heavy rain is causing more misery as flood waters are on the rise.

:00:00.:00:24.

Hello, I'm Alex Dunlop. The Government has announced that

:00:25.:00:28.

victims of the tidal surge on the East Coast will be entitled to

:00:29.:00:30.

compensation just like householders on the Somerset Levels and the

:00:31.:00:33.

Thames Valley. Yesterday, David Cameron promised up to ?5,000 to

:00:34.:00:37.

help flood victims. Today, it emerged the money will be backdated

:00:38.:00:39.

to include the whole winter. Crucially, that means that people

:00:40.:00:42.

who were flooded during the tidal surge in December should qualify.

:00:43.:00:49.

They are still clearing up here. All these properties were flooded during

:00:50.:00:57.

the storm surge. This shop succumbed to the floods. From its owner today,

:00:58.:01:06.

a cautious welcome. I think it is a good idea, if it works as suggested.

:01:07.:01:10.

Perhaps the small print will spoil it. The Prime Minister visited his

:01:11.:01:17.

shop in December. Since then, he has had to look at our lot more flood

:01:18.:01:23.

damage. I expect we will see more extreme weather events. Today, he

:01:24.:01:28.

promised extra help for those affected. Anyone whose property was

:01:29.:01:35.

flooded in this storm surge will be able to

:01:36.:06:29.

All the day that Beyonce headline the festival. She pleaded not

:06:30.:06:40.

guilty. Gareth areas accused of harassing the same man. There is a

:06:41.:06:43.

third defendant, a 38`year`old woman from Manchester. She was also

:06:44.:06:49.

accused of harassment. She failed to appear at this morning and a warrant

:06:50.:06:55.

was issued for her arrest. Tulisa and Gareth very were released.

:06:56.:07:01.

Photographers were waiting outside court. She will be back here at

:07:02.:07:12.

Cheltenham magistrates court to face trial.

:07:13.:07:18.

Ail maintenance firm in Colchester has teamed up with the town's

:07:19.:07:21.

Institute to recruit unemployed young people to become apprentices.

:07:22.:07:24.

At least ten have now been offered jobs. And the firm, TES 2000, says

:07:25.:07:28.

it's now planning to take on 40 apprentices a year. Network Rail's

:07:29.:07:36.

control periods/ significant investment and upgrade of the

:07:37.:07:40.

existing network for the UK to cope with demand from passengers and

:07:41.:07:46.

freight users. Huge projects such as HS2 and Crossrail, demands are

:07:47.:07:50.

massive so we are actually growing our workforce for the future.

:07:51.:08:00.

Now, the weather. We have more showers overnight, some

:08:01.:08:04.

could be wintry. We still have gusts of 40 or 50 mph. Temperatures will

:08:05.:08:10.

fall to freezing. We can't rule out some ice and frost. Tomorrow,

:08:11.:08:15.

further showers from the West with some sleet and hail mixed end but a

:08:16.:08:19.

largely dry day with sunshine for many others. Temperatures only up to

:08:20.:08:27.

about six Celsius. A blustery south`westerly wind but not as

:08:28.:08:31.

strong as today. Some showers in the afternoon but largely dry. Some

:08:32.:08:37.

clear spells overnight so I think frost and ice tomorrow night are

:08:38.:08:42.

much more widespread. For Friday, a yellow warning from The Met office

:08:43.:08:49.

draw heavy rain. 5`10 millimetres or higher in some places. In a moment,

:08:50.:08:54.

the National forecast but I leave you with Outlook. As rain pulls away

:08:55.:09:01.

on Friday, the winds will pick up. Gusts of

:09:02.:09:08.

Good evening. What an incredible day of weather it has been. We saw gusts

:09:09.:09:15.

of wind up to 108 mph in the West of Wales. The wind is easing down a

:09:16.:09:20.

notch or two but we still have a high-level amber warning from the

:09:21.:09:23.

Met Office for the strength of the wind over the next few hours over

:09:24.:09:28.

quite a large swathe of the UK. Northern Ireland, northern England

:09:29.:09:31.

and down across Wales, there is still potential for damaging and

:09:32.:09:36.

disruptive gusts of wind. This huge curl of cloud is bringing wet and

:09:37.:09:39.

windy weather across much of the West of Europe. It curls back across

:09:40.:09:43.

the north of the UK and that's the centre of the area of low pressure

:09:44.:09:47.

with the strongest winds just to the south of that. Let's focus on the

:09:48.:09:51.

winds over the next few hours. The ease down by a notch or two but

:09:52.:09:55.

still blustery conditions over most of Wales. High seas around the coast

:09:56.:10:03.

and gusting up to 70 mph. Easily around the 80 mph mark across much

:10:04.:10:08.

of northern England. Across the Pennines this evening and overnight,

:10:09.:10:13.

travelling will be treacherous. Wind and rain at lower levels will

:10:14.:10:14.

produce a lot of spray. You don't produce a lot of spray. You don t

:10:15.:10:18.

have to go to high up the Pennines to see that turned to snow. One way

:10:19.:10:23.

or another, further disruption to travel is more than likely. BBC

local radio will keep you up-to date local radio will keep you up-to-date

:10:27.:10:29.

on where you are and where you are trying to get to. The centre of the

:10:30.:10:35.

low system moves northwards. Pretty heavy snow developing across the

:10:36.:10:38.

hills of Scotland with several centimetres by dawn. A bit of snow

:10:39.:10:42.

for Northern Ireland and wintry showers drifting across the southern

:10:43.:10:46.

counties. A risk of ice with most races are seeing the temperatures a

:10:47.:10:49.

degree or so either side of freezing. A cold, windy start

:10:50.:10:54.

Thursday but I think it be a better day. No persistent rain to be seen.

:10:55.:10:59.

There should be some spells of sunshine for many of us, as well.

:11:00.:11:04.

Does it last until the end of the week? I'm afraid not. It goes

:11:05.:11:08.

downhill on Friday. This low pressure will head our way. Lots of

:11:09.:11:13.

isobars on the chart later in the day. Gusts of 60, 70 or 80 mph, with

:11:14.:11:20.

rain spreading northwards. Significant snow for parts of

:11:21.:11:22.

Northern Ireland and southern Scotland. Windy into the start of

:11:23.:11:25.

the weekend. Saturday has outbreaks of rain. On Sunday, something of a

:11:26.:11:31.

respite. The winds will ease down and it should
