with a full weather update, including an improving forecast for | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
bank holiday Monday. In sport, most of football teams are | :00:43. | :00:49. | |
trying to improve on a slow start to the season. | :00:50. | :00:51. | |

There's good news for our tourism industry ahead of the last bank | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
Figures released today show that the number of overseas visitors to the | :01:04. | :01:08. | |
The statistics for summer 2013 from the organisation Visit Britain | :01:09. | :01:15. | |
show that our region is most visited by | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
And it seems that this summdr is also proving to be a good one for | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
Adrian Pitches joins us now from Northumberland. | :01:25. | :01:35. | |
Yes, Harry Potter fans will not need any clues. This is of coursd Alnwick | :01:36. | :01:45. | |
Castle, where the first two Harry Potter films were filmed. It helped | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
generate that huge surge in North East tourism. We did better than | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
Wales, Scotland and the North West, and even came close to London's | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
summer tourism figures last year. This is what I found out earlier | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
today. With a wave of his magic wand, Harry | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
Potter put Alnwick Castle b`ck on the global tourist map. Grab it now! | :02:14. | :02:21. | |
It is a very nice place and I have visited the film of Harry Potter and | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
so I go on the tour, come hdre. Have you had a nice day today? Yds, we | :02:29. | :02:38. | |
have had a nice day today. We are on our way to Scotland so we thought | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
it's a nice stop here and wd weren't impressed. `` we were impressed But | :02:42. | :02:49. | |
the historic film set is not the only draw. Live music and | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
Premiership football are also mentioned by foreign tourists. Last | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
year, overseas visits went tp 2 %, foreign tourist spending ?26 million | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
on the North East in the sulmer months. Interestingly, half the | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
tourists were quite young, `nd many have come a very long way. They re | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
coming from Australia, New Zealand, America, the Far East, Asia. Two | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
Chinese ladies stayed last night. You have just mist them. Thdy have | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
gone off to Alnwick Castle `nd Garden this morning. Quite ` lot of | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
European visitors. German and Dutch. There are ferries at Newcastle so it | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
is easy for them to come ovdr. And there are British tourists, too I | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
like the combination of the wide open spaces, the castles, B`mburgh | :03:40. | :03:50. | |
we like as well, beautiful places. Great beaches as well. Lovely, clean | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
beaches to have a walk along. But don't forget Cumbria. This cafe near | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
Penrith is sharing in the L`keland tourism boom. We get a lot of people | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
from Dubai, China seems to be a big market for ourselves, we have two | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
lots of families in from Australia this week. Next week people from | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
Shanghai. So forget that gloomy bank holiday weather forecast. Pdople are | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
travelling from the other shde of the world to share our heritage this | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
summer. Yorkshire had a pretty good summer | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
last year, too. This summer has not been bad with a certain bikd race | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
through North Yorkshire and beyond. But it has not been all good news. | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
It is no surprise the city of York proves the biggest draw for foreign | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
visitors, but last year, nulbers choosing to flock here for hts mix | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
of history and culture sort of major and rather lucrative. The trend | :04:47. | :04:54. | |
hoteliers have been closely. We seem to have seen Americans starting to | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
come back now and Europeans, a lot more Italians and French people | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
staying out. Do you think the Tour had an impact? At the time ht had a | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
very big impact. Two or thrde days after the event we had a Frdnch | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
family who had seen us on tdlevision and decided to visit. 12 months ago, | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
all this was just talk, but talk was enough to kick`start the world's | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
interest in Yorkshire, not just its heritage but its countrysidd. But | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
2013 was not all good news. Although the number of foreign visitors did | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
rise, it was offset by a fall in domestic tourism. It is one of the | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
reasons places like Helmslex scored outside the box. A festival this | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
weekend is a prime example. Attractions like the walled garden | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
and other businesses linked up to help each other prosper. And it has | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
been working. Profits at thhs town centre chip shop are up 15% on last | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
year. Many of those dining `re British. It is not about just | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
individual business any mord. It is about the town and how we c`n | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
promote ourselves as a vibr`nt attraction within North Yorkshire | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
and within the country. And that is the key. Last year's becausd set the | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
stage for 2014, which we expect to be through the roof. But wh`t about | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
next year's? What about the places that mist out? There is not a short | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
answer to that. We have to keep our customer service high and kdep | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
investing in businesses. We need to make sure that the new race, the | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
Tour of Yorkshire, that people capitalise that and that people will | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
go to parts of Yorkshire whdre the Tour De France did not go. | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
Back here in the North East, we can expect a continuing surge of tourism | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
because the North East won that Facebook photo at Heathrow @irport | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
and will get ?1 million of advertising starting in September. | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
Pictures of the North East will be beamed across all terminals incoming | :06:56. | :07:08. | |
visitors. `` to incoming visitors. Emergency services were called out | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
this morning to help a sailor whose yacht exploded in the sea off | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
Hartlepool. The French sailor alerted the lifeguard beford he | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
launched his life craft. A helicopter and lifeboats cale to use | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
aid. He was winched to safety unhurt. His yacht sank. | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
Paul Gascoigne is pictured on the front page of several newsp`pers | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
today been put into an ambulance after reportedly been found slumped | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
outside his home. The former England and Newcastle player has a long | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
history of problems with alcohol and yesterday the 47`year`old is said to | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
have been taken away by emergency services from his home in Dorset. | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
His agent has declined to comment. She travelled with a flower in her | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
bag and hoped to fulfil a lifetime's ambition by travdlling | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
across America, being photographed with it in San Francisco. Btt | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
Barbara Bel's holiday ended tragically when a truck failed to | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
stop at a desert rail crosshng in Nevada. It crashed into the train | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
that the retired teacher was on killing her and five others. Today | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
an inquest heard that fatigte probably caused the crash. The | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
twisted wreckage after a terrible accident. | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
A huge truck skidded and hit the carriage carrying retired Whitehaven | :08:31. | :08:37. | |
teacher Barbara Bell. Barbara, now a carriage worker, had saved `ll her | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
life for her dream trip. Shd told us her plans so we had this up. If any | :08:42. | :08:49. | |
e`mails or text messages cale through, we would update her travel. | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
It was just one day that thdre was nothing. Barbara had hoped to make | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
it to San Francisco. She wanted to go to wear a flower in her hair I | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
think she was a bit of a hippie She did take a flower and a feather boa | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
with her. She wanted to go to one of the festivals. The cruellest of | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
fortune was to intervene. The assistant coroner here in Ctmbria | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
said the most likely reason for the driver of the truck failing to see | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
the warnings as his lorry approached the crossing was fatigue. It was | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
also found that the breaks hn the truck were not properly maintained. | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
But three years on, Barbara's enthusiasm and love for othdrs has | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
not been forgotten. She is still very much with us in spirit. The | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
clients still talk about her. She was a dedicated follower of fashion. | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
We all laugh as Barbara did. She really loved that song. | :09:48. | :09:56. | |
It is a crime that costs shops a fortune, but should we see `ll | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
shoplifters are squirrels, or are there some victims who need help? | :10:01. | :10:09. | |
Today one police officer Delbert Commissioner is working with | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
offenders. `` should we see all shoplifters as criminals? | :10:15. | :10:22. | |
It is costing the shops millions. Shoplifting is getting worsd. But | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
are they victims of hard tiles or just crooks? Here in Durham they | :10:28. | :10:34. | |
sate softly softly works. Around 200 women arrested for theft have been | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
offered a ten week rehab cotrse instead, avoiding court. Wh`t we | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
have found from the success point of view is that those who complete the | :10:44. | :10:50. | |
work with us 75% do not reoffend. Our whole purpose is to prevent | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
crime. Isn't there a risk you are letting people get away with it | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
Unfortunately some people are unable to organise their own lifestyle and | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
that his wife we work with them and introduce structure so they do not | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
need to steal. Controversially, the crime commission also says the hard | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
times means people are stealing fresh food produce as well `nd not | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
just milk and bread but things like sandwiches. The crime commission are | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
things that because food banks only sell tinned or packaged goods, | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
people steal for the fresh food Is there ever an excuse? These people | :11:27. | :11:33. | |
that say they do not have enough money, they are always smokhng. I | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
can remember a time when it was very hard as well, years and years ago. | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
And not many people did that, that I knew of. The fact is, shoplhfting is | :11:44. | :11:51. | |
increasing. All are police forces say it grows year`on`year, typically | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
seven to 9%. But since April, Durham says things have got dramathcally | :11:57. | :12:03. | |
worse. Some blamed the impact of the Government welfare reforms. It has | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
gone up 29%. The Conservatives reject this argument. Everyone is in | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
favour of rehabilitation but trying to use that to slam Governmdnt | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
policy and welfare which is needed... We have inherited a | :12:20. | :12:26. | |
massively inflated welfare system, which does not give anyone hntended | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
to work, and we are changing that. All agree on a need to cut | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
shoplifting. Why it has got worse will remain contentious. | :12:36. | :12:42. | |
This month, the BBC has been marking the centenary of the outbre`k of | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
World War I. We have lit up stories of some of the local heroes who | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
fought the King country. `` we have looked at stories. John Brown`King | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
was the first Briton to fird the first shot at the start of the Great | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
War. He died of his wounds not long after that is story lives on in the | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
form of his great nephew, who is also named John Brown`King. | :13:05. | :13:10. | |
Just a day into the Great W`r, and already our troops were at sea. Lead | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
Gunnar John Brown`King fired the first shot of the Great War on board | :13:15. | :13:22. | |
his ship. The date was the 4th of August 1914, and the battle | :13:23. | :13:25. | |
commenced in the North Sea. John's shells helped sink a German mine | :13:26. | :13:32. | |
layer during an explosive b`ttle. His triumph has been passed down the | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
generations to his great nephew also called John Brown`King. But | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
until today, John had never seen the black in this church commemorating | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
his great uncle's wartime treatment. I have always been aware of the | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
story that he was the first person to fire the first shot in World War | :13:52. | :14:00. | |
I, but I had not heard of mx uncle being a hero. He was just a man who | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
did his duty. But he is a hd wrote to local historian Michael Scott, | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
who has been researching thd story. When you find out it was a Gateshead | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
man who was involved in this very first action and in fact lost his | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
life because of it, it really gives the First World War life. Mhchael | :14:18. | :14:24. | |
has discovered by the John's dying words to his mother, which were | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
printed in the local newspaper in 1914. | :14:28. | :14:37. | |
His final words were, I havd done my duty. John Brown`King died 000 years | :14:38. | :14:50. | |
ago tomorrow. A very sad story. Just five years | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
after it opened, a County Dtrham golf course is hosting its second | :14:57. | :14:58. | |
high`profile event. Rockliffe Hall at Hurworth saw | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
the English Senior Open tee off The tournament boasts three former | :15:03. | :15:04. | |
Ryder Cup captains, as well as claiming it'll bring a boost | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
for the local economy in its wake. Our business correspondent Han Reeve | :15:10. | :15:11. | |
reports. Just five years old, | :15:12. | :15:13. | |
but the Rockliffe Hall golf course is now well known within thd sport, | :15:14. | :15:15. | |
this the second year in a row that it's hosted the prestigious English | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
Senior Open, a challenge th`t All our leading players are here. | :15:21. | :15:42. | |
That attracts good crowds. Last year we saw a very healthy crowd of about | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
5000 people. This year we anticipate more if the weather is good. | :15:47. | :15:48. | |
Rockliffe, set out in the grounds of a former shipowner's stately | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
It plays, apparently, like `n older, more mature course. | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
Fitting, perhaps, for a tournament for the ovdr`5 s. | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
It feels quite a bit older. They spent the money on it. All debunkers | :16:01. | :16:09. | |
look great. They have plantdd trees but they will take time to grow but | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
it adds a lot of definition. That Rockliffe has won the | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
English Senior Open is a vindication of the whole project | :16:17. | :16:18. | |
here, not just the course. Eight years ago it was still | :16:19. | :16:20. | |
in the mind's eye of This would become the hotel, | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
with restaurants and spa. Beyond the walls was | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
the overgrown parkland that is The complex is now | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
a big economic driver. This weekend's golf, | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
with thousands of spectators, will It will have a financial effect for | :16:36. | :16:53. | |
a long time to come, hopefully. Around the area there are a lot of | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
hotels that are full. The spectators are staying there. There is a great | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
deal of spin off for the arda. Two successful English Senior Opens | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
may be a prelude, it's hoped, to getting an even more | :17:06. | :17:09. | |
high`profile tournament. Time for sport but we are not | :17:10. | :17:21. | |
starting with golf. It is football. Newcastle face an early start, | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
with a lunch time kick`off `t Sunderland have to wait unthl four | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
o'clock on Sunday afternoon before they meet Manchester United | :17:31. | :17:33. | |

their Premier League account with And Gus Poyet's hoping this week | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
his plans won't be caught up It was back on August 7th, | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
nine days before the season started, that Sunderland announced ddfender | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
Santiago Vergini would be rdjoining them on loan from the Argentinian | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
club Estudiantes. His late withdrawal | :17:53. | :17:54. | |
from the team to play at thd Hawthorns meant a hasty reshuffle | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
and, it could be argued, led to But they could not play him, because | :17:58. | :18:00. | |

it is a bit of an embarrasslent And it's also clear it wasn't | :18:15. | :18:20. | |
the head coach's fault. Can you just clear up why Vdrgini | :18:21. | :18:22. | |
didn't play? There were suggestions that | :18:23. | :18:26. | |

for the Magpies but there wdre some We earned our best stats ag`inst | :19:00. | :19:05. | |
Man City since I've been manager, But I expect us to have | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
a little bit more against Aston Villa, and therefore partictlarly | :19:11. | :19:16. | |

Sheffield Wednesday. And, given the fact their spuad is | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
still not as strong as the coach wants it to be, they've madd a | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
pretty decent start to the season. With the points, it always gives you | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
the confidence, and for me it's very important, because | :20:07. | :20:08. | |
we don't have the full squad. We are playing with the plaxers | :20:09. | :20:13. | |

to add points when we are not 1 0%. In League Two, Hartlepool ` | :20:21. | :20:30. | |
without a point or a goal so far this season ` travel to | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
Wimbledon, but that's not as long Carlisle take on Southend at | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
Brunton Park, with manager Graham Kavanagh hoping | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
that a midweek draw at Cheltenham is I thought in pre`season bec`use | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
there was such a freedom about how The shackles were off and they went | :20:43. | :20:50. | |
and performed in all the gales. I thought that boded well for how | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
we were going to start the season. Quite clearly, that hasn't happened, | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
but I thought there were enough signs tonight | :20:59. | :21:01. | |
for us to be really positivd We have had one or two injuries | :21:02. | :21:03. | |
but I think the group now h`s shown We have to get the consistency | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
of performance. If we can do that, | :21:09. | :21:14. | |
I'm more than confident and Mercury prize nominees The Tnthanks | :21:15. | :21:16. | |
are gearing up for possibly The Tyneside folk band are to | :21:17. | :21:24. | |

ceremony, which will be seen by thousands of people on the Puayside | :21:29. | :21:31. | |
and millions around the world. For tonight's Look North | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
report, the sisters took tile out from recording | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
their new album to talk to our arts reporter, Sharuna Sagar, about | :21:39. | :21:40. | |
regional pride, song selecthons Two years in the making, and one | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
more week in their Corbridgd studio. This song is a track | :21:44. | :22:04. | |
on the Unthanks' So is this going to be | :22:05. | :22:06. | |
a typical Unthanks album? Yes, in the sense that we'vd taken | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
songs from different places, some old songs, some newer ones and | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
also writing some more oursdlves. We are always looking for songs that | :22:19. | :22:26. | |
strike a chord with us and that we feel like we can represent | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
and we want to tell the story. But at the same time, | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
we've always got different lusical Next year, | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
the record will be released, they'll embark on a UK tour, and | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
celebrate their 10th anniversary. But before all that, | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
the biggest gig of their lives is We're going to be performing three | :22:51. | :23:05. | |
songs as part of the opening There is a song from | :23:06. | :23:11. | |
Sting's The Last Ship. We will be performing that | :23:12. | :23:19. | |
as well with some great North East singers, and musicians, so we're | :23:20. | :23:22. | |
really excited to be involvdd. This event will be shown | :23:23. | :23:28. | |
around the world. We're going to be on the Qu`yside, | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
lots of Geordies and everyone will The sisters take a break | :23:32. | :23:40. | |
from recording to go over their set list, as Rachel's husband, | :23:41. | :23:51. | |
musical director Adrian, What do you think? Does that sound | :23:52. | :24:09. | |
good? It is really lovely to be part of an event celebrating the North | :24:10. | :24:12. | |
East in such a positive light. The millionth runner, all these people | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
who have come to the North Dast and it is great to be shoulder to | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
shoulder with people represdnting the North East. That feels really | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
exciting. I'm proud. Have ehther of you two ever run the Great North | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
Run? I knew this question w`s going to run! We are more like supporters | :24:31. | :24:36. | |
on the sidelines. Or maybe on the sofa! | :24:37. | :24:39. | |
Well, it is their singing ` not their running ` | :24:40. | :24:41. | |
And with the massive exposure the opening ceremony will bring | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
this could turn out to be their best`selling album yet. | :24:46. | :24:54. | |
So for running is the sport for me. The bank holiday weekend. You have | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
got good news? A little bit better than thd | :25:01. | :25:10. | |
forecast we were giving earlier in the week. Maybe a little less wet on | :25:11. | :25:16. | |
Monday. It has been cloudy for the last few days. | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
The headline for the weekend, there will be some showers and sunshine as | :25:22. | :25:28. | |
well. This evening and overnight, further showers across the North | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
East. Through the night, many showers will start to die away. | :25:34. | :25:38. | |
Clear spells and temperaturds once again falling again into single | :25:39. | :25:42. | |
figures. It gets colder tomorrow night into Sunday. Her below starts | :25:43. | :25:53. | |
on Saturday. Lots of sunshine and dry weather at first but | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
increasingly showers blowing in north`western breezes and through | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
the afternoon, those showers more widespread. Loads of events going | :26:01. | :26:08. | |
on. Best to grab a brolly. Plenty of downpours tomorrow afternoon. Once | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
again, cool with those northerly winds or north`westerly winds. | :26:14. | :26:15. | |
Temperatures in the afternoon in the East know more around 15 or 16 | :26:16. | :26:23. | |
Celsius, possibly up to 17 hn Cumbria. | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
Higher pressure builds throtgh Sunday. Clear skies Saturdax night | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
into Sunday make it really chilly first thing on Sunday morning. A | :26:33. | :26:36. | |
largely dry, fine day and then this area of low pressure that brings | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
rain across the UK on bank holiday Monday. It now looks likely to stay | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
slightly further South than we had originally forecast. So for the | :26:46. | :26:48. | |
North East and Cumbria, possibly not quite as breezy or as wet as we had | :26:49. | :26:54. | |
feared. A few showers possible, particularly through Monday morning. | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
But for most of us, it should be a largely dry day. Some of thd detail | :26:59. | :27:04. | |
for the rest of the long bank holiday weekend. Largely drx and | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
find across Cumbria through Sunday and Monday, but noticed the cloud. | :27:11. | :27:13. | |
Not much in the way of sunshine and possibly a bit pessimistic for | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
Sunday. Maybe some bright breaks in the cloud here. The further North | :27:19. | :27:25. | |
has the more chance of getthng sunshine on Sunday. | :27:26. | :27:32. | |
Berwick`upon`Tweed has sunnx spells. Nowhere near warm, although we do | :27:33. | :27:33. | |
stay mostly dry. | :27:34. | :27:38. |
