Hi, I'm Leah. This is Newsround. Here's what coming up in the next | :00:06. | :00:08. | |
five minutes. Wrap up warm, there's more heavy | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
snow on the way. And Laura Robson wins an epic match | :00:11. | :00:19. | |
at the Australian Open. First, if there's not snow on the | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
ground where you are already, could this be what you'll be waking up to | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
tomorrow morning? Forecasters are warning of heavy snow tonight, with | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
a severe weather warning in place for parts of South Wales. They're | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
expecting 10-15 centimetres in places, which could cause problems | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
on the roads. Many parts of the UK have already experienced snow and | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
freezing temperatures this week. More than 90 schools in Norfolk | :00:38. | :00:47. | |
have been given another day off today. Nine-year-old Olly is one of | :00:47. | :00:57. | |
:00:57. | :00:58. | ||
them. It's been really fun off school. Starting to miss it a | :00:58. | :01:05. | |
little bit. We've been up to quite a lot of things. It's been really | :01:05. | :01:11. | |
fun playing with friends and family. I've seen quite a lot of animals | :01:11. | :01:18. | |
and wildlife wandering around our garden. | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
And if you're wondering if it'll snow where you live, you're in luck. | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
We've got a special snow forecast from our BBC weatherman friend, | :01:24. | :01:31. | |
Simon King. We are expecting lots of snow over the UK tomorrow. | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
Another cold night tonight. We'll start to see snow moving into | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
Northern Ireland, into Wales and the south-west of England tomorrow | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
morning. The forecast might be a bit of a headache for your mum and | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
dad there. Might be school closures tomorrow as the snow moves east. | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
There could be a lot of it at the end of the day. Feeling very, very | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
cold. Now to the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
It's built with the same carbon fibre material used in Formula One | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
cars and has been described as the future of flying. But a recent | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
string of safety issues means airlines across the world have | :02:02. | :02:11. | |
decided to stop flying them. Joe's been looking into the problems. The | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
ultra light, ultra green Dreamliner. At a cool �128 million a pop it's | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
the fastest selling commercial aircraft in history. It's makers | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
promised it would use a fifth less fuel, great news for airlines keen | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
to find a cheaper, cleaner way to get us to where we get to go. | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
Newsround got to check it out. But after a string of safety problems | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
the 787's story is not as dreamy as was hoped. Fuel leaks, fires on | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
board, brake and battery problems, even a cracked windscreen, have | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
made airlines stop flying this new plane. A Japanese airline was first | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
yesterday after an emergency landing yesterday. Fortunately no- | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
one was hurt. Airlines around the world have decided to keep their | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
Dreamliners on the ground until they are safe. We are talking about | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
batteries that why overheating on this aeroplane. Once this issue is | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
sorted out, the wiring and the battery issue is fixed, then I have | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
no doubt that the governing bodies will allow this aeroplane to be | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
back in the sky. Flying is one of the safest ways to travel and these | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
problems are only affecting the Dreamliner. It's makers say they | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
are working around the -- its makers say they are working round | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
the clock to get them back in the air safely. | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
US President Barack Obama has laid out his plans to do to more about | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
the thousands of people who are killed in the country every year by | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
guns. The President stood next to children who have written to him | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
asking to do more, after a shooting at a school in Connecticut last | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
month left 26 people dead. He wants to ban some of the most powerful | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
weapons and stop them falling into the hands of criminals. But lots of | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
people in the US believe passionately in their right to own | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
guns and don't want the rules to change. This is our first task as a | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
society - keeping our children safe. This is how we will be judged. And | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
their voices should compel us to change. To keep our children safe. | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
To help prevent mass shootings. To reduce the broader epidemic of gun | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
violence in this country. We'll have a closer look at that | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
story in our bulletin at 6.50pm. Next to the Australian Open tennis | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
in Melbourne, where it's been another great day for the Brits. | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
Laura Robson, who turns 19 on Monday, claimed another big Grand | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
Slam win with an epic late-night win over 2011 Wimbledon champion | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
Petra Kvitova. Laura recovered from 3-0 down to win the final set 11-9, | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
in a match finishing well after midnight local time. Earlier, Andy | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
Murray powered through to the third round in straight sets over | :04:48. | :04:53. |
