Campaigners say prices are rising three times faster than wages. That

:00:00.:00:00.

is all from Welcome to Wales Today. Our top

:00:00.:00:07.

story: Mobbed by the fans - Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is the new man in

:00:08.:00:10.

charge at Cardiff City. He says he'll be the one picking the

:00:11.:00:13.

players and dismissed suggestions that the owner would meddle in the

:00:14.:00:17.

team's affairs. What assurances did you require to

:00:18.:00:20.

take the job? I had a chat with Mehmet Dalman, met

:00:21.:00:25.

the owner and they have convinced me they want me to be in charge of the

:00:26.:00:27.

football, to take the club forward. Shoring-up defences - high tides and

:00:28.:00:50.

gale force winds are expected and more than 20 flood warnings are in

:00:51.:00:54.

place. Police in Newport are looking for

:00:55.:00:57.

the teenager Nida Ul-Naseer who hasn't been seen since Sunday.

:00:58.:01:01.

The stem-cell research carried out by scientists here - now hopes it

:01:02.:01:04.

could lead to new treatments for heart failure. And restrictions on

:01:05.:01:10.

workers from Bulgaria and Romania are lifted - so what's the impact of

:01:11.:01:20.

immigration on public services here? Good evening.

:01:21.:01:23.

Cardiff City Football Club has a new man at the helm. The former Norway

:01:24.:01:26.

and Manchester United striker Ole Gunner Solskjaer replaces Malky

:01:27.:01:29.

Mackay, who was sacked after an ongoing dispute with the owner

:01:30.:01:32.

Vincent Tan. Claire Summers has been watching the day's developments and

:01:33.:01:35.

she's live at the football ground for us tonight. Claire?

:01:36.:01:45.

Good evening. Cardiff city football club has been in the spotlight for

:01:46.:01:49.

the wrong reasons of late and today an apology for all the agony the

:01:50.:01:53.

fans have been put through. But tonight Cardiff City have their man.

:01:54.:01:57.

The club's chairman said today there was only one name in his mind to

:01:58.:02:01.

replace Malky Mackay and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has agreed a 12-month

:02:02.:02:04.

rolling contract with the Bluebirds. Today he met the players in training

:02:05.:02:08.

before coming here to speak to hold his first press conference. He said

:02:09.:02:14.

the job is a dream come true and stressed he'd be the one picking the

:02:15.:02:23.

players. As a player, he knew all about

:02:24.:02:28.

pressure and today, Ole Gunner Solskjaer looked as composed as

:02:29.:02:32.

ever, travelling in style. He delivered a polished informants as

:02:33.:02:38.

the new Cardiff city manager. Sat next to the chairman who was

:02:39.:02:41.

instrumental in signing his services, he said he was the right

:02:42.:02:47.

man for Cardiff city. I have always dreamt about being a

:02:48.:02:51.

manager in the Premier League. I always said I think I will and now I

:02:52.:02:56.

think it is my chance and challenge. It is up to me to prove I'm up to

:02:57.:02:58.

the level. Who is the man now in charge? He was

:02:59.:03:06.

born in Norway in 1973 and after playing for a number of clubs, he

:03:07.:03:12.

joined Manchester United in 1996 and finished that season as their top

:03:13.:03:15.

league scorer. In 1999 he scored the winning goal in the champions

:03:16.:03:21.

league. He retired from the game in 2007 and became United's reserve

:03:22.:03:31.

team manager. He tasted success, leading a Norwegian side to their

:03:32.:03:36.

first leg with Mark league title. He admitted he had run the move past

:03:37.:03:42.

Sir Alex Ferguson and said reports his boss told him to turn the offer

:03:43.:03:46.

down were nonsense. I have had good contact with the

:03:47.:03:54.

gaffer. He has wished me all the best, given me some good advice, as

:03:55.:04:01.

he always does to you when you work for him, if you are asking for

:04:02.:04:06.

advice. Back in Norway, the move is big

:04:07.:04:11.

news. Journalists have flown out to be in the story back home and many

:04:12.:04:14.

are staying on to see the manager take charge of his first game. They

:04:15.:04:19.

say he is definitely his own man and won't be intimidated by an owner who

:04:20.:04:23.

wants to be involved in team affairs.

:04:24.:04:27.

He is a strong guy and he has his own opinion and he is not moving

:04:28.:04:32.

back. He won't do like the owner says. I think he will handle it but

:04:33.:04:40.

it is a big challenge to the relationship with the owner.

:04:41.:04:47.

With all that has happened, fans are keen for stability. They are hoping

:04:48.:04:51.

the club and its owner will continue to build edges with supporters.

:04:52.:04:55.

Cam hoping the club will have learned lessons from Malky Mackay

:04:56.:05:00.

and will understand they need a proper, adult relationship between

:05:01.:05:04.

the manager and the principal shareholder and the fans are brought

:05:05.:05:07.

into the equation as well, with structured engagement, so they know

:05:08.:05:12.

what we believe and feel. Working together, we can make this club what

:05:13.:05:16.

we wanted to be-a proper premiership team.

:05:17.:05:22.

As the new manager left the ground this afternoon, he was mobbed by

:05:23.:05:25.

fans. He knows his task will be focused on survival but the

:05:26.:05:29.

Norwegian will be given Michigan funds to spend on signings. It is a

:05:30.:05:34.

New Year and there is a new face at Cardiff city, determined to preserve

:05:35.:05:39.

their Premier League status. Well, it seems the man pulling the

:05:40.:05:43.

strings behind the scenes is the Chairman Memett Dalman. He's been

:05:44.:05:45.

instrumental in bringing Solskjaer here. Our football correspondent Rob

:05:46.:05:50.

Phillips caught up with him today and asked what assurances the new

:05:51.:05:53.

manager had sought over the role of club owner Vincent Tan.

:05:54.:06:03.

At the end of the day, there isn't that much of an insurance you can

:06:04.:06:06.

give. Is a chemistry issue and we can talk about what happened in the

:06:07.:06:12.

past some other time but it takes, you know, an integrated platform to

:06:13.:06:17.

make a club work. It is difficult to fix it. Vincent Tan played an

:06:18.:06:23.

instrumental role in bringing Ole Gunner Solskjaer on board. He

:06:24.:06:29.

supported me through that period. When I asked him to fight out he did

:06:30.:06:34.

not without his help, I couldn't have done it. I apologise for the

:06:35.:06:39.

noise and agony we have put the funds through. I sincerely apologise

:06:40.:06:45.

for that. I hope you will forgive us for that and put some trust in us to

:06:46.:06:49.

build his club to what I think it can be built into. I think this club

:06:50.:06:55.

has huge potential but it has to start on the pitch.

:06:56.:07:02.

Have you told Ole Gunner Solskjaer that he needs to stay up this

:07:03.:07:04.

season? He knows that.

:07:05.:07:14.

Plenty more football chat. Radio Wales the place for plenty more

:07:15.:07:17.

football chat. Rob will be in the chair talking all things Cardiff

:07:18.:07:20.

City from 7:00pm tonight. Solskjaer's first game in charge

:07:21.:07:23.

will be against Newcastle in the FA Cup on Saturday. His first home game

:07:24.:07:28.

is a week Saturday against West Ham. He will be hoping for a good start

:07:29.:07:30.

to the New Year. Communities along the Welsh coast

:07:31.:07:33.

are being told this evening to prepare for flooding as strong

:07:34.:07:36.

winds, high tides and large waves are forecast tomorrow. It's a

:07:37.:07:39.

combination that could raise sea levels by more than a metre and risk

:07:40.:07:45.

topping coastal defences. The severe flood warning has been issued for

:07:46.:07:55.

Yarmouth? Barmouth on the Gwynedd Coast in the last half-hour.

:07:56.:08:01.

The wooden flood boards in Pendine's sea wall have already taken a

:08:02.:08:04.

battering in the last few days, so this afternoon the council came out

:08:05.:08:07.

to make sure they were strengthened for the next 24 hours. They know it

:08:08.:08:12.

will be bad, but no-one knows how bad.

:08:13.:08:13.

Anybody's guess. They're talking about a surge of nine metres tonight

:08:14.:08:16.

overnight followed by a similar sort of time on the morning, all

:08:17.:08:20.

depending on the wind depends on how much water will be coming over.

:08:21.:08:27.

High tide this morning saw the River Towy in Carmarthen burst its banks,

:08:28.:08:31.

but with the winds picking up it is tomorrow morning's high tide just

:08:32.:08:34.

after 7:00am that is predicted to push river levels the farthest. The

:08:35.:08:39.

council called an emergency meeting this afternoon to prepare for the

:08:40.:08:44.

worst. The start to 2014 follows a far wetter December than normal,

:08:45.:08:47.

with parts of Wales experiencing much more rainfall than usual.

:08:48.:08:53.

Natural Resources Wales say this latest threat extends along the

:08:54.:08:56.

entire Welsh coastline, and could prove the highest tide Wales has

:08:57.:09:06.

experienced since 1997. The high tide and the storm surge

:09:07.:09:10.

will affect the coastline along the whole of Wales but we are concerned

:09:11.:09:15.

from areas from Kendal Bay down think the estuary, which were

:09:16.:09:19.

affected a few weeks ago. We are also worried about Carmarthen Bay,

:09:20.:09:24.

Haverfordwest and areas of Newport. Authorities are warning people to

:09:25.:09:27.

stay away from the coast as the west prepares for gale force winds of up

:09:28.:09:31.

to 80 miles per hour. The storm producing surges at a period of

:09:32.:09:34.

already high tides which could result in treacherous conditions.

:09:35.:09:37.

Councils know this will be the biggest test they have faced for

:09:38.:09:46.

some time. A bit more detail on that severe

:09:47.:09:51.

flood warning just issued for Barmouth is for high tide tomorrow

:09:52.:09:59.

morning at 9am. A large storm surge likely to cause widespread property

:10:00.:10:02.

flooding, according to Natural Resources Wales. The tide Neville is

:10:03.:10:06.

expected to be four metres higher than normal.

:10:07.:10:10.

Police have stepped up their search for a missing 18-year-old woman in

:10:11.:10:14.

Newport. Nida Ul-Naseer hasn't been seen or contacted any friends or

:10:15.:10:17.

family since the 28th December. Kate Morgan is in our newsroom this

:10:18.:10:20.

evening. Kate, there's growing concern isn't there.

:10:21.:10:26.

That's right. And police and the family of Nida Ul-Naseer faith they

:10:27.:10:30.

are increasingly worried for her welfare. The 18-year-old took out

:10:31.:10:36.

the pins from their home in Newport on Saturday at around age PM. She

:10:37.:10:41.

hasn't been seen since. She is five foot three, described as slim as

:10:42.:10:46.

what -- and was wearing a black T-shirt and jeans. Police say they

:10:47.:10:52.

are concerned about her welfare because without her medication, she

:10:53.:10:56.

will become anaemic. The concern is best sums up by a sign on the front

:10:57.:11:03.

of their home. Today police increased their surge

:11:04.:11:07.

in Newport. At the moment it is focusing around

:11:08.:11:12.

the area of the home, which is in the Docklands area of Newport. This

:11:13.:11:17.

is a large-scale operation with around 40 officers with sniffer

:11:18.:11:22.

dogs. Us today police searched the open spaces surrounding the home.

:11:23.:11:27.

Today they have knocked door-to-door to try and get more information as

:11:28.:11:32.

well as looking on an industrial estate nearby. At the moment there

:11:33.:11:37.

is no evidence to suggest the 18-year-old was taken. These want

:11:38.:11:40.

more information so if anyone knows anything, they want them to get in

:11:41.:11:48.

touch. Getting on the property ladder isn't

:11:49.:11:51.

easy but from today, new financial help is being made available for

:11:52.:12:00.

those looking to buy new-build homes in Wales. In many cases though a

:12:01.:12:18.

hefty deposit is needed to get you on the ladder. Now anyone looking to

:12:19.:12:22.

buy a newly built house can get financial support from the Welsh

:12:23.:12:25.

Government and its Help to Buy Wales scheme. Lee Harris is looking for

:12:26.:12:28.

his first home but was unaware of the offer available...

:12:29.:12:31.

I have just come down. There is quite a lot of new-build houses

:12:32.:12:34.

being built here and I thought I would have a look. I didn't know

:12:35.:12:37.

much about it but I will look into it when I get back. If I can get

:12:38.:12:43.

help, I will look up how to take up the offer.

:12:44.:12:46.

This is how the scheme will work. Someone who wants to buy a new build

:12:47.:12:49.

property, up to the value of ?300,000, will need to have a 5%

:12:50.:12:53.

deposit. They can then apply for a loan of up to 20% of the value of

:12:54.:12:58.

the house. After that they need to get a mortgage to cover the

:12:59.:13:01.

remaining balance. Then there's the UK government's mortgage guarantee

:13:02.:13:04.

scheme - also called Help to Buy - where you can buy a home - new or

:13:05.:13:12.

old - again with just a 5% deposit. We have balanced our scheme here in

:13:13.:13:16.

Wales, looking at the market conditions. We think there are

:13:17.:13:22.

enough checks to make sure that people can afford to get into the

:13:23.:13:26.

market. That is why the scheme is being welcomed by many.

:13:27.:13:29.

The ?170 million project should make banks and building societies more

:13:30.:13:33.

willing to lend. Over time that should boost demand for new build

:13:34.:13:36.

properties and kick start more construction projects. Around 100

:13:37.:13:41.

homes have been bought on this development in Newport but there are

:13:42.:13:44.

now plans for 4,000 so people can benefit from the scheme. But some

:13:45.:13:49.

parts of Wales will miss out - the largest house builder here Persimmon

:13:50.:13:53.

says it won't develop in the south Wales valleys because of low selling

:13:54.:13:58.

prices. Help to buy the have an impact on

:13:59.:14:04.

what we do in the South Wales valleys but it doesn't change the

:14:05.:14:08.

dynamic and it is still not viable to develop in the valleys. For a

:14:09.:14:14.

variety of reasons. It is a step in the right direction and it is good

:14:15.:14:15.

news. Good news for some - but there are

:14:16.:14:19.

concerns that it could lead to inflated house prices and another

:14:20.:14:22.

unsustainable bubble in the housing market. For buyers, it is a step

:14:23.:14:29.

closer to getting on the property ladder.

:14:30.:14:31.

A group of scientists in Wales are on the brink of being able to

:14:32.:14:34.

regenerate damaged heart tissue. Through experimenting with stem

:14:35.:14:37.

cells at their labs in Cardiff and Swansea universities, the company

:14:38.:14:40.

behind the research hopes to develop new treatments for heart failure

:14:41.:14:43.

over the next few years. One of those involved in the project is

:14:44.:14:45.

former first minister Rhodri Morgan the chance to take a closer look at

:14:46.:14:59.

research work that could help millions of people with heart

:15:00.:15:02.

conditions. This former first Minister is among them.

:15:03.:15:10.

Welcome to Wales Today. The first Minister Rhodri Morgan has undergone

:15:11.:15:15.

an operation on his heart... On the 8th of July 2007, just weeks

:15:16.:15:20.

after a gruelling Assembly election campaign, Rhodri Morgan suffered a

:15:21.:15:26.

heart attack. In your heart of hearts, you know

:15:27.:15:31.

this is that big heart attack. It is scary. Probably worse for the family

:15:32.:15:34.

than yourself. What they are all going through. On top of that there

:15:35.:15:39.

was the political scenario-what will happen if he pops his clogs when

:15:40.:15:45.

this coalition agreement has been signed? The cardiologist said to me,

:15:46.:15:48.

take a complete rest while you get over this. You haven't got anything

:15:49.:15:53.

big on your plate, have you? I said I've got to form a government!

:15:54.:15:58.

Rhodri Morgan made a full recovery and the attack left no permanent

:15:59.:16:04.

damage to his heart. The experience has led him to join the board of a

:16:05.:16:07.

new research team, trying to help find a cure for heart failure. In

:16:08.:16:14.

their labs in Cardiff and Swansea, they are experimenting with stem

:16:15.:16:17.

cells, trying to regenerate damaged heart tissue.

:16:18.:16:22.

We have identified a potent type of stem cell, which is hard specific.

:16:23.:16:27.

What our therapy does is produce more of those so you can have a

:16:28.:16:31.

large number to regenerate the part of the damaged heart.

:16:32.:16:36.

If we can bring this off, it will represent the potential for a cure

:16:37.:16:39.

for people with heart disease. That is a potential advantage but the

:16:40.:16:44.

fact it would have a Welsh label on it would be tremendous for Wales.

:16:45.:16:51.

The initial clinical trials have been successful and they hope to

:16:52.:16:53.

produce treatments over the next five years - good news for an

:16:54.:16:57.

estimated 30 million people suffering from heart failure

:16:58.:16:59.

worldwide. You're watching Wales Today. Stay

:17:00.:17:02.

with us - plenty still ahead. This is coming our way - gale force

:17:03.:17:06.

winds combined with high tides could cause misery for people living on

:17:07.:17:09.

the coast. Benhaz will be here with the forecast.

:17:10.:17:14.

The Welsh Rugby Union is to present the four regions with a new legal

:17:15.:17:19.

contract to govern how the professional game in Wales is run.

:17:20.:17:23.

The regions refused to renew the current deal on New Year's Eve,

:17:24.:17:26.

plunging the sport into crisis. The WRU board has been meeting today for

:17:27.:17:30.

the first time in 2014. Gareth Lewis reports.

:17:31.:17:37.

The union will present the regions with a copy of the proposed new

:17:38.:17:41.

agreement on Monday. The regions will then have a fair and reasonable

:17:42.:17:48.

amount of time to examine it. The hope is for a solution before the

:17:49.:17:53.

end of the month. J's meeting is the latest milestone. On New Year's Eve,

:17:54.:17:59.

the regions turned down an agreement. They want a new European

:18:00.:18:04.

cup, worth an extra ?1 million each to them. They have given the WRU and

:18:05.:18:11.

end of month deadline. I think it's important that we

:18:12.:18:16.

continue under the offices of the washroom union and the proposal we

:18:17.:18:19.

have put forward with the English, they proposed some time ago now. It

:18:20.:18:26.

ensures we play rugby with the Irish and Scottish in a new European

:18:27.:18:31.

competition. It also ensures the funding we receive is higher.

:18:32.:18:36.

Central contracts for star players or setting up brand-new teams are

:18:37.:18:40.

options open to the union but the recent regional solidarity could be

:18:41.:18:46.

tested by an option under consideration. A new deal Casino

:18:47.:18:50.

money given to teams who produce more Wales players and less to those

:18:51.:18:54.

who use fewer. At the moment roughly ?6 million is clicked equally

:18:55.:18:59.

between the regions for international player release. The

:19:00.:19:03.

last time Wales played against Australia in the autumn, the ospreys

:19:04.:19:07.

and Scarlets provided seven each, blues five and the dragon is one of

:19:08.:19:13.

the 23 man squad. Add equal split of money has been a bugbear for some of

:19:14.:19:16.

the regions. Could a cash reward for their efforts was the national side

:19:17.:19:23.

cause one or more to break ranks? The Millennium Stadium is a reminder

:19:24.:19:28.

of previous club versus union bar. The after-effects of this one could

:19:29.:19:32.

be just as long-lasting and as a solution can be found.

:19:33.:19:42.

It's been a day since Romanians and Bulgarians have had the right to

:19:43.:19:46.

work freely in Wales. The fear that thousands were about to flood our

:19:47.:19:49.

borders appears to have been unfounded. But what impact could any

:19:50.:19:52.

rise in the number of migrants have on our schools, hospitals and local

:19:53.:19:55.

services? Jordan Davies has been looking at how we currently cope

:19:56.:19:59.

with migrants - and what impact more may have?

:20:00.:20:06.

Dancing at a primary school and a starring role for Damian from

:20:07.:20:12.

Poland. A quarter of this school don't speak first language English.

:20:13.:20:16.

There are 18 languages spoken in this hall.

:20:17.:20:22.

Jacob came to Newport from Poland a year ago.

:20:23.:20:26.

If I don't know any science, they would help me with science.

:20:27.:20:33.

He is one of 31,000 children in Wales who get help from counsel

:20:34.:20:37.

provided assistance to improve their language skills and demand for their

:20:38.:20:42.

services is expected to grow. There is a growing need. We have a

:20:43.:20:47.

range of people coming from different backgrounds so the service

:20:48.:20:50.

is looking to support those learners as the need increases.

:20:51.:20:56.

At ask market, local is the name of the game. What about Romanian

:20:57.:21:03.

produce? Our people from both countries have the right to live and

:21:04.:21:05.

work here. What do the locals think?

:21:06.:21:11.

If they have jobs to come through I've not got an objection to that

:21:12.:21:15.

but if they are coming over to use our social services, I think that is

:21:16.:21:20.

a very bad idea. EU migrants have to wait three

:21:21.:21:23.

months before they can claim out of work benefits but that doesn't go

:21:24.:21:27.

far enough for one Welsh MP. Houses have to be built, roads have

:21:28.:21:35.

to be built and workplaces and so. I think unfortunately, we live in a

:21:36.:21:38.

small country and we are full at the moment. There is no more room for

:21:39.:21:42.

large numbers of extra people to come in.

:21:43.:21:46.

But how many EU migrants do we have you? Census figures shows Wales has

:21:47.:21:53.

an average of 2% of the UK share with EU migrants making up less than

:21:54.:21:58.

1% of the people living in Torfaen and Neath Port Talbot. The highest

:21:59.:22:03.

is in Cardiff and Wrexham at around 3.5%. Of the 150,000 Romanians and

:22:04.:22:10.

Bulgarians already living in the UK, 4000 work in the NHS. How could more

:22:11.:22:17.

migrants effects the health service in Wales?

:22:18.:22:19.

A lot of the overseas immigration that has come in in the professional

:22:20.:22:25.

sense has been in effect to the NHS. We have relied on overseas trained

:22:26.:22:30.

doctors and nurses. We had recruitment campaigns in Europe and

:22:31.:22:32.

the Philippines. What of housing in Wales? Recent

:22:33.:22:37.

research suggests migrants are less likely to work with Mac live in

:22:38.:22:42.

social housing than people in Britain. The biggest impact is in

:22:43.:22:48.

the private rental sector in inner-city or urban areas. Yet

:22:49.:22:53.

everyone's talents are celebrated, no matter how diverse. Nobody truly

:22:54.:22:59.

knows how many Romanians or Gary and is -- or Bulgarians may choose to

:23:00.:23:05.

come to Wales or if they do, whether they will stay.

:23:06.:23:07.

Campaigners for a new memorial to all those from Wales who took part

:23:08.:23:11.

in the First World War say they're on target for its official unveiling

:23:12.:23:14.

later this year. That event near Flanders will be one of many on the

:23:15.:23:18.

Western Front in Belgium and France - as well as here in Wales - to mark

:23:19.:23:22.

the centenary of the start of the conflict. Here's Roger Pinney.

:23:23.:23:29.

The red Dragon looks at proudly at the Mets would. This is the place

:23:30.:23:35.

they called death Valley. In July 1916, at the height of the Battle of

:23:36.:23:39.

the Somme, the Welsh division fought here and the losses were

:23:40.:23:44.

unthinkable- 4000 men were killed or we did not the slaughter was to burn

:23:45.:23:49.

a place into his three but that was just one battle in a war that was to

:23:50.:23:54.

last for years. Four years which changed Wales culturally, socially

:23:55.:23:59.

but in a material way as well. Look at the names on war memorials in

:24:00.:24:03.

every city, town and village in Wales. These images only hint at the

:24:04.:24:11.

horror. This year 's commemorations here in Wales but also on the

:24:12.:24:17.

battlefields in France and Belgium will aim to do more. Organisers want

:24:18.:24:22.

to honour those who took part and educate today's generation. In

:24:23.:24:31.

Flanders, remembrance is a daily act to those who have no known grave.

:24:32.:24:37.

Not far away a new Welsh memorial is being erected. The war cemeteries

:24:38.:24:43.

stand testament to Welsh casualties in the battle of Passchendaele.

:24:44.:24:47.

Across Wales, thousands have contributed to the memorial appeal

:24:48.:24:53.

and hundreds are expected to attend its official unveiling.

:24:54.:24:59.

Every generation, the nations who took part in the battles worldwide,

:25:00.:25:03.

each has a fitting memorial and gathering place in Flanders, except

:25:04.:25:08.

the Welsh. This is going to be rectified.

:25:09.:25:13.

In Flanders and on the Somme there will be official events through the

:25:14.:25:18.

year but many will make private pilgrimages. For some it will be

:25:19.:25:22.

remembrance of a family member that others will go simply as interested

:25:23.:25:26.

jurists. All will be moved by the sacrifice. People are braced for

:25:27.:25:29.

more bad weather. Behnaz is here with the details.

:25:30.:25:35.

We are in wild weather tonight and tomorrow. There is one severe flood

:25:36.:25:43.

warnings in place at the moment. 34 flood warnings across the rest of

:25:44.:25:47.

way. If that wasn't enough, we have a yellow warning for the wind.

:25:48.:25:51.

Through this evening we have the brains spilling eastwards. It

:25:52.:25:55.

doesn't need much because the ground is already pretty saturated. It will

:25:56.:26:00.

tear through towards midnight and behind it showers followed.

:26:01.:26:06.

Temperatures getting down to five Celsius and the winds pick up into

:26:07.:26:10.

the overnight period. All associated with this low pressure, bringing

:26:11.:26:13.

strong winds. Here is tomorrow morning. The strong south westerly

:26:14.:26:21.

winds with gusts of 70-80 mph. And we have high tides so there is the

:26:22.:26:26.

potential of coastal flooding. This is the time of high water tomorrow.

:26:27.:26:37.

Eight 50 6am in Aberystwyth. -- 8:50 in Aberystwyth. If you are

:26:38.:26:42.

concerned, call the flood line. Tomorrow evening the flood will have

:26:43.:26:47.

cleared and the strong winds will ease into the early hour period.

:26:48.:26:51.

Those shadows could be wintry on high ground. Temperatures getting

:26:52.:26:57.

down to three Celsius so a touch cold than tonight. Saturday morning

:26:58.:27:03.

we get a brief rape from the wind. It will brighten up. Make the most

:27:04.:27:08.

of it if you have to head out and about us by the time we reach

:27:09.:27:13.

Sunday, or in the way of strong winds and wet conditions heading our

:27:14.:27:19.

way. Severe gales for Sunday and a lot of rain. By Sunday, there is

:27:20.:27:23.

certainly the risk of some localised flooding. Over the next few days

:27:24.:27:27.

we've got more gales, further heavy rain and flooding is likely. Pack to

:27:28.:27:32.

you. Some more details for the flood

:27:33.:27:36.

warnings for high tide tomorrow. One severe flood warning in place for

:27:37.:27:41.

Barmouth on the Gwynedd Coast. 37 flood warnings almost all along the

:27:42.:27:47.

coast, with Ely test -- the latest issued for Penarth, one bridge,

:27:48.:27:53.

Barry and Aberthaw. More on our website. We will be back at 6am in

:27:54.:28:01.

breakfast. And I'll be back after the BBC News at 10:00pm. That's

:28:02.:28:03.
