:00:11. > :00:17.Hello and welcome to Inside Out from North Lincolnshireshire. This

:00:17. > :00:22.week we tell the story of six-week- old Jack Marshal and his battle

:00:22. > :00:26.against brain cancer. His story proved an inspiration to thousands

:00:26. > :00:36.of ordinary people as well as celebrities and footballers. I love

:00:36. > :00:40.

:00:40. > :00:45.Also, tonight, burning issue - why the Forestry Commission are

:00:45. > :00:50.encouraging woodland owners to cut down trees. Wood fuel is market by

:00:50. > :00:55.which we can actively manage woodlands and produce better-

:00:55. > :00:59.quality timber. And fair weather or foul? We met a

:01:00. > :01:09.man who has set up a network of weather stations across the dales.

:01:10. > :01:18.

:01:18. > :01:22.Yes, we have a reading. It's Now, it must be the worst thing

:01:22. > :01:29.that any parent has to face - watching their child die, but when

:01:29. > :01:32.Tracy and Craze Marshall found out their son had terminal brain cancer,

:01:33. > :01:36.they decided to raise awareness about the issue. This film which

:01:37. > :01:46.some people may find upsetting, follows the family during the last

:01:47. > :01:50.

:01:50. > :01:55.few months of Jack's short but What Jack's come up against over

:01:55. > :02:00.the last 18 months and how he's come every step of the way is just

:02:00. > :02:03.eye opening. Jack is not sat that moaning, moping about things. He's

:02:03. > :02:10.never whingeed about things, so you just have to dust yourself down and

:02:10. > :02:20.move on. I feel proud, and I'm sure Josh feels proud as well. He's

:02:20. > :02:21.

:02:21. > :02:28.amazing, very much braver than me. That's what I think, you know?

:02:28. > :02:35.ten weeks we were told, "That's a really good scan,", we were told,

:02:35. > :02:39."I'm sorry. Your little boy is going to die." There's nothing

:02:39. > :02:45.anybody can do. Good morning, Jackamo. Hiya,

:02:45. > :02:54.gorgeous. It's September, six months since Tracy and Craig were

:02:54. > :03:03.told their son Jack had just a few days to live. Love you. Organised

:03:03. > :03:09.chaos I think is the best way to describe it. You just try and

:03:09. > :03:15.maintain normality as best you can. But, you know, what is normal?

:03:15. > :03:21.is now six. He was just four years old when doctors found a large

:03:21. > :03:24.tumour in his train. I felt sick. I was panicked. I just kept thinking,

:03:24. > :03:31.that's my little boy on the bed in there, and there's nothing that I

:03:31. > :03:38.can do. After ten hours of surgery, the tumour was removed, but the

:03:38. > :03:42.cancer had already spread. operation had gone well. They'd

:03:42. > :03:47.removed as much as they safely felt they could remove, but the disease

:03:47. > :03:52.had seeded elsewhere on his brain and down his spine. You had that

:03:52. > :03:57.feeling of almost elation at the fact that Jack had come out of

:03:57. > :04:04.theatre, but then you had the wave of panic over the fact that if it's

:04:04. > :04:09.spread, then it must be cancerous. It was, and an aggressive form.

:04:09. > :04:15.Jack needed months of chemotherapy followed then by radiotherapy.

:04:15. > :04:21.Every single morning, I woke up, I would say to Jack, "Good morning,

:04:21. > :04:25.Jackamo, how are you this morning?" And every single morning, no matter

:04:25. > :04:30.what he'd been through, he'd say fine, every single day.

:04:30. > :04:35.How is that? Is that all right? the point came when the doctors

:04:35. > :04:38.could do no more. The family chose to look after Jack at home and not

:04:39. > :04:43.at a hospital or hospice. I didn't want him to be in a strange place.

:04:43. > :04:47.I didn't want us to be in a strange place, whether or not it meant me

:04:47. > :04:53.sitting up throughout the night or us doing medicines constantly, then

:04:53. > :04:58.so be it. He was on nearly 40 medicines when we first came home,

:04:58. > :05:01.but you sort of get thrown in the deep end and learn quickly.

:05:01. > :05:05.Although Jack now needs attention around the clock, the daily

:05:05. > :05:11.routines of family life must go on, especially for the couple's other

:05:11. > :05:15.son, Josh. Love you. Love you too. See you later. All right, mate.

:05:15. > :05:22.doesn't want to go to school, not because he doesn't want to be in

:05:22. > :05:28.school, because he just doesn't want to be away from his brother.

:05:28. > :05:31.Ooh! Is the heating on this morning? Each day now follows a

:05:31. > :05:35.familiar pattern. Since we have came home, I have never not slept

:05:35. > :05:40.in the same room with him. This particular arrangement - definitely

:05:40. > :05:48.in the same bed with him since March just so I can make sure he's

:05:48. > :05:54.still breathing OK, he's not been sick. If cancer is the right word

:05:54. > :06:02.for what it does - it's just destructive from everything from

:06:02. > :06:06.your family life to social lives to normal life. When he was first

:06:07. > :06:14.diagnosed, I sat putting makeup on. Craig said, "Why you doing that

:06:14. > :06:19.now?" I said, "When Jack sees me, he's not like, what's going on

:06:19. > :06:23.here? Not that he's going to think that. He was only four, but to me,

:06:24. > :06:28.I needed to be as normal as possible. There are times when I

:06:28. > :06:32.had to kick her out of the room and say to go and get some sleep. I am

:06:32. > :06:36.here. The doctors and nurses are here. We're fine. Go and get some

:06:36. > :06:46.sleep. I have had to force her into it. Then she's gone to get some

:06:46. > :06:47.

:06:47. > :06:51.sleep, but hasn't slept because she's not with Jack. I've got Ben

:06:51. > :06:59.Ten, Sonic. We'll decide on that while I am getting some bits and

:06:59. > :07:09.bobs together. One, two, three. Mind you don't dunk your head on

:07:09. > :07:12.

:07:12. > :07:19.# Glory, glory, Man United # Throughout the treatment, nothing

:07:19. > :07:23.ever affected Jack's love of football, especially Man United.

:07:23. > :07:29.like Rooney the best. It was during these months at home that the

:07:29. > :07:37.family started telling Jack's story on Twitter, wanting to give Jack's

:07:37. > :07:41.brain cancer a public face. I love all my best friends. That's very

:07:41. > :07:47.nice. Among Jack's followers are many Premiere League footballers.

:07:47. > :07:51.saw him on Twitter a few times, but it was more my mum. She made me

:07:51. > :07:56.take notice. My mum followed him closely and said to me, there's a

:07:56. > :08:01.little boy called Jack, and he's got the best smile you've ever seen,

:08:01. > :08:07.so I started to follow him. And a day out with the Wilshires in

:08:07. > :08:11.London and then Jack got to meet his biggest hero. As I had said to

:08:11. > :08:17.Jack, you'll never guess who is stood there. Wayne came into his

:08:17. > :08:24.line of sight, and he was just stood around and Jack had not

:08:24. > :08:31.really said a lot all day, and he went, "Rooney, guess what - I would

:08:31. > :08:35.like to kiss you." So Wayne bent down and Jack kissed him. We've met

:08:35. > :08:40.some amazing people along the way. I'm not talking just celebrities.

:08:40. > :08:43.I'm talking did you's and the me's. You know, we never realised that

:08:43. > :08:47.we'd be able to raise as much awareness as we have with Jack

:08:47. > :08:57.fronting that, leading the way with his smile. I think that might have

:08:57. > :09:01.been a small seizure. The summer has now turned to autumn, and

:09:01. > :09:06.Jack's condition has worsened. Where we are now is a little bit

:09:06. > :09:14.more upsetting for me because three weeks ago, it would have been,

:09:14. > :09:21."Morning, mum", and I'd go, "Morning, Jack," and he'd go,

:09:21. > :09:25."Guess what, mum? I love you!" We'd have a cut, but it's less than that

:09:25. > :09:28.now. Jack is sleeping most of the time, and the family are beginning

:09:28. > :09:33.to prepare for what's to come. bought this one. The reason I

:09:33. > :09:36.bought this one is to wear to Jack's funeral. I want to be proud

:09:36. > :09:41.about Jack. I don't want to fall apart. I don't know what I'll be

:09:41. > :09:46.like at the time. But for now, the daily routine continues, preparing

:09:46. > :09:51.family meals must be fitted in around caring for Jack. I've left

:09:51. > :09:55.him for a little while on his own now while cooking dinner, and

:09:55. > :10:00.that's enough. The family are reluctant to leave Jack for even a

:10:00. > :10:09.moment. Every second is more precious now than ever. To be

:10:09. > :10:19.truthful, I don't really get to lay don't you? Mummy gives the best

:10:19. > :10:19.

:10:19. > :10:23.snuggle. Jack died the next day. I got up

:10:23. > :10:27.this morning. I just thought his eyes didn't look right. He didn't

:10:28. > :10:37.seem like he was there anymore, and his breathing weren't right. As I

:10:38. > :10:43.

:10:43. > :10:49.sat down, I just squeezed him, and I never wanted to believe that he

:10:49. > :10:56.would die - even now, sort of. There's that feeling of disbelief.

:10:56. > :11:01.We have been missing Jack quite a lot because one day we walked past

:11:01. > :11:08.the room, and Jack's bed was there, and Jack's not there - a weird

:11:08. > :11:12.Jack's story has always been about making other families aware of

:11:12. > :11:16.brain tumours, and that will still continue - a lasting legacy for a

:11:16. > :11:21.little boy who touched so many people. The way that he was special,

:11:21. > :11:31.the way that he stood out from the crowd can - and I am determined

:11:31. > :11:33.

:11:33. > :11:38.will - still make a difference. awareness of it will carry on. I

:11:38. > :11:43.will use pictures of Jack and talk about Jack, not quite the way I

:11:43. > :11:53.envisaged him - being a doctor - but his name is Jack Marshall.

:11:53. > :11:54.

:11:54. > :11:58.He'll do what he wants. Coming up on Inside Out, rain or shine. The

:11:58. > :12:08.man trying to help people in the dales help people decide whether

:12:08. > :12:11.As the cost of heating our homes continues to skyrocket, it seems

:12:11. > :12:17.that a form of fuel that's been around for thousands of years is

:12:17. > :12:27.making something of a comeback. Asha Tanner has been hearing how

:12:27. > :12:28.

:12:28. > :12:33.chopping down trees for fuel can Imagine a way of heating our homes

:12:33. > :12:41.with something that won't hurt the planet, has a secure supply for

:12:41. > :12:45.centuries to come and is all around We have been using wood as fuel

:12:45. > :12:49.since prehistoric man struck his first campfire, and there's no

:12:49. > :12:53.shortage of this stuff in this part of the world, so what's stopping us

:12:53. > :12:57.from turning all of these trees into fuel? This is what we

:12:57. > :13:02.traditionally think of as biomass fuel - power stations fed by willow

:13:02. > :13:06.and wood pellets, all done on an industrial scale. The Forestry

:13:06. > :13:12.Commission has its sights set on another type of wood fuel - trees,

:13:12. > :13:16.and more specifically, trees belonging to private wood owners.

:13:16. > :13:20.have known this wood since I was a young boy. I have walked past it

:13:20. > :13:25.just about every day of my life, and I got a chance to buy it

:13:25. > :13:29.probably two years ago, and I took the opportunity. When you bought

:13:29. > :13:34.the woodland, what did your family say to you? On the day that we

:13:34. > :13:39.finally signed and I bought it, I brought them down, and I stopped on

:13:39. > :13:46.the roadside and said, "This tree is yours," and she says, "You

:13:46. > :13:52.what?" I said, "We bought the wood. This is our woodland," and they

:13:52. > :13:56.were amazed. Andrew is a sculptor and was planning to use the wood to

:13:56. > :14:02.display some of his work, but felt it was more than just a pretty

:14:02. > :14:07.place. I took some advice from the Forestry Commission about managing

:14:07. > :14:10.this woodland, and they advised me that all Sycamores had to come out.

:14:10. > :14:14.Once you have took them down, you have to do something with them, so

:14:14. > :14:19.the case is that we're chopping it up and hopefully selling it.

:14:19. > :14:24.Who will you be selling it to? plan is to sell it within this

:14:24. > :14:29.local area, within a two-mile radius or so. The demand for wood

:14:29. > :14:33.fuel is rising rapidly. The market has expanded almost tenfold in the

:14:33. > :14:38.last five years. What we can't produce ourselves, we're forced to

:14:38. > :14:41.import, and that leaves a big carbon footprint. But if the

:14:41. > :14:46.Forestry Commission could tap into private owners like Andrew, there

:14:46. > :14:53.could be piles more local timber available, ten million more tonnes,

:14:53. > :14:59.they say, by 2020. Rudy, why do you want to encourage people to use

:14:59. > :15:09.wood fuel? Well, what we've got is 92,000 hectares of woodland in the

:15:09. > :15:09.

:15:10. > :15:12.Humber. About half of that woodland is under managed. What about for

:15:12. > :15:17.purists who are worried about the destruction of woodlands

:15:17. > :15:22.themselves? What would you say to them? Well, wood fuel is a market

:15:22. > :15:27.by which we can actively manage woodlands, create better ecosystems

:15:27. > :15:32.and produce better quality timber, so everybody wins - timber, climate

:15:32. > :15:36.change, tackling fossil fuel use and obviously improving the ecofuel

:15:36. > :15:39.system at the same time. On the Zetland Estate in North Yorkshire

:15:39. > :15:48.they run one of the biggest private forestry operations in Yorkshire,

:15:48. > :15:52.but even they only recently turned to wood to heat the estate. We were

:15:52. > :15:57.looking for market for the estate's timber. The high price of oil was

:15:57. > :16:03.driving us towards looking at renewables, and this seemed a great

:16:03. > :16:08.opportunity for us to put the two together. Woodland makes up two-

:16:08. > :16:12.thirds of the Zetland Estate. a long testify term thing, forestry.

:16:12. > :16:17.You're only a custodian of the woodlands for a short period. A lot

:16:17. > :16:23.of the timber we have at the moment was planted way before I started

:16:23. > :16:27.here by different forestry managers and Lords of this estate. They're

:16:27. > :16:31.now producing enough fuel to heat all the estate building, plus the

:16:31. > :16:35.local school. This is all very well in rural North Yorkshire, but most

:16:35. > :16:38.of us don't live on a country estate. What would be a real

:16:38. > :16:44.challenge would be to set up a similar system in the former coal

:16:44. > :16:49.fields of South Yorkshire. This used to be a powerhouse of fuel

:16:49. > :16:54.production and could be yet again, thanks to an EU grant. The

:16:54. > :17:00.partnership came up with a �95,000 grant to help resuscitate this

:17:00. > :17:05.woodland on the outskirts of Barnsley. Lynne, why hasn't it been

:17:05. > :17:09.economic to produce wood fuel? Private forestry owners tend to

:17:09. > :17:14.look at it in, how much is it going to cost us to take this out of the

:17:14. > :17:20.wood? And when you have planted timber 50 years ago, and you're

:17:20. > :17:30.taking it out, at the end of it, you're just going to leave it there,

:17:30. > :17:31.

:17:31. > :17:34.aren't you? We have been able to identify 290-something woodland

:17:34. > :17:38.within the South Yorkshire owner and being able to approach those

:17:38. > :17:43.woodland owners and ask them what more they want from their woodland,

:17:43. > :17:47.how they can manage it better and help them by learning from their

:17:47. > :17:54.European colleagues who are already active in managing their woodland

:17:54. > :17:59.more actively. They've set up a supply chain so that wood can be

:17:59. > :18:05.processed and used in the area. We're used to solid fuel, used to

:18:05. > :18:08.handling solid fuels used to storing fuel, burning fuel. These

:18:08. > :18:13.grants are primarily to drive the wood fuel supply chain, which it is

:18:13. > :18:18.now doing. It is now economic to thin woodlands, and at last we see

:18:18. > :18:22.some light at the end of the tunnel. I bought this wood through money

:18:22. > :18:30.that was earned in the Barnsley area. I am keeping it as good as I

:18:30. > :18:35.can for the area. This is where some of his wood might end up.

:18:35. > :18:40.This woodchip boiler is heating 166 flats in the centre of Barnsley,

:18:40. > :18:44.the biggest community wood-powered installation in the UK. Coal has

:18:44. > :18:49.become expensive over the last few years, but we also want to reduce

:18:49. > :18:55.the amount of carbon that we're releasing from this site into the

:18:55. > :19:01.atmosphere. This particular type of scheme is a very efficient form of

:19:01. > :19:06.heating, far more efficient than single-dwelling heating systems, so

:19:06. > :19:09.it does work out very cheap in terms of running costs. Turning

:19:09. > :19:14.forest owners into wood fuel producers could provide enough fuel

:19:14. > :19:17.to heat a quarter of a million homes, and in the process, preserve

:19:17. > :19:24.our woodlands for future generations. I didn't realise until

:19:24. > :19:31.I bought this wood how important it is. Unless they're maintained and

:19:31. > :19:41.thinned out, they just become dead spaces. I don't truly believe I own

:19:41. > :19:45.

:19:45. > :19:49.it. I am just the sort of caretaker As we all know, planning anything

:19:49. > :19:54.outdoor -- planting anything outdoors can be an absolute lottery

:19:54. > :19:59.because of did weather. We sent our weather man who is trying to help

:19:59. > :20:02.out by setting up a series of local weather stations across Yorkshire.

:20:02. > :20:07.We do start the forecast with a severe Met Office warning for

:20:07. > :20:11.further snow. Not only will the showers be big and heavy, but with

:20:11. > :20:16.just a light breeze, they'll be slow moving. A beautiful start to

:20:16. > :20:20.the day, but don't be fooled because it is going to turn showery.

:20:20. > :20:24.I have been forecasting the weather in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire for

:20:24. > :20:29.just over four years. In that time I have seen all kinds of weather.

:20:29. > :20:33.It may be a clee share, but in this part of the world, it really can

:20:33. > :20:36.get four seasons in one day. Most of the time I like to think we'll

:20:36. > :20:40.get the forecast right, but occasionally, things can go wrong.

:20:40. > :20:46.That's what makes the job so challenging. We're going live in

:20:46. > :20:50.just a minute. Take a look. This is a cloudy old day.

:20:50. > :20:54.Advances in technology mean that forecasting is more accurate than

:20:54. > :20:58.ever before, but the weather can sometimes be a little mischievous

:20:58. > :21:02.and difficult to pin down, especially at a local level. So I

:21:02. > :21:07.have come to meet a man who is giving us forecasters, shall we say,

:21:07. > :21:12.a helping hand. Right. We have the wind cups, forward speed. That

:21:12. > :21:16.collects the rain. OK. What about this? And this is the integrated

:21:16. > :21:20.sensor suite that collects all the information, and that goes to the

:21:20. > :21:26.console here. John Livesley has always been fascinated by the

:21:26. > :21:30.weather, and when he retired, he decided to turn his dream of

:21:30. > :21:39.providing a network of local network stations across the country

:21:39. > :21:43.into a reality. I started to offer coverage from Ilkley to Bowness,

:21:43. > :21:48.started with a weather station here, and before I knew it, people were

:21:48. > :21:56.contacting me saying, "Can we have a station please?" Within two-and-

:21:56. > :22:00.a-half years John had had weather stations all feeding data back to a

:22:00. > :22:05.website that can be accessed by anyone. The information off the

:22:05. > :22:09.console gets into the system and is displayed here in these various

:22:09. > :22:19.different charts. So you have the temperatures, UV, solar, rain

:22:19. > :22:23.gauges, a forecast. You can just see that is real-time, not animated.

:22:23. > :22:27.We have a graft button and the webcams. What this means is anyone

:22:27. > :22:31.can log on to a computer and find out exactly what the weather is

:22:31. > :22:36.doing at that moment of time in the Yorkshire dales. The site also

:22:36. > :22:40.offers a forecast, but not in the sort of detail I am used to.

:22:40. > :22:48.observations are really useful and you claim accurate. But what about

:22:48. > :22:52.the forecast - that's vague - precipitation possible within 24-48

:22:52. > :22:57.hours. I understand what you're saying about the vagaries of the

:22:57. > :23:02.forecast, but that forecast could change within five or ten seconds

:23:02. > :23:06.as it computes something else, and the way this system works is it

:23:06. > :23:12.builds up its database of conditions - cause and ec, and it

:23:12. > :23:17.will get more and more accurate with time - literally with years.

:23:17. > :23:22.For John, the project, which he calls MyLocalWeather, really is a

:23:22. > :23:26.labour of love, but it can also be quite time-consuming. Today there

:23:26. > :23:30.is a problem up in Ribblehead. have frequent power cut, which

:23:30. > :23:36.computers don't like, so that may be a combination of factors that's

:23:36. > :23:41.causing the problem, and it's remote, and it's unmanned, and it's

:23:41. > :23:45.cold, and it's wet, and it's grey, but apart from that, it's a great

:23:45. > :23:51.day. In between putting in new station and maintaining existing

:23:51. > :23:55.one, it's almost become a full-time job. And as I speak, we have

:23:55. > :24:04.rebooted this, and I am - fingers crossed, as we speak, it's doing

:24:04. > :24:09.what it should do and downloading fast - I can tell by the way the

:24:09. > :24:13.digits are going. Up next is the Wensleydale Creamery. I have a

:24:13. > :24:18.spare console so I can take that up on to the cherry picker with myself

:24:18. > :24:23.and Phil and plug that in. Hopefully, we can get a reading

:24:24. > :24:27.from there. And the job is a good one, fingers crossed.

:24:27. > :24:31.Mind your head. Health and safety at all times. It takes a few

:24:31. > :24:38.minutes to fit the part, and the weather station is back in business.

:24:38. > :24:42.Yes, we have a reading. It's working. John's weather station

:24:42. > :24:50.aren't just about letting people know what the weather is doing.

:24:50. > :24:54.They also have a practical use. I am off to Dalby Forest to find out

:24:54. > :25:01.more. The forest is a massive tourist attraction bringing in

:25:01. > :25:06.walkers and cyclists from all over, but with 3,000 hectares of woodland,

:25:06. > :25:10.it's also a valuable source of timber and all of this takes

:25:10. > :25:16.careful management. The weather station gives accurate

:25:16. > :25:19.information. We found it's actually got a lot of use for our own forest

:25:19. > :25:24.management, things like checking for fire danger and water stress on

:25:24. > :25:32.the plants and stuff like that we grow. The weather station gives

:25:32. > :25:37.accurate information about rainfall as well as evapotranspiration rates,

:25:37. > :25:42.so rangers know how much moisture is leaving the forest. This morning

:25:42. > :25:48.it was only .5 of a millimetre, which is no stress at all on a

:25:48. > :25:52.plant. As that figure comes up to figures like 20, that's stressful

:25:52. > :25:56.for plant. You can actually monitor that on a live format. So now we

:25:56. > :26:01.know that John's weather stations have their uses, but what about

:26:01. > :26:06.their forecast? I think it's time for a bit of a challenge. OK, then,

:26:06. > :26:11.John. See you there. Bye. Here's the plan. We have set a date in the

:26:11. > :26:15.future - the Kilnsey Show, and on that day, John's going to give his

:26:15. > :26:19.forecast. I'll give mine. We'll see if it's right. Now on to the

:26:19. > :26:24.weather prospects. It's the Kilnsey Show today. How is it looking?

:26:24. > :26:28.looking cool and cloudy, and if I were a girl, which I am, I would

:26:28. > :26:33.probably take my brolly because there is the risk of the odd light

:26:33. > :26:37.shower. Good morning. How are you? Very well. How are you? Very well.

:26:37. > :26:40.I have done my forecast. I think in summary it's probably going to be

:26:40. > :26:44.fairly cloudy, probably mostly dry, but there could be the odd light

:26:44. > :26:50.shower and cool as well. What about you? From the readings at Kilnsey

:26:50. > :26:55.Park, the close base is quite low. It's a light wind, and it is saying

:26:55. > :27:00.that there are increasing clouds with little temperature change, but

:27:00. > :27:07.precipitation is possible within 24-48 hours. Sadly, a gloomy day, I

:27:07. > :27:12.think, for us all. All right, John. I'll see you there. The Kilnsey

:27:12. > :27:15.Show always falls on the Tuesday after the August Bank Holiday. It

:27:15. > :27:19.attracts thousands of visitor, so an accurate forecast is vital for

:27:19. > :27:23.the organisers. The weather forecast is probably

:27:23. > :27:29.the most important thing we have to deal with at the show. We all

:27:29. > :27:36.listen to it. One says one thing, one says another. We try to listen

:27:36. > :27:40.to one that is correct. Like a BBC One? Like a BBC! So John, it's just

:27:40. > :27:46.gone 1.00pm. How do you think we're doing? I think it's a draw. We have

:27:46. > :27:49.both come up with the same forecast - a good old August grey day.

:27:49. > :27:55.Absolutely. It's overcast. We have both driven through a shower on the

:27:55. > :27:59.way here. It feels cool. It does indeed. No factor 24 today. Having

:27:59. > :28:02.these extremely local weather station can certainly be of use to

:28:02. > :28:07.some people and could be best used to complement the weather forecast

:28:07. > :28:10.by the Met Office. Let's face it - when you live in a place where the

:28:10. > :28:14.weather is so variable, why not take advantage of your very own

:28:14. > :28:24.weather station? And guess what - after we left, it rained all

:28:24. > :28:30.afternoon, just to prove how fickle If you want to contact us about any

:28:30. > :28:34.of tonight's stories, you can do through our Facebook page or via
