Gale force winds have battered the east for the second time in three | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
days, with gusts of up to 68 miles per hour. Roads were closed and | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
rail services disrupted, fallen cables shattered the window of a | :00:56. | :01:03. | |
train. Cars have been crushed by falling trees and hundreds of | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
people were left without power. In a moment, Kevin Burch, on how | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
prepared we are for the high winds. But first, Mike Liggins reports on | :01:09. | :01:19. | |

This is a back road in a Suffolk village, and this is what is left | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
of postman at Neil Bassett's car. He was on his way to work at 6 | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
o'clock am at this morning when he had a very nasty surprise. I any | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
notice it when I was 10 or 12 ft from the tree. I knew I was going | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
to hit the tree. I sat back, I had my CE bout on, I waited for the car | :01:42. | :01:49. | |
to come to a standstill. -- I had my seatbelt on. In Wellingborough, | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
the branch of a tree fell on this car and somehow, the driver escaped | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
with minor injuries. Roads across the region were blocked by fallen | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
trees. This is at Duxford, one of about 30 similar incidents across | :02:02. | :02:10. | |
Cambridgeshire. This viewer sent us these pictures of the be 1018, she | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
said the tree narrowly missed her house. Tree surgeons and council | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
workers have been busy all day. This tree was hanging dangerously | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
over a road near Redgrave in Suffolk. For students at this high | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
school, the strong winds meant an extra day off. Solar panels being | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
fitted to the roof came loose and smashed through a skylight. Always | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
a difficult decision to close the school, particularly straight after | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
returning from the Christmas holiday. Nevertheless, I have to | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
consider the safety of people on the site first. UK van networks, | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
which serve 3.5 million customers, have had 200 reports reported to | :02:48. | :02:55. | |
them. The company hope most faults will be repaired by tomorrow. Power | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
at a nursing home near Diss went out at 2:30am this morning. They | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
have 29 elderly residents and the cook had used a gas stove, normally | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
used on camping holidays. When you look after the elderly, and they | :03:09. | :03:16. | |
have other problems like dementia, it is never an easy task. But it | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
helps to plan in advance, be organised. For most, the strong | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
winds meant disruption to travel plans. The QE2 bridge in Felixstowe | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
Port were both closed again. For some like the postman, Neil buzzard, | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
it could have been much worse. -- Neil Bassett. | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
On Tuesday - and now, again, today - the gales have caused the same | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
kind of problems. Trees and power lines down and disruption on the | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
roads and the trains. So how prepared are we, when high winds | :03:45. | :03:52. | |
strike? Kevin Burch has this report. As the winds whipped up, the | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
emergency switchboards lit up. In Suffolk, the force operations room | :03:56. | :04:02. | |
at police HQ handled 100 calls about trees down in just four hours. | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
People were rightly phoning 999 because the trees were down and | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
there was a danger, but often a number of people are ringing for | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
the same incident. Our target is to answer all 999 calls within 10 | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
seconds, so we did put pressure on the staff last night, but we coped | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
and we dealt with the incident. is difficult when they hit us last | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
thing at night, first thing in the morning, because it is difficult to | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
work under those conditions, but we prepared as we would expect to do. | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
We have made pretty good progress today. Commuters got hit as well, | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
one passenger ended up with a window in its lap after two | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
sections of Glass Blew In on this first capital connected service | :04:47. | :04:57. | |
Although the weather forecast last night suggested we could be in for | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
an overnight battering, the winds, when they came, appeared to be far | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
worse than many expected. Even now, late in the day, come out to an | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
exposed spot like this, and my word, these winds are still packing a | :05:09. | :05:15. | |
punch. Trees generally don't like to fall | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
over, they grow in such a fashion that they stabilise themselves | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
against prevailing winds. It is only under exceptional | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
circumstances, strong winds, and we have had a lot of rain as well. | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
Sometimes when the rain gets damp, combined with wind, those factors | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
can come together and cause problems. | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
The focus now, not just the hefty branches which have already fallen, | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
but those which might follow suit the next time the gales stripe. | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
-- strike. So we've had a repeat of the gales | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
that hit the region just two days ago. Here's Alex to tell us why. | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
ago. Here's Alex to tell us why. The strong winds were caused by an | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
area of low pressure that formed to the south of Newfoundland. The key | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
thing is the location of this low in relation to an area of high | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
pressure to the south of the UK. The area of low pressure moves | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
steadily eastwards, clipping the north of Scotland and heading | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
towards Scandinavia. You can clearly see the effect, the isobars | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
squeezed together and the tighter they are, the stronger the winds. | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
We are still recording some pretty strong gusts but we are expecting | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
the winds to ease overnight and I will be back later with a full | :06:28. | :06:35. | |
The Duchess of Cambridge has become a Royal Patron for the region's | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
biggest children's hospice charity. East Anglia's Children's Hospices | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
helped nearly 550 families last year across Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
and Cambridgeshire. The Duchess has told staff she intends to be "hands | :06:42. | :06:49. | |
on". The parent and toddler play and | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
music group, in session this morning at the Children's Hospice | :06:52. | :06:59. | |
in Milton. 18 month old Freya, William who is 13 months, and nine- | :06:59. | :07:05. | |
month-old either, are all children with life-threatening conditions. | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
You always think they hospice might be depressing, but it is the | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
complete opposite. It is not aimed above him like a lot of the other | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
groups and he really enjoys the music, he has had a fun time that | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
he has been laughing all morning. And now a royal patron? We are | :07:21. | :07:30. | |
Princess Diana opened the Milton hospice in 1999, at the time only | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
the third in the world. It merged with others to form East Anglia's | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
Children's Hospices. Last year it helped some 550 families. It gets | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
around 30% of funding from the NHS, 70% is from private donations. The | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
Duchess of Cambridge paid a private visit to Malta and in November, she | :07:49. | :07:57. | |
met Grant and Charlotte Clements, a proud parents of this girl whose | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
twin died when she was four years old. -- visit to Milton. She was as | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
charming as you would imagine but also genuinely interested in what | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
our story was. She knew a lot about us already, there had been a lot of | :08:11. | :08:21. | |
:08:21. | :08:23. | ||
questions -- she had a lot of To have a royal patronage is the | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
ultimate. We see this as a great endorsement for the work of | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
children's hospices. We hope that the impact it will have won all | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
children's hospices will be felt across the region, as well as our | :08:35. | :08:41. | |
friends at Cambridge -- it will have on all children's hospices. | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
The Duchess has made it clear she intends to be a hands-on patron, | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
not just a figurehead. Graham Butland is the Chief Executive of | :08:47. | :08:52. | |
East Anglia's Children's Hospices and he joins us now from Cambridge. | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
Talk us through how it came about. We hear that she visited due in | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
November, did you make an initial approach? No, we did not. It came | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
as a complete surprise. A request from her Royal Highness to come and | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
visit us in Cambridge. She spent three to four hours, talking to | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
staff, meeting children and families. And following that visit, | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
I got a phone call, could I make my way to St James's Palace, where I | :09:19. | :09:24. | |
met with members of her Royal Highness's office. And it developed | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
from there. Obviously wonderful news for the charity, she says she | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
wants to be hands-on, what does that mean as a patron? It was made | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
clear she did not just want to be a name on the letterhead, she would | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
be interested in the work that the charity was doing, she would want | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
to pay visits to see different aspects of the work we do, and she | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
would want to contribute to more public events in aid of the charity. | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
What do you think it will mean for the charity in the long term? | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
an honour for us to have such patronage as the Duchess of | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
Cambridge. It will do a lot for staff who work in the organisation. | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
They are proud as punch of what is going on. But most importantly well | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
before the children and families, some of whom you saw in a previous | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
club. For them to know that someone like her Royal Highness is able to | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
support them, and understand what they are going through, I think | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
that will be the biggest outcome that will come from this. And I am | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
sure, a boost for finances as well. It is very difficult in this | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
climate, for all charities, and you start each year with a clean slate | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
and a hill to climb from a fund- raising point of view? Certainly, I | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
think the increased awareness that this will bring, as a colleague in | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
Luton said, for the whole of the children's hospice movement, I | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
think can only be of benefit for children's palliative care across | :10:53. | :11:01. | |
the United Kingdom. Still to come, are more gales on the way? Alex | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
will have the full forecast. And Shaun Peel is in Lowestoft with | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
a lot of gymnasts who all want to go to the Olympics. This is a | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
crucial time for the GB gymnastics team, because next week, they need | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
to qualify for the Olympic Games. They are either well, or they won't. | :11:15. | :11:20. | |
They have decided to base themselves here in Suffolk, in | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
Lowestoft, ahead of the crucial qualifiers. I will be gauging the | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
mood in the cab, after the news from your part of the region. -- in | :11:30. | :11:38. | |
An inquest has heard how a Colchester-based para was killed, | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
moments after finding a bomb factory in Afghanistan. Lance | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
Corporal Kyle Marshall died in an explosion on Valentine's Day last | :11:43. | :11:51. | |
year. The Essex coroner recorded a verdict of unlawful killing. | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
Lance Corporal Kyle Marshall's funeral was held in Colchester. | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
Among the mourners, his fiancee. They were planning to get married | :11:58. | :12:05. | |
when he got home from Afghanistan. But Lance Corporal Marshall was | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
killed on the 14th February, 2011. Valentine's Day. Today, at County | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
Hall in Chelmsford, an inquest was held into his death. The hearing | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
highlighted the extreme danger faced by soldiers on patrol in | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
Helmand Province in Afghanistan. Where much of the fighting has | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
taken place. Among the witnesses today, Captain Matthew Gleave, on | :12:26. | :12:32. | |
the right. Second-in-command of the company to para. He told the | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
hearing that the patrols were going into an unknown area. He said there | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
were indications they were being observed by the enemy. They had | :12:41. | :12:48. | |
already been shot at and one soldier had been hit. This corporal | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
and private explained how the patrol began searching buildings. | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
The coroner or shown a sketch of where Lance Corporal Marshall was | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
killed. The red dot showing where the bomb he detonated was hidden. | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
Lance Corporal Marshall's aunt and uncle were the only family members | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
present. This wing commander from the Ministry of Defence told them | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
that before he was killed, the NFU had found Taliban bomb-making | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
equipment, a significant blow, he said, to the insurgents. The final | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
brave act of a popular young Police are investigating how a | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
pensioner died after a street argument in Essex. 65 year old | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
Valerie Ager was involved in the row between dog owners in Trafalgar | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
Way in Braintree. Shortly afterwards she collapsed in nearby | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
Connaught Gardens and died. Police have released a 39 year old man | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
they'd been questioning. CCTV pictures have been released of | :13:39. | :13:44. | |
two men involved in a big cash robbery in Essex. The pair went to | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
the home of a security driver at Edmunds Tower in Harlow early on | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
Tuesday morning. They threatened to hurt him if he didn't hand over | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
cash that evening in Nazeing. The police in Suffolk have wound up | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
a major rape investigation saying they're taking no more action. | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
Three teenage girls claimed they'd been raped by a group of men in the | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
centre of Ipswich last August. Seven men were arrested, but today | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
the police said the case is closed. Norfolk County Council has found an | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
extra eight and half million pounds to spend. The authority which cut | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
�60 million from its budget last year says it's received more money | :14:17. | :14:26. | |
than it was expecting from the Government. Of all the savings made | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
by local authorities last year, it was those in Norfolk which glad -- | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
grabs the headlines. 1000 people lost their jobs, funding was | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
stopped. This extra money has come from an unexpected government grant | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
to help councils freeze council tax something Norfolk had already | :14:45. | :14:51. | |
budgeted to do. This is one of money to put back into youth | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
services like training, apprenticeships, skills to get | :14:54. | :15:01. | |
people into jobs and give them hope. Some of the money will go on road | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
improvements and more places for children in care. They are more | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
than 1000 in Norfolk and many have to be housed outside counted. The | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
opposition parties say extra spending is welcome but wonder how | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
effective it will be. The support services young people need, the | :15:17. | :15:26. | |
youth services, were decimated last year. It will be difficult with a | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
one-off money payment to go anywhere near recreating that. | :15:31. | :15:36. | |
is a one-off windfall so it doesn't affect the long-term spending plans, | :15:36. | :15:41. | |
the authority is still committed to saving �75 million over the next | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
two years. Ipswich Town's under-fire manager | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
Paul Jewell says he has no intention of resigning. Ipswich | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
have won just two of their last twelve games. He admits he's made | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
mistakes but insists Ipswich can still recover. This weekend, | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
Ipswich take a break from the league for the FA Cup. Town are | :15:58. | :16:08. | |
away to fellow Championship side Hull. There are 20 games left, we | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
are in a fight at the minute and understand that but I am a man and | :16:12. | :16:18. | |
I make mistakes. If you look at my record I have two clubs into the | :16:18. | :16:25. | |
Premiership. Don't thrown to the walls yet! | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
A clearer picture is emerging of what the Sizewell C nuclear power | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
station in Suffolk will look like. Regulators have given interim | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
approval to the type of reactor planned for the site. But opponents | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
say the design is too costly. Sizewell B was the last nuclear | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
power station to be built in Britain. It opened in 1995. Its | :16:44. | :16:50. | |
owner EDF wants to build a new reactor next door. Its preferred | :16:50. | :16:58. | |
design is new technology called their EPR. Is currently being | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
installed in France. The EPR has been given approval for use in the | :17:02. | :17:11. | |
UK. This design is going to be safer, more efficient and larger | :17:11. | :17:19. | |
capacity, 1 1/2 times the capacity. It's a positive step forward. | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
artist's impression gives an idea of what it will look like. It is | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
Hinkley Point in Somerset showing a double Rector, a blueprint of what | :17:28. | :17:35. | |
is planned. EDF plans to build a Hinkley Point first then Sizewell. | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
The cost would be �10 billion creating 20,000 jobs. Critics say | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
there have been problems of the building of EPR elsewhere and a | :17:45. | :17:50. | |
system is costly. Construction could get under way as early as | :17:50. | :18:00. | |

competition here, preparing for next week's qualifier. As for the | :19:05. | :19:11. | |
Games, they are nearly hit, we have been talking about them three years | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
but on New year's Day it became very real. | :19:16. | :19:21. | |
The City of London. For six-and-a- half years we have travelled in | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
hope but when we arrived well the games live up to the greatest | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
expectations? We are finally in the Olympic year and it doesn't focus | :19:30. | :19:36. | |
the mind -- doesn't half focus the mind. People ask if we should | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
hosted in the current environment but the gains have been a major | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
economic and social boost. These are tense times for the athletes. | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
90 are hoping to qualify but with over 200 days to go, only three | :19:51. | :19:57. | |
from the east have been picked so far. Paula Radcliffe will be there, | :19:57. | :20:07. | |
:20:07. | :20:08. | ||
Essex sailor Saskia Clark and Nick Dempsey. It is a once-in-a-lifetime | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
special. There will be a lot of pressure for myself on the other | :20:12. | :20:19. | |
sailors. We can deal with it. of the Olympic events will be in | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
our region, white water canoeing in Hertfordshire and mountain biking | :20:22. | :20:28. | |
in Essex. Dhanjal this grew up there, he is a commentator and says | :20:28. | :20:32. | |
its preview do need mountains to challenge the world's best. There's | :20:32. | :20:41. | |
no way I would think the Olympics would be here. We realistically | :20:41. | :20:46. | |
have a claim. The Olympic torch will be with us in July over eight | :20:46. | :20:53. | |
days, a massive operation, 15 vehicles and a crew of 354 big | :20:53. | :20:58. | |
events in Peterborough, Chelmsford and Cambridge and Luton. Seeing the | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
torch touch and the spirit of the gains in your community will be a | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
powerful milestone between now and the opening ceremony. They are | :21:06. | :21:13. | |
cultural events, the 2012 Festival, the Luton carnival and a doctor who | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
experience committee Ipswich. it was in Manchester, Matt Smith | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
made an appearance which was hugely exciting. If the last six-and-a- | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
half years have gone like a time- lapse, the next will go when the | :21:28. | :21:36. | |
time it takes for Usain Bolt to run from the gun to the gold. Dan | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
Keating and Louis Smith join me. Nervous times for British gymnasts. | :21:40. | :21:46. | |
You have to qualify. We are confident, great preparation, we | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
will be going head-to-head. How did you feel on New year's Day when you | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
thought its 2012? The first thing I thought about was my mum's | :21:55. | :22:03. | |
Christmas dinner! After that I thought 2012. We have shed few | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
pounds and are ready to go. focuses the mind. We sent messages | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
to each other and his heart comprehend the Olympic Games is | :22:12. | :22:19. | |

yourselves. Yeah, it's natural for that happen. We have had great | :22:30. | :22:36. | |
international results. We have to stay level-headed. We have to focus | :22:36. | :22:44. | |
about what we have to do and get in the top 14 spot. He will do it. A | :22:44. | :22:54. | |

thank-you. From here, back to you. Footballers at Luton Town enjoyed a | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
gourmet lunch today thanks to a fan who happens to have been a finalist | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
on Masterchef. Steve Barringer from Bedfordshire narrowly missed out on | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
the Masterchef - the Professionals title last month. He's always | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
supported Luton so the club invited him along to bring a little haute | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
cuisine into the canteen. He is able to stand up to the heat | :23:20. | :23:22. | |
in the kitchen. Stephen has not Hatter work full Luton's answer to | :23:22. | :23:30. | |
Greg Wallace. 10 minutes. I want food on my plate in 10 minutes. | :23:30. | :23:40. | |
When I was on the show I cooked for the 30 chefs. Today is completely | :23:40. | :23:49. | |
different. It's a different task. Are you worried they want ketchup? | :23:49. | :23:57. | |
They once asked for baked beans. shot to fame last month. He has | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
been weighing up offers from restaurants and hotels but could | :24:00. | :24:06. | |
not turn down an offer at his local club. Stressful times cooking in a | :24:06. | :24:14. | |
short space of time. You want to win the competition. I want to win. | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
Every day it was hard work. today's menu, he prepared chicken | :24:19. | :24:26. | |
with sweet potato and spring onions. It soon one collective approval. | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
all fancy ourselves in the kitchen but when you see the level of food | :24:29. | :24:35. | |
they are producing and taste it you are a million miles away. It was | :24:35. | :24:43. | |
fantastic. Really nice food. I have seen him on the telly. The final | :24:43. | :24:53. | |
:24:53. | :25:01. | ||
This fish taste like chicken. Cheeky! The Luton manager, at least | :25:01. | :25:07. | |
didn't say it tasted of rubbish. Time for the weather. Any respite | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
from the wind? It is still windy. Strong winds | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
caused by low pressure. It is moved out towards Scandinavia but you can | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
see isobars in the chart. Still some strong winds to come. If we | :25:22. | :25:28. | |
look back over 24 hours, these are the strongest recorded gusts. Six- | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
day miles an hour in Weybourne. Some locations well above 50 miles | :25:33. | :25:40. | |
an hour. So, this evening and overnight it is still windy, it | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
will gradually ease. A dry night, one or two showers around but they | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
look like they will largely move away. We will be left with clear | :25:49. | :25:55. | |
skies. A chilly night, it was mild last night. It will feel colder | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
tonight. Temperatures dipping down to around two Celsius. The risk of | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
ground frost. The wind comes from a north-westerly direction. Light to | :26:05. | :26:12. | |
moderate in strength by the end of the night. Tomorrow, a ridge of | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
high pressure building in. There is a weak weatherfront which starts to | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
move across the country in the course of the day. Although we | :26:21. | :26:26. | |
start with clear skies and sunshine, it will be chilly to start turning | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
increasingly cloudy through the afternoon. Temperatures will get to | :26:31. | :26:37. | |
around seven Celsius, possibly eight Celsius. The wind is West to | :26:37. | :26:43. | |
north-westerly, generally light and moderate. A much quieter. It should | :26:43. | :26:48. | |
stay mostly dry, the cloud will bring the light and patchy reign by | :26:48. | :26:54. | |
the end of the day. The outlook, Saturday morning early spots of | :26:54. | :26:59. | |
rain and cloud to clear but the bulk of the day looks fine and dry. | :26:59. | :27:04. | |
Sunday, a dry and fine day with a light north-westerly wind. | :27:04. | :27:09. | |
Potentially the chance of clouds developing in the end of the day | :27:09. | :27:15. | |
bringing rain. It is a pretty dry forecast. We're not expecting any | :27:15. | :27:20. | |
wind of that strength for several days. There were too chilly nights, | :27:20. | :27:25. | |
tight particularly, Saturday Night and maybe Monday. As it's been | :27:25. | :27:32. |
