airlines between 1.5 billion and 6.2 billion in 2025 each and every year. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
This deal is voluntary. It is very important to remember. It does | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
become compulsory not until 2027, with some countries with the airline | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
sectors. Let's stay with this. Femke de Jong, the EU policy | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
Director at Carbon Market Watch, Great to have you with us. This has | :00:19. | :00:30. | |
been a long time coming, right? So many will say. When you look at the | :00:31. | :00:35. | |
grand scheme of it all, the bigger picture, 2%, that is what airlines | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
contribute, 2% the man-made CO2 emissions, that doesn't sound like a | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
lot, does it? Well, it depends on how you look at it. At this moment, | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
the aviation sector is one of the top ten global carbon polluters, | :00:52. | :00:59. | |
emitting more CO2 per year than the 129 lowest emitting countries. Its | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
emissions are set to quadruple in the coming decades, so it is a | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
problem that needs to be tackled, and we need... OK, great, but this | :01:07. | :01:16. | |
deal, is it the right deal, it is interesting. At the moment it is | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
only voluntary up until 2027, then it becomes mandatory. But correct me | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
if I'm wrong, it says it becomes mandatory for the countries with the | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
big airline sectors. What does that mean, a country with a big airline | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
sector? Well, it means that from the year 2021, up to over 60 countries | :01:36. | :01:45. | |
have committed to take part in this deal to curb aviation's climate | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
impact. This includes countries like the UK, the United States, but also | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
China, for example. What it does not do is represent a global scheme. So | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
it started off carbon neutral for 2020, it will not be reached because | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
it only covers 80% of aviation's emissions growth. What about | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
shipping? The shipping industry. Is there a similar deal in place? I | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
mean, talks about the shipping industry, all of those cargo ships | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
and carriers an uproarious, apparently, for emissions and | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
polluting -- note aureus. It is true that the emissions industry is one | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
of the sectors which have not been faced with binding carbon cuts, and | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
the same applies indeed to aviation. So far, aviation's emissions have | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
not been tackled by any global deal. The aviation sector operates in a | :02:41. | :02:47. | |
world where they do not pay fuel taxes, it is good that we start | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
addressing this problem and the deal yesterday is just the first step in | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
effect in order for us to limit global warming to levels that are | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
safe much more needs to be done. Thank you very much, we appreciate | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
your time, thank you for joining us from Brussels. Good to see that the | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
airline industry has got together and done something, maybe the | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
shipping industry needs to do the same, that's all I'm saying. | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
Voluntary until 2027, that's all I'm saying. | :03:17. | :03:18. | |
Shortly after currency markets opened in Asia on Friday, | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
the pound lost as much as 6.1% in two minutes. | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
It was the currency's lowest level since May 1985, | :03:24. | :03:25. | |
and the biggest intraday drop against the dollar since its plunge | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
in the wake of the UK's vote to leave the EU. | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
They are talking about a flash crash. What happened over there | :03:31. | :03:45. | |
during this trading session? Was it big fat thumbs? I'm not sure. That | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
was the initial guess among the traders here, and that is back | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
around 7am local time, just after midnight local time, the Stirling | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
started the plunge, they wondered if it was just a human error, also | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
known as a fat finger, because there was no obvious reason it could have | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
triggered a sell-off. But then it seemed like the plunge started | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
shortly after the Financial Times published an online article about | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
the French president talking about tough negotiations ahead of Brexit. | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
What happened was, a lot of banks have their computers set up to react | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
to certain keywords, and it seems like this FT article has triggered a | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
sell-off. It came as a huge surprise to many traders here in Asia. Thank | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
you, we appreciate the update, we will talk to you soon. We are asking | :04:36. | :04:44. | |
her if she can talk to the traders and get the pound up, I want it at a | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
record high! We will have more on that story a little later on with | :04:50. | :04:50. | |
our guest. Samsung Electronics says its third | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
quarter profits will be better than expected, | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
despite the damaging recall of its flagship Note 7 smartphones | :04:55. | :05:01. | |
over exploding batteries. Samsung says it probably made | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
profits of $7 billion in the three It releases full results | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
at the end of the month. Twitter shares have continued | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
to plunge after a report cast doubt The tech website Recode reported | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
that Google and Disney would not bid for the social network - | :05:14. | :05:22. | |
and that Apple was unlikely Cloud software maker Sales Force has | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
also been named, but has yet And the photo-sharing app Snapchat's | :05:26. | :05:35. | |
parent company is working on an initial public offering that | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
could value the company The Wall Street Journal is reporting | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
that Snap Inc is looking to sell What a success story. It's for the | :05:47. | :06:04. | |
young ones, actually! Let's be frank, let's be frank Viktoria | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
Komova on. At least I have an account! You've got to learn how to | :06:08. | :06:15. | |
use it now. Check out the Business Live page, a great site updated all | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
the time. Another reminder of Deutsche Bank, we have been talking | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
about but the past couple of weeks, a lot of worries, the IMF and global | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
organisations are saying it is the most dangerous bank in the world, | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
but we are saying there is no Lehmann Brothers moment. The | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
officials are trying to reduce that $14 billion fine, talking about | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
going down to about 5 million. -- 5 billion. But Jean-Claude Junker says | :06:45. | :06:51. | |
that Germany is not going to let this bank fail, it is too big to | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
fail and Beowulf Dublin. It's worth saying that the share price has | :06:56. | :07:03. | |
recovered yet again. We saw some big falls last week, it is recovered, | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
there is confident it is being shored up, although there are | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
rumours swirling. Let checking with the stock markets. The pound briefly | :07:17. | :07:24. | |
and mysteriously plummeted to fresh lows in early trading. Amid this, | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
persistent concerns about Britain's exit from the EU. The McKay in Japan | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
is down about 39 points at the end of the session, it followed a | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
turbulence session on Wall Street as well. European trade has been open | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
about 40 minutes, and of course everyone is keeping an eye on the | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
pound and seeing what is going on, the pound versus the dollar. We have | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
got some tweets, too. I will cover them during the rest of the | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
programme, keep tweeting. Let's talk to the bloke with the red races. -- | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
red braces. Joining us is Justin | :08:01. | :08:01. | |
Urquhart-Stewart, co-founder and director of Seven Investment | :08:02. | :08:03. | |
Management. We normally talk about markets, can | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
we talk about a flash crash, this being in Asian trade with the pound | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
dropping. Let's explain to those who don't typically follow it, how does | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
this work? You have got various levels of foreign exchange trading, | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
a lot of it is done manually with individuals carrying out raids, but | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
the majority of these is carried out automatically, so they will have | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
programme trades operating foreign exchange, they will have | :08:32. | :08:33. | |
institutions doing their trading, there is a lot of background noise | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
going on. And as you were hearing just now, some of those trades will | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
react automatically, sometimes the words being said, the numbers being | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
breached, and an automatic trigger. In this case, it might be a French | :08:47. | :08:52. | |
swearword coming out and somebody reacts to what the French are saying | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
about the British and that reacts on the pound, that can happen, but | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
these should have brakes on them as well, they can only go so far. It | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
shouldn't have eight trigger effect like dominoes. Where we actually do | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
find out what happened here, it will be interesting, wasn't a human | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
reaction, a fat finger, somebody got the trade romcom or was it an | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
automated trade that carried on other automated trades with it. It | :09:18. | :09:26. | |
is worth saying that any automated system is being initially inputted | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
by people, and so what are the trigger points, for example, that | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
could trigger an automatic system to keep falling down? Are they looking | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
for words in the media, for example? Could it be our full but we are | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
talking about Brexit? We could actually be talking it down, is that | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
possible? What you do is you build an algorithm and that will be built | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
to react to certain things, normally it will be numbers coming through. | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
But it particular figures, if it goes below a certain level, but now | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
developments are going on, it react to news and particular words. The | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
markets are changing so rapidly now. It is not just mathematical, you | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
have designed it so it is reacting not quite do emotions but there are | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
keywords coming up it will have an impact. Smart machines, interesting. | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
So if I read that the UK economy would grow 10% next year, would that | :10:20. | :10:29. | |
help the pound go up? No. Still to come... | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
Our economics correspondent Andrew Walker will be here to talk | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
Could this be the data that cements the timing of the next rate | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
You're with Business Live from BBC News. | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
The reason we ask is because confidence among UK | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
businesses has returned to pretty much the level it was at before | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
the decision to leave the European Union. | :10:51. | :10:51. | |
Why did you say it like that? To keep them interested here in the UK! | :10:52. | :10:58. | |
And it's having a big impact on the number of staff that firms | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
But what about how much they're prepared to pay them? | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
Our business correspondent Theo Leggett has the answers. | :11:06. | :11:16. | |
The recruitment and employment in the Reg on have put out a report | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
saying that in September the number of permanent and temporary staff | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
taken on by companies have increased for the second successive month. | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
Back in June and July there was a dip around the time of the | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
referendum, now it is picking up again. Demand for Stav continues to | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
rise, biggest in the engineering sector. For permanent and temporary | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
staff it was in the hotel and catering sector and the | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
Confederation says it shows that businesses are getting over the | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
initial shock of the referendum result, shrugging it off. But there | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
are some important caveats. For a start, permanent hiring has not | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
increased in London and the Confederation says it is probably | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
because of concerns over what the EU result will mean for the financial | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
sector in particular, whether Pat Sporting rights are kept and whether | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
any business will move abroad. It says the number of people available | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
to fill roles is going down, which is a point of concern. | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
Britain looks like it is looking at a hard exit | :12:14. | :12:28. | |
from the EU, Theresa May not looking bad she will accept the free | :12:29. | :12:30. | |
movement of Labour. Could the immigration crackdown, if | :12:31. | :12:32. | |
we see one, lead to staff shortages? The recruitment and employment | :12:33. | :12:34. | |
Confederation seems to think it is a concern, they say, we urge the | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
Government to be mindful of talent shortages faced by many UK employee | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
is. Despite some of the rhetoric at the Conservative Party conference, | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
we will continue to need workers from overseas in a range of sectors | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
from engineering to health care. It says they need a rational debate | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
between business and Government about a sensible immigration policy. | :12:55. | :13:01. | |
Thank you very much. Can we quickly get on the screen the Business Live | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
page? Look at that, incredible, from the Bloomberg terminal, it shows the | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
drop, the fall off the cliff of the value of the pound during that Asian | :13:13. | :13:13. | |
trading session. The world's first aviation | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
pollution agreement has been approved | :13:18. | :13:34. | |
by the UN agency, ICAO. The deal is expected to limit | :13:35. | :13:35. | |
the growth of emissions A quick look at how | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
markets are faring. The European trading session has | :13:39. | :13:45. | |
opened and unsurprisingly the FTSE 100 rising yet again. Remember about | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
75% of the companies listed on the FTSE 100 are pretty international in | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
focus which means any fall in the value of sterling improves their | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
profit margins for anything coming in from America or Europe, anything | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
that they make abroad. That is why we often see this inverse | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
relationship between the value of the FTSE 100 going up and the value | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
of sterling going down, particularly against the dollar. | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
It's been a terrible week for sterling - | :14:17. | :14:18. | |
Globalisation has been on the agenda too this week, | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
with discussions about how increasing amounts of international | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
economic integration have affected incomes around the world. | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
Plus there's much to talk about on US jobs, | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
Let's get the Inside Track on all this with our economics | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
Good to see you. Happy Friday! | :14:40. | :14:50. | |
Let's start with the US jobs. Again, leaning towards whether we will get | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
an interest rate rise, will display into that? | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
Absolutely, we are expecting a figure of around 170,000 additional | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
jobs created in the last month in the United States economy. It has a | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
growing Labour force so you need to have a certain number of new jobs | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
created just to keep up with that but 170,000 would be better than | :15:13. | :15:20. | |
that keeping up level. So, yes, it would tend to play into the | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
possibility of bringing a rate rise, perhaps in December, which is what | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
most people in the financial world seemed to be expecting. Worth | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
remembering the other element is inflation, we have really low | :15:34. | :15:36. | |
inflation in the UK but the US is still below the fed's target but | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
still significantly higher at if you take out a volatile food and energy | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
prices it is getting towards the 2% target, 1.7% of the most recent | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
figure. The Fed has eye on inflationary pressures than the Bank | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
of England or the ECB. Not bad given what we are seeing in | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
Europe and here, and inflation rate closer to 2%, the ideal mark. | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
In the bulk of the developed world, inflation is seen as too low. In the | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
UK, the Eurozone and Japan. So, yes, I imagine we are going to move on to | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
talk about sterling doctor-macro I see what you are doing there! | :16:15. | :16:23. | |
Aren't you supposed to do that bit?! We will share some of these tweets, | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
what is the impact? It highlights the pros and cons of the week are | :16:28. | :16:34. | |
valued currency. Emil Sorheim, with an upcoming trip to the UK to | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
celebrate my birthday at the Royal Opera House, the weak pound is a | :16:38. | :16:41. | |
wonderful birthday gift! In terms of the link with inflation, | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
likely to see a boost in inflation if sterling remains weak. | :16:48. | :16:54. | |
First of all, happy birthday a meal! Normally a depreciation in the | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
currency is something you welcome on some grounds but worry about the | :16:58. | :17:00. | |
inflationary impact but these are not normal times as we have said so | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
many times. For the Bank of England, yes, there is that welcome aspect | :17:06. | :17:09. | |
which means it will push inflation up somewhere. There is a possibility | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
that if it is a very large ball and it has been substantial already, it | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
might push it up too far, through the Bank of England's target, and | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
the forecast from the International monetary fund this week suggested it | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
could get as high as 2.5%, which would be above the Bank of England's | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
target but not so much to be a huge problem in itself. The issues would | :17:32. | :17:43. | |
be if it went much further and obviously the question of whether | :17:44. | :17:45. | |
pay will keep up with any surge in inflation and whether it will affect | :17:46. | :17:47. | |
people's real incomes after inflation at first it. | :17:48. | :17:49. | |
Another treat here from Joe Richards who is talking about the impact in | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
terms of what they have to buy in stock, the goods that they need to | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
use and where they come from, and it has a big effect there. | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
For businesses that are importing a lot of components, raw materials, | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
surprise, yes, there is a direct affect on them. It will either be | :18:07. | :18:11. | |
reflected in what they charge their consumers, they may pass it on, or | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
maybe absorb it in lower profit margins, it is a decision they will | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
have to take. Some businesses I think will look at the situation of | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
demand for their goods and services and think, maybe we had better take | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
the hit in the margins and hope we will be able to recover the profit | :18:29. | :18:30. | |
later on. Bobby was around the world, -- for | :18:31. | :18:38. | |
viewers around the world, the UK imports more than it exports? | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
We have quite a large deficit in international trade, and one of the | :18:43. | :18:48. | |
hopes is the depreciation of sterling will make imports less | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
competitive, exports more competitive, and might reduce the | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
deficit over time. We will have to start making more | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
stuff! Manufacturers in particular are | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
sensitive to changes in the exchange rate so it may be helpful for them. | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
Andrew, always a pleasure, have a great weekend. | :19:06. | :19:07. | |

Justin Urquhart-Stewart is joining us again. | :19:52. | :19:54. | |
You liked this story, do you drink a lot of bottled water? | :19:55. | :20:00. | |
I don't, because I think it is wasteful and we have good sanitation | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
here, but not many people agree with me! | :20:05. | :20:07. | |
But London water is supposed to pass through the body of about nine | :20:08. | :20:10. | |
people! So long as they keep testing... | :20:11. | :20:17. | |
Tell us about the story? An article in the Guardian which takes the | :20:18. | :20:26. | |
industry, worth $157 billion, they reckon by 2020 it will grow to 280 | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
billion, bottled water. All the different types, the different | :20:32. | :20:40. | |
names, there is one called Ugly, but some of the descriptions they come | :20:41. | :20:47. | |
up with, Coca-Cola's Smart Water, it just comes from Northumberland! Do | :20:48. | :20:56. | |
you remember Peckham Spring in Only Fools And Horses? It was a spoof on | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
bottled water, they made it up as coming from Peckham. But the idea of | :21:01. | :21:08. | |
this Smart Water, it is vapour distilled and Coca Cola says it is | :21:09. | :21:19. | |
inspired by clouds! You can get water from Fiji, or | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
Peckham Spring is! This started with our fixation in | :21:24. | :21:30. | |
the continent with Perrier, everyone wanted it but at least it had | :21:31. | :21:37. | |
bubbles, the still waters are all virtually the same but you pay a | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
premium price. Because it is Friday, can we skip | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
the president Obama thing and go with Indigo airlines, a Budget | :21:47. | :21:52. | |
carrier based in India, and it is the first time we have heard about | :21:53. | :21:59. | |
an airline doing this, childfree zones? You have kids, did you fly | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
with them? No! | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
Like the Royal family, you don't fly together! | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
It is a lovely idea, why hasn't anyone done it before? Does it mean | :22:12. | :22:15. | |
on the plane you are separated from the child, or you have to leave the | :22:16. | :22:18. | |
child behind?! You leave the child on the plane but | :22:19. | :22:25. | |
it is only a few rows behind! Those trolleys with the food in, you | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
could get several children on those trolleys, they would be wheeled back | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
down as you leave the plane! Your child, Sir? | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
Airlines, are you listening to this?! | :22:40. | :22:45. | |
As long as you get the right one on the way out! | :22:46. | :22:47. | |
Hello, cloud amounts may vary from one day to the next but the general | :22:48. | :23:03. | |
weather pattern really isn't going to change much in the next few days. | :23:04. | :23:07. | |
Most of the thick rain bearing cloud comes from the Atlantic but it just | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
stops to the west of us, it is getting blocked by a huge area of | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
high pressure centred over Scandinavia which is influencing our | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
weather. We are drawing in an easterly breeze, perhaps not as | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
strong as it has been, a lot of cloud on that breeze, maybe more | :23:25. | :23:34. | |
sunshine as we head into the afternoon but equally one or two | :23:35. | :23:36. | |
showers as well. After a frosty start with patchy fog, the best of | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
the sunshine across northern Scotland. It will be rather cloudy | :23:40. | :23:41. | |
for Northern Ireland, as it will be for southern Scotland, but for most | :23:42. | :23:44. | |
of England and Wales and little sunshine at times, the best of that | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
perhaps across north-west England and north-west Wales. One or two | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
showers dotted about, especially in eastern England. The easterly breeze | :23:54. | :24:01. | |
eases overnight, we could see more breaks in the crowd, showers across | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
East Anglia and the south-east of England, which could be on the sharp | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
side by the coast by the end of the night. Most places double figured, | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
Scotland standing out as being somewhat colder with patchy across | :24:14. | :24:18. | |
in the countryside. Early mist and fog lifting, then a little more | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
sunshine on offer on Saturday, cloud coming and going, most of the | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
showers across East Anglia and the south-east of England, where the | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
breeze will be fresher. But otherwise temperature is very | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
similar to date. In the sunshine, not feeling too bad. Similar on | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
Sunday, not much changing, showers chiefly for East Anglia and the | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
south-east of England, a lot of dry weather and sunshine at times. Much | :24:43. | :24:45. | |
more dangerous weather, though, on the other side of the Atlantic. This | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
is Hurricane Matthew, Haiti at the beginning of the week moving | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
northwards, a direct hit at Freeport in the Bahamas, now sitting just off | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
the coast of Florida. Slightly but still a major hurricane, category | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
three. A lot of rain with it, eight to 12 inches of rain, storm surge | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
and hurricane force winds across the coast of Florida, eventually heading | :25:12. | :25:13. | |
towards the Carolinas by the weekend. | :25:14. | :25:17. |
