Good evening. Fracking will not happen in the West Sussex vhllage of | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
Balcombe now or in the future. That promise has been made by thd energy | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
company Cuadrilla, which carried out test drilling for oil there last | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
year. However, the company hasn t ruled out extracting oil from the | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
site, where hundreds of protesters camped out over the summer. It led | :01:31. | :01:41. | |
to a policing bill of almost ?4 million. Our Environment | :01:42. | :01:43. | |
Correspondent Yvette Austin has been getting reaction from the vhllage. | :01:44. | :01:51. | |
Confrontational scenes betwden anti`fracking protesters and police | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
back in the summer. Or, in the national news for the lengthy | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
demonstration against Cuadrhlla test drilling for oil. Today there was a | :02:02. | :02:10. | |
new worry, another planning application from Cuadrilla hs with | :02:11. | :02:17. | |
West Sussex county council. I am terrified for the children. The air | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
happen. As long as it is safe and happen. As long as it is safe and | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
passes all the safety recommendations then it is fine I | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
would rather get everything from here rather than rely on thd Middle | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
East and Russia for the fuel. I East and Russia for the fuel. I | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
think they have been very good. Cuadrilla want to carry out tests to | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
see at what rate the oil it has found may flow to the surface. In a | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
letter to residents and tells them, the main testing operation would | :02:53. | :02:59. | |
last from three to five weeks. And it confirmed that the target rock | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
was naturally frag `` fracttred So no fracking necessary. The puestion | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
is whether the oil is there and then whether there are the connect did | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
hold in the rock or cracks that allow it to come out if you drill. | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
So the company has found th`t in this area the rock is already | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
fractured by natural processes and therefore it is not approprhate to | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
use fracking. In the summer the parish council came under fhre for | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
not consulting residents on Cuadrilla's plans. Not wanthng to | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
make the same mistake again, a survey will be carried out of local | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
residents. We want to give dveryone a say on how they want as to react | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
to this planning application. So there will be a poll going | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
door`to`door by post. What hs immediately clear is that there is | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
relief that fracking has bedn ruled out here. Yvette joins us lhve from | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
Balcombe. So what happens ndxt with Cuadrilla's plans there? Thd | :04:08. | :04:15. | |
planning application will bd published on the west Sussex county | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
council website very soon. But it could be the summer before | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
councillors make a final decision. There are concerns, whether the site | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
would become an industrial zone or whether it could lead to more wells | :04:28. | :04:36. | |
being drilled in nearby countryside. A Kent schoolgirl fears she's been | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
left partially blinded after a boy threw a pencil at her during a maths | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
lesson. Kodie Cooper from Ashford says it went into her eye lhke a | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
dart. She had to spend almost a week in hospital. Kent Police have | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
confirmed they're investigating an alleged assault at the John Wallis | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
Academy. The school say it was an unfortunate accident. Simon Jones | :04:56. | :05:04. | |
reports. Finally released from hospital after a maths lesson that | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
could have a profound effect on the rest of her life. He threw ` pencil | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
and it pierced my pupil so now I have got scars there and it | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
basically blinded me. I do not know if they will be able to sort it out | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
completely. But they said that I have to have an operation and that | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
is scary. The police are now examining what happened herd. Kodie | :05:35. | :05:41. | |
Cooper's mother says there should have been more discipline. She could | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
have long`term damage because of this. She has already spent six days | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
in hospital being medicated every hour. It has been a scary | :05:53. | :05:59. | |
experience. And what do you think about going back to school? She is | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
not going to go back. There is no safeguarding for the childrdn. The | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
principle of the John Wallis Academy told us that what happened was a | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
genuine accident. He said for pupils were sitting around the samd table | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
in the maths class. One of the boys finished early and playfullx through | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
the pencil. He said it was not done aggressively and that the boy is | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
distraught. I do not know if I will get my eyesight back fully. Setting | :06:33. | :06:40. | |
jobs I will not be able to have The treatment continues at home and the | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
school says it will offer the family all the support it needs. Shmon | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
Jones is outside the school in Ashford. What more do we know about | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
the boy who apparently threw the pencil? I understand that the boy | :06:55. | :07:03. | |
was temporarily excluded whhlst the school carried out an investigation | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
into what happened. That has now concluded, finding that this was an | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
accident. The boy will be free to return though I understand he has | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
not done so yet and has been working from home. The police investigation | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
is continuing. They have spoken to Kodie Cooper earlier this wdek | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
whilst she was in hospital `nd will speak to her again later thhs week. | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
They say the enquiry is verx much on going. | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
In a moment, a learning curve ` the secondary school which has seen a | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
dramatic improvement in its pupils' performance. | :07:41. | :07:47. | |
A corrupt Gatwick Airport b`ggage handler who helped a gang try to | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
smuggle millions of pounds worth of cocaine into the UK has been jailed | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
for ten years. David Fox from Portslade admitted agreeing to | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
intercept the drugs, which were hidden inside a suitcase, when they | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
arrived on a flight from thd Caribbean. Chrissie Reidy joins us | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
live from the Old Bailey. How did this drug`smuggling ring opdrate, | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
Chrissie? David Fox was part of this drugs | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
gang smuggling drugs into the UK from the Caribbean. His rold as | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
baggage handler at Gatwick was to intercept marked luggage as it came | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
into Gatwick remove the drugs and get it out of airport. Therd were | :08:30. | :08:36. | |
two main calls, coming in from a flight from Antigua, ?2 million | :08:37. | :08:46. | |
worth of cocaine in terms of the street value. Then there was a | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
flight from St Lucia carrying five kilos. David Fox managed to get the | :08:51. | :08:58. | |
drugs out of the airport right by this time he was under survdillance | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
and was later arrested by police. David Fox has been sentenced to ten | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
years in prison. What did the judge have to say? He was sentencdd to ten | :09:08. | :09:14. | |
years along with his co`defdndant Gabriela France's who was sdntenced | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
to nine years. The judge sahd she recognised that David Fox w`s not | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
the ringleader but said that his role had been inevitable `` pivotal. | :09:24. | :09:36. | |
A 23`year`old man is due before magistrates today charged whth the | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
murder of a Portuguese man hn Crawley. 45`year`old Joao Esteves | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
was found with serious head injuries in the early hours of Sundax morning | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
in an alleyway off Haslett @venue East. Daniel Palmer from St`tion | :09:46. | :09:48. | |

More than 250 Gurkha soldiers based in Kent face redundancy as ` result | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
of Army cuts announced todax. The Defence Secretary Philip Halmond | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
said 246 posts would be lost from the Royal Gurkha Rifles who are | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
based at Shorncliffe Barracks in Folkestone. 28 are to go from the | :10:05. | :10:07. | |

48 Albanian stowaways have been found in the back of a lorrx heading | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
to Kent. They were discoverdd last night during routine checks in | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
France, as the truck waited to board a shuttle to Folkestone, and have | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
been handed over to the French authorities. The Romanian lorry | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
driver has been arrested. A Kent school which was one of the | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
worst in the country four ydars ago is celebrating a huge improvement. | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
Last summer 71% of pupils g`ined at least five good GCSEs at Wilmington | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
Enterprise College, near Dartford. In 2010 that figure was just 11 , | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
and the school was in speci`l measures. It's now one of the | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
best`performing nonselectivd schools in the South East, and Ellid Price | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
is there for us. Ellie, the head teacher says they could do dven | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
better if they didn't have to compete with local grammar schools. | :10:59. | :11:09. | |
The head teacher should know. She says her school is surrounddd by | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
grammar schools which by thdir very nature take the most academhcally | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
gifted children from the arda. She said that it is therefore dhfficult | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
for her school to get the good results and it has a negative effect | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
on pupils who did not managd to do so well in their 11 plus. Only one | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
in ten students came away whth five good GCSEs. Four years later, things | :11:33. | :11:40. | |
are different. When I first came here at the pass rate was horrific. | :11:41. | :11:48. | |
But now all of the teachers are enthusiastic and that has rtbbed off | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
on the students. I was not the best behaved student. But they still | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
wanted me to get good grades. There has been a lot of good infltence | :11:57. | :12:02. | |
from the teachers. The facilities may have changed, the students have | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
not. The academy takes pupils of all abilities, which the head tdacher | :12:09. | :12:15. | |
admits present challenges. Tnselect good schools get pupils who are | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
below the national average `t the starting point and the expectation | :12:21. | :12:21. | |
is that they will be of the National is that they will be of the National | :12:22. | :12:29. | |
average or above. That is dhfficult. If you scrapped grammar schools | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
would it make life easier for head teachers in schools like thhs? | :12:34. | :12:39. | |
Certainly failing schools, there may be a lot less of them espechally in | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
Kent if they did not give some schools a mountain to climb. It is | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
an argument that has not convinced everyone. Grammar school pl`ces are | :12:49. | :12:56. | |
oversubscribed because they do consistently over perform. @nd this | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
year they have done proporthonately better again with these restlts But | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
you also have academies into the mix now. They are outside the control of | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
the local education authority and national curriculum. Critics say | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
when things start to go wrong with the academies it is difficult to | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
point the finger of Lane and therefore difficult to improve | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
things. So how have the rest of our schools | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
performed in this year's GCSE league tables? `` the finger of nale. | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
63% of pupils in Kent and 62% in Brighton and Hove, have achheved at | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
least five good GCSE passes, including English and Maths. In East | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
and West Sussex that figure's around 60%. And the figure in Medw`y is | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
61%, better than the nation`l average of 60.6, even though the | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
local education authority h`s been rated one of the worst in the | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
country for primary school performance. | :13:56. | :14:03. | |
Ditto digs are not everything. There are different challenges and these | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
all have to be taken into account. All of the schools are workhng | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
together to achieve the verx best for our young people. | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
Many of the grammar schools in Kent and Medway have achieved outstanding | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
results, and are ranked among the best performing schools in the | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
country, but there are imprdssive GCSE`level results among | :14:25. | :14:26. | |
nonselective schools in the South East this year. 72% of pupils at | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
Dorothy Stringer in Brighton achieved five or more A`star to C | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
grades, including English and Maths. At Heathfield Community College in | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
East Sussex, that figure was 74 . While 78% of students at Willingdon | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
Community School, on the edge of Eastbourne, made the grade. And you | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
can find out how your local schools have performed by logging onto our | :14:47. | :14:57. | |
websites. Today the jury heard that a man | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
fired eight gunshots at a group of Albanian men in the street hn Hove | :15:05. | :15:07. | |
street and then shouted, I'l going to kill you all. Edmund Nel` is on | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
trial for the murder of scaffolder Xhem Krasniqi last May. Our Home | :15:12. | :15:14. | |
Affairs Reporter Rebecca Williams has the details. Edmund Nella opened | :15:15. | :15:24. | |
fire on a group of Albanian men that he knew last summer. He is `lleged | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
to have murdered scaffolder Xhem Krasniqi who had been living with | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
his family in Kent. Today the court heard the defendant fired ehght | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
shots at the three Albanian men as they got out of their car. The jury | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
was told he shouted, I am going to kill you all. As the fatal shot was | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
fired at a group of people gathered around to comfort the man who later | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
died. In court today his brother who was at the scene has been ghven | :15:53. | :15:59. | |
evidence. `` giving evidencd. He said, he finished all the btllets in | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
a revolver and then I saw hhm put more in. My brother was on the | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
floor. I held him, I was trxing to talk to him but he would not talk | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
any more. The defence claim that Edmund Nela and the family of the | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
man who died had had a numbdr of 30 disagreements in the past. They | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
suggest that Xhem Krasniqi `nd some of his family went out aren't on | :16:25. | :16:32. | |
that fateful evening to track down Edmund Nela. The case continues | :16:33. | :16:44. | |
This is our top story tonight. The residents of Balcombe in West Sussex | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
have been told that fracking will not be carried out there. The energy | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
company Cuadrilla, which was at the centre of huge protests last summer, | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
says it's ruled out the controversial process of sh`le gas | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
extraction because of the gdology of the area. The company will continue | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
trying to extract oil at its site by other means. | :17:03. | :17:11. | |
Also in tonight's programme. The Canterbury Cathedral girls | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
repairing to end 900 years of male only quires. And it is turnhng wet | :17:17. | :17:24. | |
and windy tomorrow. Join me later for the full forecast. `` choirs. | :17:25. | :17:33. | |
They pioneered guided tours of the battlefields of Northern Fr`nce | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
educating thousands of people about the horrors of the Western Front. | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
Now Tonie and Valmai Holt, from Sandwich in Kent, have been honoured | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
for their work by the French authorities. They've become the | :17:44. | :17:53. | |
first British citizens to rdceive the World War One Centenary Medal, | :17:54. | :17:56. | |
alongside some of the world's leading academics. Peter Whhttlesea | :17:57. | :17:59. | |
has been to the Somme for tonight's special report. The first d`y of the | :18:00. | :18:08. | |
Battle of the Somme recorded the most casualties in the entire war. | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
The French authorities praised historians who uncovered thd real | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
story of the battle. That contribution started more than 5 | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
years ago. They took veterans back to the battlefields. The eydwitness | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
accounts help them plot maps and write guidebooks. We have ndver done | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
what we do to be recognised or honoured in any shape or form. But | :18:34. | :18:39. | |
we have put our hearts and souls into this area. It is very | :18:40. | :18:46. | |
emotional, yes. I am hanging onto it for the moment like a true Brit | :18:47. | :18:57. | |
This song was written by Harry Lauder after he lost his son at the | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
farm. It is one of the personal stories research by the couple. | :19:03. | :19:11. | |
Harry Lauder was devastated by the death of his son. He was his pride | :19:12. | :19:16. | |
and joy. He landed and made the pilgrimage, stopping at the | :19:17. | :19:23. | |
encampments along the way and entertaining the troops, often under | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
fire. According to the French regional tourist chiefs, thdir maps | :19:28. | :19:30. | |
and books have become essential reading. They are important to show | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
the reality of the World War I battlefields. They make it | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
accessible to people. And that has helped families understand what part | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
their relatives played in this battle. | :19:45. | :19:59. | |
There is change in the air `t Canterbury Cathedral. For 900 years | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
the choir at Canterbury Cathedral has been male`only. But that | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
tradition is about to changd. This weekend the Cathedral's first ever | :20:10. | :20:12. | |
girls' choir will perform at an evensong service. John Maguhre has | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
been to see them in rehears`l for their big debut. | :20:16. | :20:28. | |
Paste this way, please. Thex have only been together since November | :20:29. | :20:37. | |
but just listen to this. The girls are just two days away | :20:38. | :20:41. | |
from their first public performance in Canterbury Cathedral, two days | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
away from making history. I think it is a good opportunity and a really | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
special choir. That is why ht is scary, being the first. There are | :20:52. | :20:59. | |
high expectations for us. It is going to be really exciting but | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
there is a lot of pressure. And the male choir has to sing everx day. | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
The girls were not quite have that level of commit and that if they are | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
in any doubt about their responsibilities, just look at this. | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
Already they are being interviewed by the international media. And that | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
is before singing a note in public. It is just 20 years since the first | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
women priests in the church of England. So is this long ovdrdue? I | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
think the sound that we are producing with the boys and a score | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
of girls, they will be diffdrent. No doubt in the future they will all | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
things together at times. Btt you can achieve diversity of musical | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
sounds which we already havd heard developing. The girls have only met | :21:49. | :21:53. | |
a few times but their director believes they have made hugd | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
progress. It was no surprisd to find that they sang very well together | :21:58. | :22:10. | |
indeed. Hopefully they will perform the odd concept and perhaps even a | :22:11. | :22:13. | |
recording in the future. `` con cert. | :22:14. | :22:25. | |
Musically the choir will provide a new sound for Canterbury Cathedral. | :22:26. | :22:33. | |
No mean feat when you consider that choral music here dates back almost | :22:34. | :22:40. | |
1000 years. A beautiful sound. | :22:41. | :22:43. | |
The annual Brighton Speed trials event will go ahead this September. | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
It's been running since 1904 and is thought to be the oldest motor sport | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
event in the UK. But it was cancelled last year, after the death | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
of a competitor in 2012. Thousands of people signed a petition to save | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
the event and this afternoon local councillors have agreed to let it | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
continue. She's the South East's most | :23:05. | :23:07. | |
successful Olympian and now Dame Kelly Holmes has thrown her support | :23:08. | :23:10. | |
behind another Kent athlete who could become our latest Olylpic | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
hero. Skeleton star Lizzy Y`rnold from West Kingsdown is taking part | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
in the final World Cup race of the season in the German resort of | :23:19. | :23:25. | |
Konigssee. Neil Bell is there as she prepares to make her Olympic debut | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
in Sochi next month. On the left is one of the most | :23:33. | :23:35. | |
accomplished Olympians great vision has ever reduced. On the right and | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
Olympic novice about to expdrience her very first game. Lizzie Yarnold | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
has massive potential but D`me Kelly Holmes knows just what it t`kes As | :23:47. | :23:55. | |
well as the excitement, if she can get on the Olympic `fest, how | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
brilliant. But when you get there there is no second chance. Ht is | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
every four years and that is serious. Lizzie Yarnold is well | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
aware that the Winter games will provide a different challenge. She | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
has stood on the podium sevdn times has stood on the podium sevdn times | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
already this season. But now she wants to be Kent's next Olylpic | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
champion. Realising that drdam has champion. Realising that drdam has | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
been a long journey. I never really believed it until the last few | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
years. Being on the podium has given me so much confidence. Lizzhe's | :24:31. | :24:36. | |
success is due to talent and hard graft. Countless hours in the gym | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
and her meticulous attention to detail. Essential in sports where | :24:42. | :24:44. | |
success and failure is meastred in success and failure is meastred in | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
fractions of a second. The trick now is to make it all count on the big | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
occasion. The Olympics is a whole new ball game. The expectathons are | :24:55. | :25:02. | |
increased, the pressure increases. And then the other competitors | :25:03. | :25:05. | |
become more competitive bec`use there is something about those | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
Olympic rings. Lizzie may not yet have tasted that unique Olylpic | :25:11. | :25:15. | |
experience but rest assured she will be nothing to chance. | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
Neil joins us live from Konhgssee. Lizzy Yarnold seems very confident | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
of her chances of success tomorrow? Both Lizzie and her major rhval are | :25:26. | :25:33. | |
both here. Both should be fresh tomorrow. People think it is a five | :25:34. | :25:41. | |
second sprint but it is a fhendishly difficult sport. But Lizzie and her | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
rivals now know that if she can produce her best in all probability | :25:47. | :25:52. | |
that will be good enough for victory. And that is the drdam for | :25:53. | :25:59. | |
every competitor. We will be following that vdry | :26:00. | :26:04. | |
closely. We are also followhng the weather very closely! It is not | :26:05. | :26:05. | |
looking good for the next fdw days. looking good | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
Saturday is not too bad but everything else is looking pretty | :26:12. | :26:18. | |
wet and windy. We had some rain first thing this morning but by the | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
afternoon we had some sunshhne and it was quite a pleasant aftdrnoon. | :26:23. | :26:28. | |
The wind eased off a little bit as well. Tonight we do stay drx but | :26:29. | :26:35. | |
this is what is heading our way by the early hours of tomorrow morning. | :26:36. | :26:42. | |
Tonight temperatures fall lhke a stone. Some frost possible hn more | :26:43. | :26:50. | |
rural spots. So initially dry as we start the day tomorrow but turning | :26:51. | :26:55. | |
wet and staying pretty cold throughout the day as well. Plenty | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
of cloud around initially btt very quickly we start to see the rain. | :27:00. | :27:06. | |
Not particularly heavy but just quite persistent. Temperatures | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
taking their time to rise for much of the day tomorrow. Eventu`lly for | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
the end of the afternoon thdy rise a little bit to around seven or eight | :27:16. | :27:24. | |
degrees. For tomorrow night it stays wet and temperatures will bd pretty | :27:25. | :27:28. | |
mild, dropping to around fotr or five degrees. Some relatively mild | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
as we start Saturday and actually for Saturday until late aftdrnoon it | :27:34. | :27:39. | |
is mostly dry. Perhaps not especially bright but temperatures | :27:40. | :27:44. | |
around eight or nine degrees. But it stays wet into Sunday as well. For | :27:45. | :27:53. | |
Sunday we expect gale force wind gusting 40 or 50 miles an hour | :27:54. | :28:03. | |
widely. It turns very wet and windy. Feeling much colder. It rem`ins | :28:04. | :28:09. | |
unsettled into the next week as well. | :28:10. | :28:15. | |
We will keep an eye on that. I will be back with the latest news. Hope | :28:16. | :28:20. | |
you can join us then. Goodbxe. | :28:21. | :28:24. |
