Good evening. Rescuers have tonight suspended their search for a man | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
swept out to sea after celebrating the New Year near Porthleven. The | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
operation will resume tomorrow. The 27`year`old was with friends at Loe | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
Bar Beach in the early hours of this morning when he disappeared. They'd | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
been on holiday in the area. It's the second such incident in 24 | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
hours. A woman died yesterday after being pulled from the water near | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
Croyde. Police are warning people not to enter the sea in bad weather. | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
Leigh Rundle reports from Porthleven. What more memorable spot | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
to see in the New Year than this remote Cornish beach? But in | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
darkness, the group who were holidaying near by perhaps failed to | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
spot the warning signs. Coastguard teams have spent the day and most of | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
last night scouring Porthleven for any sign of the missing man. They | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
had gone into the sea only a very shallow distance. Unfortunately one | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
of them appears to have lost their footing and ended up in the sea. The | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
conditions you can see behind us are atrocious. Last night we were faced | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
with driving rain, sea conditions as they are now, very rough and five or | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
six metre swells. As conditions worsened, a search and rescue | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
helicopter from Culdrose was recalled, along with two lifeboats. | :01:24. | :01:30. | |
Primarily, we were relying on the coastguards on foot, walking the | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
shoreline, walking the cliff paths to try and spot the man in the | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
water. The 27`year`old man from Surrey is the second victim of | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
treacherous seas in 24 hours. While stormy conditions remain, police and | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
rescue services are urging anyone visiting the region's beaches to | :01:47. | :01:55. | |
take extra care. With poor conditions continuing today a | :01:56. | :01:57. | |
kayaker has been rescued from the River Dart and firefighters have | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
helped people stuck in cars in Honiton and South Brent. John | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
Henderson reports. The east Devon village of Feniton on full alert | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
this morning. So far there have been no reports of homes being flooded. | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
The River Dart in fall spate, a kayaker was stranded on an island in | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
the middle of a swollen live near Buckfastleigh. A special rescue team | :02:22. | :02:23. | |
of firefighters from Exeter used throwlines to bring the canoeist to | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
safety. Travel was precarious ` roads were flooded, there were | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
several reports of people having to be rescued from their cars in Devon. | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
There were delays on the railways, with flooding in the Tiverton | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
Parkway area and the track Axminster. Driving rain and heavy | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
seas in Plymouth and more is on the way tonight ` 32 flood warnings and | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
54 flood alerts across the South West, forecasters are predicting | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
strong winds, torrential downpours and further flooding in the coming | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
days. It's being reported in India that a multi`million pound order put | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
in to the Yeovil helicopter manufacturer Agusta Westland has | :02:58. | :03:09. | |
been cancelled. The Government contract for 12 luxury aircraft has | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
been in the balance since allegations surfaced last year that | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
it may have been won through bribery. The company has always | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
denied the claims. Today's sporting fixtures took a battering from the | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
weather. Both Exeter City and Yeovil Town's games were postponed because | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
of waterlogged pitches, but in the Devon derby Plymouth Argyle ran out | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
2`0 winners over Torquay United at Home Park. On`loan striker Caolan | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
Lavery put the Pilgrims ahead on the hour with his third goal for the | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
club. And with five minutes remaining, Lewis Alessandra sealed | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
the win when he was left unmarked. Argyle's third victory in four games | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
sees them move into the top half of the table, while defeat for Torquay | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
means they remain in the relegation zone. The weather continues to | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
dominate the headlines and there's another band of rain on the way. | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
Here's Holly. Hello there, we have some heavy, blustery showers working | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
their way across us tonight. Some quite organised and we have a Met | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
Office yellow warning for rain for the first part of tonight. However, | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
through the early hours the showers will become more scattered. So we | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
start the day tomorrow with some showers from the word go. They are | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
being driven through on blustery wind. But we will see sunny spells. | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
Before cloud thickens and this area of wet and windy weather sweeps in. | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
Thereafter as we head into Friday, we have some strong winds and some | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
squally showers and we have another Met Office yellow warning in force | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
for rain for Friday. And it stays unsettled for the weekend. So with | :04:48. | :04:55. | |
no let up in the weather ` tune in to your BBC local radio breakfast | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
show for the latest travel news. I'm back at 20`to`11 this evening. Bye | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
for now. Hello. It is a New Year but it is | :05:01. | :05:20. | |
the same old weather. Flood warnings are on the rise. The flood line | :05:21. | :05:28. | |
number is on screen if you are at all concerned. Still some rain to | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
come this evening and overnight. Still some heavy bursts. It will | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
push the way towards the east taking the strongest winds with it. It did | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
in temperature across the Highlands. Temperatures are holding up fairly | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
well. Tomorrow, I can offer you a glimpse of brightness. Quite it | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
isn't over getting out and about. Many places staying dry. -- quite a | :05:57. | :06:06. | |
decent day for getting out and about. There will be some long, | :06:07. | :06:08. |
