Morning, I'm Ricky

and this is Newsround.

0:00:080:00:09

Loads to come this morning -

the show is packed!

0:00:090:00:14

One of the coldest walks

to school in the world.

0:00:140:00:17

An amazing underwater discovery.

0:00:170:00:19

A flying machine with a difference.

0:00:190:00:26

First though - if you're in Scotland

or parts of Northern England,

0:00:320:00:35

you may need to be extra careful

on your way to school this morning.

0:00:350:00:40

There's still some snow around.

0:00:400:00:43

And gale force winds

and heavy rain are affecting

0:00:430:00:45

large parts of the UK -

but weather conditions are getting

0:00:450:00:48

a little better with things expected

to calm down later this morning.

0:00:480:00:56

If you're walking to school

in the cold and wind this morning,

0:00:570:01:00

spare a thought for the children

who live in this Siberian village.

0:01:000:01:03

While it's pretty nippy

here in the UK here it's nothing

0:01:030:01:06

compared to over there.

0:01:060:01:07

The people who live

in Oymyakon call it

0:01:070:01:09

"the coldest village on earth".

0:01:090:01:10

And they might just be right -

this week temperatures there have

0:01:100:01:17

dropped to minus 62.

0:01:170:01:19

That's still a bit toastier

than their record low -

0:01:190:01:21

five years ago it dropped even

further to minus 72.

0:01:210:01:23

Brrrr!

0:01:230:01:32

Next, bad news for tennis fans.

0:01:330:01:34

British number one Johanna Konta

suffered a shock defeat

0:01:340:01:36

at the Australian Open.

0:01:360:01:38

Johanna lost to world number

123 Bernarda Pera in

0:01:380:01:40

the second round overnight.

0:01:400:01:41

The American won in straight sets

to claim her second win ever

0:01:410:01:44

at a Grand Slam tournament.

0:01:440:01:45

It a bit frustrating,

but also, I am still taking

0:01:450:01:48

good stuff from this.

0:01:480:01:49

I don't feel by any

means like it's a

0:01:490:01:57

massive catastrophe.

0:01:570:01:58

Obviously, I play every

event to be there till

0:01:580:02:04

the end, so I definitely don't

want to be going home this early.

0:02:040:02:08

In the FA Cup, Chelsea were pushed

to extra time and penalties

0:02:080:02:13

in their FA Cup third round replay

at home to Norwich.

0:02:130:02:16

It had finished 1-1 in normal time.

0:02:160:02:18

But Antonio Conte's side eventually

won the shoot-out 5-3.

0:02:180:02:20

Eden Hazard scored the winning

penalty after his side were reduced

0:02:200:02:22

to nine men in extra time.

0:02:220:02:24

Chelsea face Newcastle

in the next round.

0:02:240:02:32

The shock of the night though came

at League One side Wigan.

0:02:340:02:37

They thrashed Premier League

side Bournemouth 3-0.

0:02:370:02:39

It means they'll now face West Ham

in the fourth round.

0:02:390:02:41

Now, from high in the sky

to deep in the ocean.

0:02:410:02:44

Fancy a dip?

0:02:440:02:45

Well you might need to get your

flippers on for this next one,

0:02:450:02:48

and you'll definitely need to be

able to hold your breath

0:02:480:02:51

for a really long time.

0:02:510:02:52

Because divers have made an exciting

discovery in the sea off

0:02:520:02:55

the coast of Mexico.

0:02:550:02:56

Here's more.

0:02:560:02:59

This isn't just any

old underwater cave.

0:02:590:03:01

Oh no, this is the longest

underwater cave in the world.

0:03:010:03:04

A group of divers discovered

it in Mexico and, it's

0:03:040:03:06

over 200 miles long.

0:03:060:03:07

That's the same distance

from London to Paris.

0:03:070:03:09

At the bottom of the cave,

they found pots and relics

0:03:090:03:17

belonging to Mayan people,

who lived in Mexico over

0:03:240:03:26

a thousand years ago.

0:03:260:03:27

They hope this discovery will help

them to understand more of what life

0:03:270:03:30

was like for the Mayans.

0:03:300:03:38

They were collecting water samples

for a re-search project, but over

0:03:440:03:53

the cause of the day some penguins

checked out their work. Look at this

0:03:530:03:58

cheeky one! If you are a fan of

penguins, guess what Newsround has a

0:03:580:04:06

great Penguin quiz.

0:04:060:04:11

Now, did any of you have a bath last

night or maybe this morning?

0:04:110:04:18

Well, we bet you didn't do this -

Don't try this at home!

0:04:180:04:21

Bathtubs are just

for bathing, right?

0:04:210:04:23

Wrong!

0:04:230:04:24

People have known to race them

in the past, some more

0:04:240:04:26

successfully than others.

0:04:260:04:27

Oh dear, but now these brothers have

made themselves a flying bath tub.

0:04:270:04:30

Wait, what?

0:04:300:04:31

Yes.

0:04:310:04:32

You've heard me right, they have

built themselves a flying bath tub.

0:04:320:04:35

It uses the same technologies that

drones used to get airborne,

0:04:350:04:38

but obviously, propellers are a bit

bigger to get this

0:04:380:04:40

monstrosity off the ground.

0:04:400:04:41

So, how long does it take

to build a flying bath tub?

0:04:410:04:44

Two weeks apparently.

0:04:440:04:52

Not bad really when you consider it

took mankind thousands of years

0:04:550:04:58

to build the first plane.

0:04:580:04:59

The German government

approved the project, but,

0:04:590:05:01

they did ban them from going any

higher than 30 metres in the air.

0:05:010:05:04

So, it's unlikely they will be

replacing claims any time soon.

0:05:040:05:07

Shame, really.

0:05:070:05:15

Finally, animal rescuers in Scotland

have been busy helping this

0:05:190:05:21

little hedgehog get better

with a spot of swimming.

0:05:210:05:23

It was found in the Scottish

Highlands and couldn't

0:05:230:05:25

use its back legs.

0:05:250:05:27

So staff at an SSPCA rescue

centre ran him a bath,

0:05:270:05:29

which meant he could slowly

build his muscles back up.

0:05:290:05:32

He's been named Phelps,

after the famous American swimmer.

0:05:320:05:34

Just enough time to tell

you to head Newsround online.

0:05:340:05:36

And if you've ever wondered

what it's like to fly,

0:05:360:05:39

check out the world paragliding

championships - amazing!

0:05:390:05:40

Plus have a go at our

quiz of the week.

0:05:400:05:44

This time it's all about gadgets.

0:05:440:05:48

Cheers for watching.

0:05:480:05:49

Martin's back this afternoon.

0:05:490:05:52

Have a great day at school.

0:05:520:05:53

See you soon.
