder lies and over there. It is after them to put pressure on | :03:44. | :03:52. | |
the other oddities. -- authorities. A man is being treated in hospital | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
after a train crash at a railway crossing in Powys. The incident | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
happened this morning and happened when a train hit a van at a single | :04:00. | :04:10. | |
:04:10. | :04:16. | ||
track crossing. No passengers were injured this morning. It happened | :04:17. | :04:24. | |
at around 12:30pm. The train was travelling from Newtown. It hit a | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
white van on the track behind me. The front part of the van was | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
smashed. The van and was thrown and landed on its roof in a ditch in | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
the or the track. The emergency services were called to the scene | :04:38. | :04:45. | |
and one man was taken to the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital. They're rather | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
a couple of gates. The normal procedure is for reform in the | :04:51. | :04:58. | |
Yellow Box to be used. It is not clear what happened in this | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
incident but Transport Police are treating it as a serious incident | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
and they are investigating. It is a very a remote location. We are | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
speaking to people that were on the train and that will be followed up | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
during the course of our investigation. If there were dog- | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
walkers or anyone in the countryside, please get in touch. | :05:22. | :05:32. | |
:05:32. | :05:34. | ||
What details are known about the We understand the driver was 36 | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
years old and work-related the engineering company. There is a | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
farmer on the tracks -- on the other side of the tracks and is | :05:43. | :05:50. | |
presently was on his way there. He was carried by air ambulance to the | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
Royal Shrewsbury. None of the passengers who were on the train at | :05:56. | :06:05. | |
the time were injured in any way. Buses have been carrying travellers. | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
The track has now been reopened. The founder of Flintshire-based | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
supermarket chain Iceland is in talks with his management team to | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
buy the company ahead of other contenders. Malcolm Walker has | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
reportedly bid �1.5 billion for the frozen foods firm. The talks are | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
with two Icelandic banks, which own 77% of the shares. Mr Walker | :06:23. | :06:32. | |
started the company after investing �30 in a shop in Oswestry in 1970. | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
Fire chiefs are warning of the dangers of electric faults after a | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
blaze in Llandudno which left three people in hospital. Investigators | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
say yesterday's fire was caused by an electrical short circuit in a | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
cupboard. An elderly woman and her son are still in intensive care | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
after suffering smoke inhalation and severe burns. Another man was | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
released with minor injuries. Health Minister Lesley Griffiths | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
has defended her Government's reforms of the NHS in Wales after | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
accusations of a slash and burn approach from doctors' leaders. | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
Wales is the only part of the UK where NHS spending has not been | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
ringfenced. In a moment I'll be speaking to the secretary of BMA | :07:13. | :07:23. | |
:07:23. | :07:24. | ||
It was hard hat time for the Health Minister today. Lesley Griffiths | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
was in North Wales to announce the �90 million redevelopment of Ysbyty | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
Glanclwyd. But she also came under attack from doctors leaders. Cuts | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
to NHS spending in Wales, they say, are poorly planned and seem to be | :07:36. | :07:46. | |
:07:46. | :07:46. | ||
the result of a panic. The health boards are given a huge amount of | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
money to provide services and I expect them to live within their | :07:50. | :08:00. | |
:08:00. | :08:01. | ||
means and come in on budget. I had a very constructive discussion. | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
health boards try to cope with cuts we can expect to see more scenes | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
like these. 550 people attended a public meeting in Aberystwyth last | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
Friday to discuss the future of the town's hospital. Nobody from the | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
Hywel Dda Health Board was at that meeting. But today a delegation, | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
led by the board's chief executive, gave a presentation and answered | :08:16. | :08:24. | |
questions during a full meeting of Ceredigion Council. I do not think | :08:24. | :08:30. | |
there are threats to the basic service. We had today, at the | :08:30. | :08:38. | |
moment, very little is likely to move. It plays a pivotal role in | :08:38. | :08:45. | |
the geography of Mid and West Wales. Patients and doctors at Bronglais | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
have said they're worried the hospital could lose vital services | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
as a result of the health board's reforms. The board tried to ease | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
those concerns today and insisted no decisions have been made yet. | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
But that did little to convince some of those sitting in the public | :08:57. | :09:06. | |
gallery. I think the population and the commissions and the people I | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
represent have lost faith in the board. I have come out of their | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
thinking it is all smoke and mirrors. They have made various | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
promises but I have heard various promises made by various health | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
boards over many years. It's a similar story elsewhere. This was | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
Llanelli on Saturday where campaigners marched in opposition | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
to possible changes to the A&E department at Prince Philip | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
Hospital. And as another public meeting get underway in the town | :09:35. | :09:44. | |
this evening it Lesley Griffiths Richard Lewis is Secretary of BMA | :09:44. | :09:53. | |
Cymru Wales. He joins me here in the studio. Slash and burn, that is | :09:53. | :10:00. | |
a pretty emotive term? It is. The important issue here is not to look | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
at the emotive terms but what is going on. We do appreciate that hat | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
boards are under pressure and it is challenging times for everybody. | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
The key thing about service changes is that they are properly consulted | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
upon. We know that health services we need to alter going forward to | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
the future whether it is modernisation or trying to will | :10:25. | :10:31. | |
provide a progressive NHS service. When health boards are deciding or | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
putting proposals forward, it is important that they involve health | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
professionals on the ground and they involve doctors and patients | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
and community health councils and take those people along with them | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
in the decision-making process. When the dialogue does not occur | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
then we see the problems we have heard in the clip. The Health | :10:52. | :10:58. | |
Minister says she is listening and there are consultations. Is the | :10:58. | :11:04. | |
Welsh Government getting it right? We have good delicious with the | :11:04. | :11:12. | |
were Welsh Assembly Government. One of our major concerns is about the | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
lack of doctors in Wales and we welcome recently the initiative to | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
do a marketing campaign to introduce more doctors into Wales | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
and some of that has underlie some other problems have boards have in | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
being able to deliver services. There are clearly concerns about | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
the way services are going to evolve in Wales. A sports have a | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
difficult job at hand. The important thing is to maintain a | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
dialogue and consults health officials and consult with the | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
public to ensure any proposals for change are properly thought through. | :11:46. | :11:53. | |
And getting the public on side. Since the report years ago that the | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
status quo could not be maintained. Absolutely. We know there is a need | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
to change services in Wales. There are some tricky decisions to be | :12:01. | :12:09. | |
made. People are wedded to the way services are designed for that that | :12:09. | :12:15. | |
is important and that is why we need to have a dialogue so that | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
everyone is satisfied and we continue to provide safe and high | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
quality accessible services to everybody in Wales. | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
Still to come on Wales Today. It has a similar landscape. Wales | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
looks to the Basque country for lessons in securing the future of | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
the language. Three little words, but internet | :12:36. | :12:46. | |
:12:46. | :12:54. | ||
searches show 364 different Efforts to increase the amount of | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
rubbish being recycled are being hindered because the Welsh | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
Government and councils aren't working together well enough. | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
That's according to the public spending watchdog, the Wales Audit | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
Office. A new report says that even though Wales has the highest | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
recycling rate of the UK nations, long-term improvements face | :13:09. | :13:18. | |
substantial barriers. Mark Hannaby reports. | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
This is how the Welsh government wants to collect waste for | :13:21. | :13:26. | |
recycling. Each sort of rubbish is separated at the kerbside and | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
compartmentalise reform it is taken away. The government doesn't like | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
it when different sorts of waste are mixed, such as bottles, cans | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
and cards in the same green bags. Some councils and private companies | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
disagree, saying modern machinery can sort the waste mechanically. | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
The report says differences in approach pose substantial barriers | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
to raising the cycling rates. To achieve the higher levels that | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
we aspire to, we do need some level of agreement and better co- | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
operation between Welsh government and local authorities. We feel that | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
at the moment, the discussion and some of these tensions are | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
deflecting focus away from working together effectively to achieve the | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
best possible results. Councils have been set a target of | :14:11. | :14:18. | |
recycling 70% of all waste by a 2025. Rates have been rising, | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
hitting 43.6% this year. But the report says councils are fixated | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
with the cycling targets and unconvinced that government plans | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
are appropriate. Some authorities fear that the Government might | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
employed legislation all cuts in funding to force them to use | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
approved recycling methods. I think the government are trying | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
to do him little bit of micro management. I would advise them to | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
say, let's agree on the outcome and where we arrive there, how we | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
achieve that goal, is a matter for the council. | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
The report says better guidance is needed from Welsh government. Most | :14:54. | :15:04. | |
:15:04. | :15:05. | ||
But which is the best way? The chief Executive of eras cycling | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
organisation is adamant its best to separate waste at the kerbside. | :15:09. | :15:14. | |
As far as I am concerned, there isn't a contest. Kerbside sorting | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
is the only method, as has been proved over years. We have been a | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
cycling for 30 years and wherever we have introduced that carefully, | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
it has worked really well. The Welsh government points out | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
recycling rates in Wales are higher than any other UK nation but the | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
report also makes clear that recycling alone won't meet | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
environmental targets. We need to produce less waste in the first | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
place. A group of squatters evicted from | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
an empty hotel in Swansea earlier this week say they're setting up an | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
art studio and cafe in the old JT Morgan department store in the city | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
which has been unoccupied for four years. Members of the Cwtch group | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
say they're offering a useful space for the community. On Tuesday a | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
judge ordered them to leave the Dolphin Hotel after they set up | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
camp in the empty foyer. The group claim they entered the store | :16:00. | :16:07. | |
legally through an unsecured window. There is a negative impression of | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
squatters, associated with drugs and young people but I tell those | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
people to come along when we are open and see what we do and see we | :16:15. | :16:18. | |
are a community space full of hard- working people who love Swansea and | :16:18. | :16:20. | |
want to make it a better place to stop | :16:20. | :16:22. | |

This week we've been looking at the future of the Welsh language and | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
it's not alone as a minority language facing a difficult future. | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
The equivalent of �60 million is spent on promoting and developing | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
the Basque language annually, while in Wales, the Welsh language board | :17:29. | :17:37. | |
spends under �14 million. So how do the two languages compare? Owain | :17:37. | :17:47. | |
:17:47. | :17:47. | ||
Evans went to the Basque Country to With its mountainous terrain and | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
miles of coastline, the Basque country has plenty in common with | :17:51. | :17:57. | |
Wales. Both are home to a minority language, side by side with some of | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
the world's most dominant languages. But it may not have survived if it | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
wasn't for this man. He is an author, academic and politician who | :18:05. | :18:10. | |
died last month. At eight service in San Sebastian, he was remembered | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
by many Basques as a hero who keeps keep the language alive by defying | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
the Spanish dictator. Over the decades, the Bath revival has gone | :18:20. | :18:30. | |
:18:30. | :18:30. | ||
from strength to strength. -- the Basque revival. | :18:30. | :18:35. | |
Industrialisation in northern Spain was concentrated in the Basque | :18:35. | :18:40. | |
country and they had a strong banking sector so although the | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
Basque country, geographically, everything was on the periphery, | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
the Basque country has always been a very strong player economically. | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
How do the languages compare? Like Welsh, them are more than 600,000 | :18:55. | :19:00. | |
basks because in the Spanish Basque country. In both nations, the | :19:00. | :19:05. | |
public sector has to provide services in those services. We have | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
Welsh medium education and they have asked medium education. We | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
have Welsh-language TV and radio and they have regional and local | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
Basque TV as well as a daily newspaper. They spend around �50 | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
million more on developing and promoting the language than we do | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
on Welsh. They have a constitutional right here to know | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
and use Basque. Language campaigners say that doesn't always | :19:29. | :19:34. | |
count for much. It is true that may be in some | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
towns where bask speakers are more than the other, maybe you are right | :19:40. | :19:46. | |
and it would be an advantage. If you go to the station, Hospital, Dr, | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
or to the court, you must have a proactive action if you want to | :19:52. | :19:58. | |
have your right granted. Despite the efforts of pioneers, | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
the Basque language faces many challenges. Like Welsh and other | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
minority languages, perhaps one of the greatest challenges is | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
persuading people to use the language. The current Basque | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
government may not be as keen to spend on the language as its | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
predecessors and economic situation may also have an influence. For now, | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
supporters of the language aren't too concerned about what is on the | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
horizon. Sport, and at the Welsh Open | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
snooker in Newport it's been a disappointing afternoon for the two | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
remaining Welsh players. Matthew Stevens is out after losing to | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
Scotland's Stephen Maguire by four sets to two and Mark Williams' good | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
run of results was brought to an end by the former world number one, | :20:36. | :20:38. | |
Ronnie O'Sullivan, who made it through to the quarter finals with | :20:38. | :20:48. | |
:20:48. | :20:50. | ||
He has been playing in consistently well so for me to get a victory, | :20:50. | :20:56. | |
especially after the two years that I've had, just to get a victory of | :20:56. | :21:01. | |
someone of his quality, in a major tournament, is good, you know. | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
It's not the trickiest of Welsh place names but Betws-y-Coed seems | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
to be confusing many. Research shows it's been spelt in internet | :21:08. | :21:13. | |
search engines 364 different ways! So how confused are tourists | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
getting? Matt Murray has been out to put people to the test. | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
Set in Snowdonia National park, Betws Y Coed attracts thousands for | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
it's stunning landscape but finding it in the first place is proving a | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
struggle for many. Research shows it's been spelt in internet search | :21:25. | :21:33. | |
engines 364 different ways! From Betsy Co Wed to simply people | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
getting no further than Bets. So you wouldn't put your money on many | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
spelling it right. Eileen Burtonwood, runs a guest house and | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
is chair of district tourism association. She's been staggered | :21:44. | :21:52. | |
by the amount of variations. Lots of people spelt it in several | :21:52. | :21:58. | |
bizarre ways. Most of them, funnily enough, did get the first three | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
letters. When you put it in the search engine, it will take you | :22:01. | :22:07. | |
straight through and give you an idea. You get so confused. How can | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
anybody find their way here? But plenty do. The streets of Betws | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
Y Coed were flowing with holidaymakers today. Finding many | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
attractions but their internet searches have proved less | :22:15. | :22:25. | |
:22:25. | :22:26. | ||
successful. Here is the list of the various ways people have spelt | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
Betws-y-Coed and it goes on and on. 364 different ways on here but of | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
course, there is only one correct way to spell it. Even though it's | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
half-term holidays, there is no room for slacking. We thought we | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
would have a spelling test to see if they could spell the place | :22:42. | :22:52. | |
:22:52. | :23:26. | ||
You missed out the hyphens but I will forgive that. | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
So while the spelling might confuse many the scenery will certainly | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
leave visitors lost for words. Derek is a regular visitor to | :23:34. | :23:41. | |
Betws-y-Coed. I had to be there over Easter with a few walks. It is | :23:41. | :23:51. | |
:23:51. | :23:56. | ||
Betws-y-Coed is on my weather map this evening. Apparently Betws y | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
Coed means Prayer House in the Wood in English. Now I'm sure some of | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
you are praying that winter is over! Well it isn't! In Betws y | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
Coed today the temperature reached nine Celsius but by Sunday | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
temperatures will have dropped by a few degrees. In fact it's going to | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
turn colder everywhere over the weekend with some rain, frost and | :24:12. | :24:14. | |
sunshine. Tonight mostly cloudy. A little rain or drizzle. Some hill | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
fog as well. Otherwise dry and a mild night. These temperatures are | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
about what we'd expect during the day at this time of year. | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
Tomorrow's chart shows high pressure over the Bay of Biscay | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
keeping Spain and Portugal dry but further north fronts will move in | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
from the Atlantic. So tomorrow morning, the north-east, the border | :24:29. | :24:37. | |
and the southeast may start dry but it won't be dry everywhere. Some | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
light rain and drizzle is likely. Damp in Carmarthen, Aberystwyth and | :24:41. | :24:47. | |
Dolgellau. The cloud sitting on the hills and mountains. So generally | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
cloudy tomorrow. Most of the rain in the north, on the mountains in | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
Snowdonia. Drier in the south and east with spots of light rain and | :24:56. | :25:01. | |
drizzle. Temperatures on the mild side but feeling cooler with a | :25:01. | :25:07. | |
moderate to fresh west to south- westerly wind. In Conwy tomorrow, | :25:07. | :25:15. | |
cloudy and damp at times. Most of the rain on the mountains. Drier on | :25:15. | :25:22. | |
the coast. Temperatures in Abergele rising to 10 Celsius. Tomorrow | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
night cloudy with some patchy rain and drizzle. The wind strengthening | :25:27. | :25:37. | |
:25:37. | :25:39. | ||
as well. Saturday windy and wet for a time. A cold front moves its way | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
south-eastwards. The rain may turn to snow on the mountains before it | :25:43. | :25:45. | |
clears. However, it will dry and brighten-up during the afternoon | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
with a few wintry showers in the north. On Saturday night into | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
Sunday some frost is likely. Sunday chilly. A few wintry showers | :25:51. | :25:59. | |
otherwise dry and clear. Some sunshine and lighter winds. | :25:59. | :26:01. | |
Temperatures are around five Celsius. So turning colder over the | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
weekend. Sunday the best day for a walk but make the most of it. Next | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
week turning milder but wet and windy at times. Our picture tonight | :26:08. | :26:10. | |
