I'm Jenny, live with your Sunday morning Newsround update. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
High winds and flash floods are expected today as the remains | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
These pictures show the chaos she caused in the Caribbean last week. | :00:14. | :00:19. | |
Bertha has weakened since then but volunteers from The Red Cross | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
are on standby here in the UK in case homes need to be evacuated.BBC | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
Weather's Chris Fawkes explains where Bertha | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
Sometimes to understand where our weather comes from, | :00:31. | :00:37. | |
This was Hurricane Bertha last week, just to the easr of Florida | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
in the United States, over 4,000 miles away from the British Isles. | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
Since then the hurricane has been drawn into a normal area of low | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
pressure that has been quickly whizzing its way across the Atlantic | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
and the remains of this hurricane, the moist air associated with it, is | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
going to bring in an area of low pressure on Sunday across | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
the British Isles, bringing us some pretty wet and windy weather. | :00:59. | :01:06. | |
This weekend over 7,500 people have made their way to Bolton for the | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
four day sporting extravaganza that is the British Transplant Games. | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
Taking place every year, its aim is to help people who've had | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
life saving transplants get their fitness back by playing sports. | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
Organisers also hope the games will raise awareness | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
I went to the opening day and spoke to 11-year-old Charlie, who had a | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
kidney transplant donated from her grandad, about what it means to her. | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
It is really important that kids like me come to the Transplant | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
Games, because more people find out more about organ transplant. | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
This is the third time I have come to the | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
Transplant Games and competed in the obstacle race and it was so great. | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
Speaking to Charlie, you can tell the games have been not | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
only inspirational, but lots of fun as well. | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
Next, to the story of nine-year-old James from Florida, | :02:00. | :02:01. | |
who's recovering after fighting off an alligator, with his bare hands. | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
James had been riding his bike with his friends, | :02:05. | :02:06. | |
when he decided to go swimming in a dangerous lake near Orlando. | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
He ended up coming face to face with a nine foot long alligator, | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
He's now well on the way to recovery, and has been talking | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
At first I thought someone was playing with me, | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
I reached down to go grab it and I felt its jaw, I felt its teeth. | :02:24. | :02:31. | |
I didn't know what to do, so I immediately reacted | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
Then it was letting go a little, and then finally I had enough strength | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
