I'm Jenny, live with your last Newsround update this Sunday. | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
First, high winds and flash floods are expected today as the remains | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
These pictures show the chaos she caused in the Caribbean last week. | :00:14. | :00:22. | |
Bertha has weakened since then, but volunteers from The Red Cross | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
are on standby here in the UK, in case homes need to be evacuated. | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
Last week, over 4000 miles away across the other side of the | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
Atlantic Ocean, Hurricane Bertha formed just to the east of Florida, | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
Since then, it has been moving quickly across the Atlantic but | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
The area of moisture that has been left over from what was left | :00:44. | :00:50. | |
of Bertha is pouring in an area of low pressure that will bring us | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
For most of us it won't be too problematic. | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
However, the wind will be pretty heavy at | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
times and that could lead to puddles out on the roads and we could have | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
a little bit of surface water flooding, but other areas will just | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
Overnight tonight, the strongest winds will move to | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
the south coast of England to northern England and eventually | :01:11. | :01:12. | |
reaching the eastern areas of Scotland, so it'll be a windy start | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
to the day across parts of the north-east as we head into Monday. | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
Elsewhere, further south, a day of sunshine and showers, | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
so the remnants of Hurricane Bertha are affecting our weather today | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
but for most of us we don't need to be too concerned. | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
There will just be some big puddles and some windy weather as well. | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
And you've being letting us know what's happening, weather wise, | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
where you are: Keiti in Kent said: My gutters and back porch are | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
leaking. The rain and thunder is really loud, and my dog is very wet. | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
Poppy in York was at a sleepover when the rain hit. She said - It was | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
coming so fast and hitting the ground really hard. The house nearly | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
flooded. Billy, who's on holiday in Skegness said- We weren't expecting | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
the rain and wind on our holiday, I can't wait for the sun to come out. | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
To Sport now - you'll have heard of the | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
Olympic Games, and the Commonwealth Games, but have you ever heard | :02:06. | :02:07. | |
They first took place over 30 years ago and have since gone | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
on to become a hugely inspirational and life saving event. | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
I went along to the opening day to find out | :02:15. | :02:25. | |
This weekend more than 2500 people and 750 athletes have come here to | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
Bolton for the British Transplant Games. | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
The event takes place every year and the aim is to encourage people | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
who have had life-saving transplants to help get their fitness back | :02:38. | :02:46. | |
Meet 11-year-old Charlie. She was born with an illness which | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
And two years ago she had to have a kidney transplant, donated from her | :02:51. | :03:00. | |
And today she is competing in the games, hoping to inspire more | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
Why do you think it is so important that 750 people come | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
It is really important that kids like me come to the games, | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
because more people find out more about organ transplant. | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
This is the third time I have come to the | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
Transplant Games and competed in the obstacle race, and it was so great. | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
Speaking to Charlie, you can tell the games have been not | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
only inspirational, but lots of fun as well. | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
It is very much like a mini Olympics. | :03:39. | :03:48. | |
Nearly 8,000 people on the waiting list, | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
Transplant Games is among one of the events which is fantastic to | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
raise awareness to the public that transplants are | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
The kids here have had a brilliant day, taken part | :03:57. | :04:02. | |
in races, making new friends and hopefully even saving some lives. | :04:03. | :04:17. | |
Last night saw the start of BBC1's brand new gymnastics TV show, | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
Tumble. In front of judges like Olympic medallist, Louis Smith, ten | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
celebrities and their professional partners took to the hoops and floor | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
to perform routines. Stars included Sarah from Girls Aloud, boxer Carl | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
Frock, and CBBC Woolfblood's Bobby Lockwood. | :04:30. | :04:49. | |
I felt quite emotional here. It was a beautiful routine. | :04:50. | :04:57. | |
Venice is famous for being built on water, but from next year, large | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
cruise liners will be banned from the centre of the Italian city. | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
Right now, huge ships can sail just hundreds of metres from the historic | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
area of St Mark's Square, but the ban is being enforced to protect the | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
buildings' foundations from pollution and vibrations from the | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
ships. From next year, only small ships will be allowed to sail there. | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
Now, the football season has only just begun, but there's already a | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
trophy up for grabs later today. The community shield takes place at | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
Wembley later this afternoon, with FA Cup champions Arsenal taking on | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
Premier League winners Manchester City. | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
It is not a friendly match, it is an important game against an important | :05:36. | :05:44. | |
team of Arsenal. The proteins it is a cheque of how good they are, how | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
physically strong they are unprepared they are. | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
That's all from us, but head to the Newsround website to find out all | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
about the supermoon appearing in the skies tonight. I'm back bright and | :05:57. | :06:00. |
