6pm. It's goodbye from me and on BBC One, we join our teams | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
What a day it has been. Good evening and welcome to Thursday's Look | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
North. Our top stories tonight... The storm claims a victim. A man is | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
crushed by a tree as 80mph storms and tidal surges batter our region. | :00:15. | :00:22. | |
I can't actually keep my eyes open because the rain is stinging so | :00:23. | :00:30. | |
much. The wind speed up here are two 80 mph. | :00:31. | :00:32. | |
We'll report on how you've coped with the disruption and we'll be | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
live in Scarborough, where they're expecting the biggest tides in 60 | :00:36. | :00:37. | |
years. Over the last two hours, heavy seas | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
have reached the sea walls, threatening some businesses and | :00:45. | :00:45. | |
closing roads. Also tonight, will the Chancellor's | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
Autumn Atatement give Yorkshire's businesses the boost they need? | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
And saving Yorkshire's heritage ` we preview a new programme looking at | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
the restoration of some our oldest buildings. | :00:55. | :01:03. | |
After an exceptionally windy day, all eyes turned towards the coast, | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
where there is an alert out for strong winds. Join me for the | :01:08. | :01:08. | |
latest. Welcome to the programme on the day | :01:09. | :01:21. | |
winter storms battered our region. The highest wind of 87mph was in | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
High Bradfield in South Yorkshire but, in many places, lorries have | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
been blown over and roofs blown off. Emergency services have had their | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
busiest day of the year, dealing with more than 200 incidents. One | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
man died after being hit by a falling tree in Retford while he was | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
on his mobility scooter. But, tonight, the big concern is for the | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
coast. There are now six flood warnings. It's feared high tide may | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
cause the worst flooding for 60 years. Jamie Coulson is in | :01:48. | :01:56. | |
Scarborough tonight. When we arrived here in Scarborough | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
today, it was blue skies and the sea was absolutely calm. Look behind me | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
now, you can still see where the sea has completely over the road and | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
earlier run when, `` earlier on, when it was high tide, it was | :02:11. | :02:17. | |
higher. It has been a very trying time for some in Scarborough today. | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
Early afternoon and crashing waves start to pound the sea wall in | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
Scarborough as strong winds combined with high tides to create | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
spectacular conditions. The seas have been getting increasingly heavy | :02:32. | :02:34. | |
here and the concern here and along the rest of the East Coast is how | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
they will cope when it gets too high tide. Earlier in the day, businesses | :02:39. | :02:49. | |
on Scarborough's south they made their preparations as the sun shone. | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
There is a big high tide June at about 6pm and there is a storm surge | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
behind it, so we don't want to get the arcade flooded. We have spoken | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
to the fishermen and they said it there is a storm surge coming. We | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
had flood warnings, so it is better to be safe than sorry was stopped | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
for the lifeboat crew, everything was ready to go, knowing what the | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
weather might bring. We are likely to have big rollers going across the | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
bay, a lot of Whitewater. As the water floods up and hits the wall | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
and rebounds back. Dangerous? The potential for danger as the day goes | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
on. As the tide turned, the conditions change and the sea became | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
treacherous, causing closures on the seafront. They are overtopping by | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
some considerable amount at the moment. I've never seen anything | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
like it. It is amazing, unpredictable. Violent and on | :03:52. | :04:00. | |
friendly as macro on friendly. The seas flooded some businesses. We | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
have never seen it this bad. It has been bad but never as bad as this. | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
It was like this once, years ago with the rain but I have never seen | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
it like this with the sea. The tide is receding but for some the threat | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
continues as more heavy seas are predicted for tomorrow. If you look | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
behind me, it is difficult to believe that the tide is receding | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
but that is now actually a much better picture than it was a short | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
time ago. Let us talk to Kath Duffy, who is the publican whose pub was | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
flooded. How bad are things? The seller is absolutely flooded. It is | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
over my head. The fire officers have been for about an hour and they have | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
to say, they said. They are going but another crew has come in because | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
they don't know what will happen with the next tide. The inside of my | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
part, you can see up to my knees how wet it is. This was a highly | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
publicised event. Did you think you take any precautions to protect your | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
part? It has never been as bad as this. The last time all around us, | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
the basement flooded normally but it never really happens to us. It was | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
happens beside, where the beaches. Having the harbour in front of us, | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
the basement usually gets it but never as bad as it is now. For a lot | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
of businesses, this is not the end. There is a lot of concern about what | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
tomorrow's high tide in the early hours will bring. | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
It goes without saying that we will have more from Scarborough at 10pm. | :05:42. | :05:49. | |
Earlier today, though, it was storm force winds which caused widespread | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
problems. Cathy Killick has been out since in the early hours, looking at | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
the disruption they've caused. For commuters, the day started badly. | :05:59. | :06:05. | |
Road destruction was `` disruption was widespread. The council closed | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
the road to traffic. Pedestrians were allowed to battle through. Even | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
that was hazardous. This man was blown off this feat. He just lost | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
his balance. You are tripping over yourself all the time. I try to | :06:24. | :06:30. | |
catch him but I was too late. I'm glad this road is shut. It is | :06:31. | :06:38. | |
terrible here. It has been extremely difficult today. Save journey. Thank | :06:39. | :06:47. | |
you. I measured wind speeds of 42 mph. At 30 mph, it is difficult to | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
stand up, letter done `` let alone hold a camera steady, as you can | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
see. At Leeds Bradford International, it was deserted. With | :06:58. | :07:06. | |
high winds over the airport this morning, we had a number of delays | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
and cancellations. Obviously, we are appreciative of the patients and | :07:12. | :07:13. | |
understanding of passengers given the will weather conditions. `` | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
given the weather conditions. Outside, conditions were atrocious. | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
I cannot keep my eyes open because the will rain is stinging. There are | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
wind speeds in a 40 mph. There is no way I would want to be near an air | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
plane. It is no surprise they are grounded. The wind is thought to | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
have led to a power cut at Barnsley Hospital. For a while, only the | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
Moses the operations could be carried out. Things are back to | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
normal now. Damage to buildings close some streets in Leeds city | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
centre. Damage to the roof of this Tesco led to the closure of the | :07:53. | :08:00. | |
shopping centre. One of the busiest days of the year so far, all | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
weather`related. The storm is tracking from being North to the | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
South and consequently that is how the calls have been received. A | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
Leeds taxi driver had a lucky escape when a tree fell on his car while he | :08:16. | :08:24. | |
was inside. Passers`by helped out. I was OK but I could not get out. Some | :08:25. | :08:36. | |
people came along and help me out. Fire crews will be at busy wearing | :08:37. | :08:44. | |
many more trees like this one. There have been numerous accidents across | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
Yorkshire, including on the Aone where winds have blown because of | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
course. Her piece to camera then told | :08:53. | :09:12. | |
something of the story of the wind there. The strongest winds have been | :09:13. | :09:20. | |
80 mph, high in the Pennines. Nicola Hudson's been in Netherton near | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
Huddersfield, where one newly`built home had its entire roof blown off. | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
Another casualty of the gales. The ruse of this house, being built in | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
Netherton, was completely blown off at lunchtime today. Luckily, no one | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
was hurt. I saw the roof liftoff and it hovered in the air for a few | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
seconds before it tumbled onto the ground. I wasn't sure which way it | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
was going to go but fortunately it went into what will be the garden. | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
For anyone going past, it would have been frightening. A few miles away, | :09:51. | :09:59. | |
there was a clear up operation on a farm after the winds destroyed a | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
ban. It was howling through the roof and when I got up at 530 AM, and | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
came round to check the horses, I realise that one of the barn doors | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
was on the floor. The wind was so strong, it is hard to walk and I | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
have never known it as windy as this. It is unpredictable, things up | :10:20. | :10:28. | |
falling off roofs and things flying around. You don't know where it will | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
hit next. This is one of the highest and most exposed parts of | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
Huddersfield but even here, where people are used to extreme weather | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
conditions, today has been rare, with gusts reaching 81 mph. That was | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
enough to uproot trees and destroyed property before the winds finally | :10:48. | :10:58. | |
died damn. `` died down. Most of the road and rail problems are easing | :10:59. | :11:06. | |
now. First TransPennine and Northern Rail's service to Hull will stop at | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
Selby due to the flood warnings in place for this evening. There is a | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
wonderful service on your local radio. The latest travel information | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
is available on their for up`to`the`minute advice. | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
You've been sending us lots of your photos of today's storm. Paul will | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
be here with some of them and a full forecast later. Do please give | :11:29. | :11:35. | |
sending them, either on Facebook or by e`mail or by tweeting us. | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
Later on Look North... No fuel rise but a longer working life. Will the | :11:43. | :11:54. | |
Autumn Statement give businesses the boost they say they need? | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
I am at a Stillman factor, finding out what the Autumn Statement means | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
for Yorkshire's business and whether there is anything in it for you. | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
First, some more of the day's news. The Court of Appeal has increased | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
the sentence handed to a York teacher convicted of sex offences | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
against children. Richard Oldham, seen here in the sunglasses, filmed | :12:15. | :12:17. | |
pupils as they changed for swimming lessons and downloaded more than | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
2,000 indecent images. In September, he was given a six`month jail term, | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
described by campaigners as "catastrophically lenient". The | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
Court of Appeal has now raised his sentence to 13 months. I was struck | :12:32. | :12:40. | |
by just how low the sentence was and that is why I referred it to Appeal. | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
The judge today, the Lord Justice, make the point that if this had not | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
the `` this had been a not guilty plea, the sentence would have been | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
longer indeed, 30 months or more . Police are continuing to question a | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
man over the shooting of a police officer in Leeds yesterday. The | :13:05. | :13:06. | |
33`year`old officer suffered injuries to her face, neck and right | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
hand when she was shot at a house in Cardigan Road in the Hyde Park area | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
of the city in the early hours of the morning. After a six`hour | :13:15. | :13:17. | |
manhunt, the suspect, 37`year`old James Leslie, was arrested in | :13:18. | :13:19. | |
Headingley. He remains in custody. ?5 million worth of Government | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
funding has been given to the people in charge of Sheffield's Supertram | :13:23. | :13:25. | |
network. The Government money will be spent on replacing old sections | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
of track built in to the road. The Transport Minister announced the | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
investment while on a visit to Sheffield. Work will be carried out | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
by the South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive along with the | :13:36. | :13:47. | |
tram operators and city council. No fuel rise and a tax break for | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
married couples, but with a price... You'll have to work untill you're | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
68. Just some of the measures set out by the Chancellor in his Autumn | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
Statement today. He says things are getting better, but what's the | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
reality for Yorkshire? Our business correspondent, Danni Hewson, is at a | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
manufacturer in Sheffield this evening and joins us now. | :14:05. | :14:12. | |
The numbers show the economy is picking up and that is true for | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
Yorkshire, like the rest of the country, even if it is a bit slower. | :14:16. | :14:23. | |
I am at Ekspan Ltd and they say their books are full. They are | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
working on these, the bearings which go underneath holdings and bridges | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
and make them waffle rather than fall over in the wind, which is | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
rather apt considering today. They have also been working on | :14:38. | :14:39. | |
manufacturing in the renewables sector, which means they have been | :14:40. | :14:42. | |
watching the Autumn Statement like a hawk for any mention of green | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
taxes, as has anyone who has an energy bill to pay. | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
It is no surprise energy has been at the heart of the Autumn Statement. | :14:53. | :14:54. | |
It is at the heart of most families' concerns about living. But | :14:55. | :15:03. | |
the cuts to build will not do much for the Wilkinson 's. Although they | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
both work and the house is empty for much of the day, paying their fuel | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
bills is a headache and the amount left over keeps shrinking. | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
Everything is going up except salaries. Last, a 1% pay rise, the | :15:14. | :15:20. | |
year before a 0% pay rise. It is hard for us. For anyone not working, | :15:21. | :15:28. | |
it is much worse. As for the unemployed, many believe that one | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
answer to creating jobs in Yorkshire can be found by boosting small | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
businesses like Franco's Restaurant in Leeds. They were measures to | :15:36. | :15:38. | |
help, including discounted business rates. There is no help with a | :15:39. | :15:47. | |
billing quirk that has stuck businesses with sky`high energy | :15:48. | :15:56. | |
bills. That is 10,000 up to ?15,000 on my bills. That is a huge amount. | :15:57. | :16:08. | |
Figures released yesterday show that cash is weighted in favour of the | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
South. 29 billion is bent on projects like Crossrail. Only 5 | :16:14. | :16:20. | |
billion found its way into Yorkshire. One project is a | :16:21. | :16:29. | |
commitment to offshore wind. It is a fantastic opportunity for small and | :16:30. | :16:32. | |
medium businesses. A mixed bag with as many opportunities as | :16:33. | :16:39. | |
disappointments. Let us drill down a little bit more. Deborah Egan, you | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
from Ekspan Ltd. On the face of it, not bad news, especially when they | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
talk about offshore wind. It is good news for us as far as investment | :16:48. | :16:50. | |
from central government is concerned. The devil is in the | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
detail but we have a good track history as far as delivery in that | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
sector is concerned and we hope this investment will stimulate our supply | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
chain to encourage that to develop and grow. We will see what happens. | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
The devil is always in the detail. The detail looks pretty good for | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
small businesses. Yes, we are optimistic about what has come out. | :17:12. | :17:21. | |
They have announced that they have given extra to the small high`street | :17:22. | :17:24. | |
shops and things annex ?1000 of their rates, which will be very | :17:25. | :17:31. | |
welcome and will be a boost to the small shopping units out there. We | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
obviously have seen that a lot of this infrastructure money is going | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
in the South. I guess you want that to be redressed. The North is | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
feeling the squeeze between the investor in Scotland and the drawing | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
of the money into the South East, which is an old story. The real | :17:50. | :18:01. | |
engine of the economy has or has been a north and we need to nurture | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
that to make sure it is at full to grow as a dynamic economy. All of | :18:06. | :18:12. | |
those changes to help small businesses, we want them to create | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
more jobs. More jobs is obviously good news for the economy in | :18:18. | :18:19. | |
Yorkshire and we are respecting a lot for announcements as we drill | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
further down into the detail as the days go on. | :18:25. | :18:31. | |
We'll Sport now and Leeds United were in | :18:32. | :18:42. | |
action last night against Wigan Athletic in the Championship. | :18:43. | :18:44. | |
Leeds have never beaten Wigan before but their fortunes changed last | :18:45. | :18:47. | |
night. McCormack bundled home his eighth goal in six matches to open | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
the scoring. Wigan went close to equalising but were thwarted by | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
Leeds keeper Paddy Kenny. McCormack scored the two goals of the night. | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
The result means Leeds are now seventh in the Championship. | :18:59. | :19:08. | |
In Super League, the Bradford Bulls could be heading for hard times | :19:09. | :19:10. | |
again, following new revelations about their financial situation. | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
Last night, directors gave fans what's been described as a "full and | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
frank analysis of the club's position". A deficit of some | :19:19. | :19:20. | |
?400,000 has been uncovered. The Bulls insist they are not going into | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
administration at the moment. But, if it's not dealt with soon, players | :19:25. | :19:31. | |
may need to be sold. We have been putting in new structures, new | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
benchmarking systems, to move the business forward. There is a pathway | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
and a strategy but it means that tough decisions have to be made. We | :19:40. | :19:54. | |
have to think about the bigger picture, about the club and we have | :19:55. | :20:00. | |
to maybe take a couple of steps back. | :20:01. | :20:02. | |
Now, we have many beautiful buildings in Yorkshire, and a | :20:03. | :20:05. | |
programme on BBC One tonight looks at what's being done to restore some | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
of our oldest treasures. There are some hidden gems you might never | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
have heard of as well as a look at the restoration of Wentworth Castle | :20:14. | :20:15. | |
Conservatory near Barnsley. It's presented by the veteran | :20:16. | :20:18. | |
broadcaster, John Sergeant. We'll hear from him in a minute. First, | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
with a preview of the programme, here's David Tracz. | :20:23. | :20:30. | |
We have lots of wonderful buildings in Yorkshire. Some are easy to spot. | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
Others are almost forgotten. They all tell stories about how we lived | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
in the past. Ten years ago, the BBC make a programme called Restoration. | :20:42. | :20:53. | |
It celebrated buildings in peril. Wentworth Castle Conservatory was | :20:54. | :20:56. | |
one of those. It was a fragile survivor from the 1880s and its | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
future looked bleak. It was built as a showcase for exotic plants but by | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
2003 it was overrun by Ivy. Its starring role on the programme | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
inspired a campaign to save it and a decade later, the Victorian treasure | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
opened to the public after a formerly impound building programme. | :21:16. | :21:20. | |
As John Sergeant discovers, it is not such a similar programme for | :21:21. | :21:28. | |
Stank Hall. It is falling apart. Of all the places I have been, this | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
looks the most dilapidated. A group of enthusiastic supporters are | :21:34. | :21:41. | |
hoping to save it for the future. It is a beautifully shot programme | :21:42. | :21:44. | |
and John Sergeant has been very passionate in his support for Stank | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
Hall. He says work to preserve it has already begun. The roof has been | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
secured, so it is dry. From the outside, it does not look much, it | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
is enabled area and you could pass it without seeing Ford is. It is one | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
of the oldest secular buildings in Leeds. When you go inside, it is | :22:04. | :22:10. | |
wonderful to see. Is it worth doing? Why bother? It will cost | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
millions of pounds to restore it. If you don't bother, there is no going | :22:15. | :22:20. | |
back. You haven't got the Crossman, eight the people to rebuild these | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
places even if you could, so you must restore them. If you can stop | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
the rain going in, it is amazing what you can do. An architect wants | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
to turn another building into holiday homes. That is quite | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
controversial. It may be controversial but I think that is a | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
good project. It needs a new roof, so why not have a really good on the | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
modern roof and really just enjoy the fact it has a new use. Who wants | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
a castle nowadays? From what you have seen in Yorkshire, is there | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
that appetite to restore buildings? What I thought was tremendous was | :22:56. | :23:04. | |
the enthusiasm of the volunteers. Without the volunteers, forget it. | :23:05. | :23:11. | |
You can see Restoring England's Heritage on BBC One tonight at | :23:12. | :23:13. | |
7:30pm. Back to our main story now and the | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
high winds and high tides causing problems across Yorkshire. We can | :23:18. | :23:20. | |
talk to Oliver Harmer from the Environment Agency now. He joins us | :23:21. | :23:22. | |
from Hull. What is the situation in North | :23:23. | :23:25. | |
Yorkshire at the moment? Good evening. The situation is a serious | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
one. We have the highest sea levels and the most extreme wave conditions | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
we have seen for 60 years. We have severe flood warnings that have been | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
issued for Whitby, we have flooding in other places and in we are | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
concerned about Scarborough as well. We are working with the emergency | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
services. People can find information on the Environment | :23:48. | :23:53. | |
Agency website. What should people in those areas be doing tonight? If | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
you receive a flood warning, please take it very seriously. It is a | :24:00. | :24:02. | |
serious situation. Whatever you do, stay away from the shoreline. Stay | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
away from flood defences and floodwater. Even a very small depth | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
of floodwater can watch people off their feet. Spray can be very | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
dangerous, it can be damaging to vehicles. Please take care of your | :24:15. | :24:20. | |
personal safety and alert family, friends and neighbours who might | :24:21. | :24:22. | |
also be at risk, particularly those more vulnerable. It is important we | :24:23. | :24:33. | |
focus on people' `` people's safety. That is our concern in the next two | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
hours. We will have more on this at 10pm tonight. The floods of 96 D3 | :24:40. | :24:52. | |
were a historical high. You have sent us loads of pictures `` the | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
floods of 1963. Watch the roof as the winds peaked at around 75 mph. | :25:00. | :25:10. | |
It was a buffeting morning across Yorkshire. We had gusts of 87 mph | :25:11. | :25:16. | |
over the top of the pan Ines. We have a picture of which the seafront | :25:17. | :25:20. | |
flooded. Thank you for that. Unfortunate flooding and we have | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
seen similar pictures elsewhere. Sheffield. A gable end rid `` ripped | :25:26. | :25:36. | |
off a house. That is Station Road. I know it well. Finally, High | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
Bradfield comes up trumps. It does not look much but that is where we | :25:41. | :25:53. | |
had gusts of 87 mph. If you have any fresh pictures, send them to those | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
addresses on screen. Still an alert for strong winds along the coast. | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
Here is a look at the top gusts. Exceptional gusts. 86 mph. Leeds | :26:01. | :26:10. | |
Bradford airport, hardly surprising there was disruption. It will cloud | :26:11. | :26:18. | |
over after a sunny start tomorrow. There will be much less wind. The | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
weekend looks more settled. The cold front is in there somewhere. Ahead | :26:23. | :26:25. | |
of that is where we had the strongest damaging gusts. We have | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
some wintry showers following in from the North West, perhaps a | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
slight covering of snow over the Pennines for a time. Watch out for | :26:35. | :26:42. | |
ice patches. Temperatures down to `2 or minus three Celsius. The | :26:43. | :26:46. | |
important high tide information. The next one is in the morning. 6am | :26:47. | :26:53. | |
onwards, there will be another risk of coastal flooding right along the | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
East Coast. Lots of sunshine first thing. It is a nice morning. One or | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
two wintry showers, widespread ice and then the cloud spreads in from | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
the west. There may be some sleet later in the day. A damp and dreary | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
end to the day. It stays dry further east and the wind will continue to | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
ease. Top tipsters will be three or four Celsius. The weekend is looking | :27:20. | :27:28. | |
fine. It is cloudy to start with on Saturday and then it dries. Next | :27:29. | :27:34. | |
week looks more settled. We will leave you tonight with a shot from | :27:35. | :27:37. | |
Scarborough. If you're in that neck of the woods, take care. We'll be | :27:38. | :27:45. | |
back at 10:25pm. Stay safe. Good night. | :27:46. | :27:50. |
