Lifeguards say the winter storms may direction.

Lifeguards say the winter storms may have made the region's beach is more

dangerous. Extreme weather may have shifted Sands, changing hazardous

riptides and undercurrents will stop the warning came as the RNLI

lifeguard started their first patrol of the season. Back in December, the

Norfolk coast was battered by mother nature.

Today in Cromer, hard to believe, it ever happened. Many of these walls

were very badly damaged in the storms. Railings like these

literally ripped away by the force of the sea, but while most of those

have now been repaired, it's not so easy to fix a beach. There are Expos

structures, areas that used to be sandy, which may now be rocky, and

there may be sharp flints, and what this does is, where previously there

may have been a current which was quite predictable, it may have

moved, which could pose a danger. The RNLI lifeguards are

well`prepared for the new season. Last year Norbert, 80 lives were

saved, and 54 people rescued. Almost 1000 incidents in all. It is usually

little rip currents, which are where water channels out quicker. Small

swimmers can lose their 14 and start panicking, and that is when you have

two go in and get them. The message is stay safe this summer. Always

swim between red and yellow flags, and be aware that the beach you know

may not be what it was. A second person has died after a

three car accident in Norfolk. It happened yesterday. The first

fatality was a woman in her 70s. A man in his 80s has also died, and

two others were injured. Both tunnels of the Dartford Crossing

will be closed to night from ten o'clock till four o'clock, for a

training exercise to test how the Essex emergency services would

tackle a fire. In football, Peterborough United's

play`off semifinal at Leyton Orient ended 1`1.

Posh went ahead 15 minutes in, but Moses at the bio equalise, to give

the draw. All back to theirs for the decider now on Tuesday night.

Southend are also seeking promotion via the play`offs.

The first leg of their latest and final against hurting kicks off at

midday tomorrow. Norwich face Arsenal tomorrow, with the seemingly

impossible task of getting a landslide victory to avoid

relegation. Although premiership survival would

be something of a miracle, their boss says they still have something

to play for. There is a lot of money at stake for positional placings in

the Premier league, and for me, there are 27,000 reasons at stake,

and that is the amount of people on the ground on Sunday. Those people

deserve a good performance. In cycling, Laura Trott was back on a

bike today after a bad crashed yesterday in the women's Tour of

Britain. This was a getting treatment before

it eventually going to Clacton hospital with concussion and a

suspected chipped elbow. Today she took part in the heart stage. ``

Hertfordshire stage. Tomorrow, thousands are expected to watch the

final stage. They will finish in Angel Hill at

around one o'clock. And now, the weather.

around one o'clock. And now, the Good evening. After a rather

blustery day, that is set to continue into tonight. Showers will

continue to roll through at quite a pace. They are blown through by a

strong south`westerly breeze. I'm afraid tomorrow, we will see more of

the same, rather heavy, blustery showers. That strong south`westerly

breeze continues, so despite them being heavy, the showers will not

last long. They will blow through fairly quickly. Then be surprised to

hear a rumble or two of thunder. By the time we get to the afternoon,

maybe a little bit of respite. Some areas drying out, perhaps even a

little bit of sunshine. Temperatures tomorrow feeling a little bit

fresher, a maximum of 12 or 13 Celsius. As we head into next week,

the unsettled feeling continues, but past Wednesday, it will start to

settle down. And finally, a church tower made of cardboard was built in

Norwich 's afternoon. 1000 box bricks were lashed together

with more than eight miles of tape. It is a cardboard copy of the local

church, all done to mark the start of the Norfolk and Norwich festival.

That is it. We're back at 645, and later at 1015. Until then, have a

good night goodbye. Good evening. We have seen plenty of

showers scattered across the country today. There will be drier and

brighter spells in between. Low pressure is sitting across the

country, with some tightly packed isobars to the south. That indicates

some strong winds. They will continue throughout the night, going

up to gale force at times. The main focus of the wettest weather across

parts of West Wales is this rain. It will not be a particularly cold

start to Sunday. Showers, not everywhere, some of us will see

drier weather weather window of sunshine around, but be prepared for

those showers if you're stepping out in the morning. Throughout the day

on Sunday, a bit of an improvement across parts of south-west England
