A major shake-up of the armed forces. Lossiemouth will become | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
Scotland's only RAF base as it is confirmed that Leuchars will become | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
an army barracks. We get the reaction. I am shocked and stunned | :00:33. | :00:41. | |
and very sad. The army are coming in, but it is the whole character | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
of the place. There will also be big changes to | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
the army. Redford, Dreghorn and Craigiehall barracks will be sold | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
and replaced with a new facility in the south of Edinburgh. | :00:54. | :01:00. | |
Also tonight, police wait to question a car-crash victim in | :01:00. | :01:09. | |
Dundee about the death of his wife. Drama as polar bears -- has | :01:09. | :01:15. | |
protesters dressed as polar bears are removed from office. | :01:15. | :01:20. | |
And, a ten-team SPL seems unlikely after discussions today. | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
Scotland is at the heart of a mass reorganisation of British armed | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
forces. The Defence Secretary Liam Fox unveiled his review this | :01:28. | :01:36. | |
afternoon. RAF Leuchars will close. Lossiemouth will remain as | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
Scotland's only RAF air base. The Ministry of Defence are already | :01:42. | :01:49. | |
announced the closure of RAF Kinloss. In Leuchars, the army will | :01:49. | :01:56. | |
move in eventually. This will also happen income loss. -- happen in | :01:56. | :02:03. | |
Kinloss. Redford, Dreghorn and Kinloss. Redford, Dreghorn and | :02:03. | :02:09. | |
Craigiehall barracks will be sold. In a moment, we will get reaction | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
to the news from RAF Lossiemouth. We will be speaking to our | :02:14. | :02:23. | |
correspondent in Westminster. Our first Report comes from RAF | :02:23. | :02:33. | |
:02:33. | :02:39. | ||
The Crest says it all. This base was built to defend the north of | :02:39. | :02:49. | |
:02:49. | :02:51. | ||
the UK, but today, 100 years of The defence secretary was keen to | :02:51. | :02:59. | |
point out that Scotland would still be a home to armed forces. This is | :02:59. | :03:09. | |
:03:09. | :03:10. | ||
in line with the Scottish tradition of supporting our armed forces. | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
Typhoon jets will leave in 2013. The army will move then I year or | :03:15. | :03:23. | |
two later. This is a gap without military personnel that this area | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
can ill-afford. We do not know how many men are coming, how many | :03:27. | :03:34. | |
families. We would hope to welcome them, but how people accept them, | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
we do not have much choice. Businesses like this guesthouse | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
relied on the boys in blue. It will affect our business. It generates a | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
few thousand pounds per year for us, between the air show and new | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
recruits coming up for interviews. We get quite a bit of business from | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
the air base. This village is defined by its near by air base. It | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
is thought to be worth nearly �60 million to the local economy. | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
shocked and stunned and very sad. I mean, all right, the army are | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
coming in, but it is the whole character of the place. Some people | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
-- so many people I know are involved in the camp. It is very | :04:20. | :04:29. | |
sad for Lucas. -- for Leuchars. spent a lot of time there in the | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
army and as a technician. The people of Leuchars warmed to the | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
RAF and I believe they will do to the army. It is a new beginning for | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
Leuchars, but it is a new beginning that people here have fought | :04:42. | :04:52. | |
:04:52. | :04:53. | ||
against. Many people feel that the Is there any sense that the army | :04:53. | :05:00. | |
moving in to Leuchars will make up for it? The few the end fight | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
continues tonight. People here were shocked, despite all the rumours, | :05:05. | :05:15. | |
:05:15. | :05:16. | ||
to hear that RAF Leuchars would be closed. People here were gathered | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
round a phone to hear the statement by Liam Fox. One of the things they | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
are worried about is this gap. When the Typhoon jets leave, how long | :05:25. | :05:33. | |
will it be before the army units move in? An MP from Aldershot | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
talked-about reconfiguration, jargon that people here do not want | :05:36. | :05:43. | |
to hear. They admitted tonight that it could be 2017 before the army | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
come here. It could cost the local area millions of pounds. The | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
Typhoon jet fighters will be moved to Lossiemouth by 2013. We can go | :05:54. | :06:04. | |
:06:04. | :06:06. | ||
there now. The other side of the story here on the Moray Firth. | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
Lossiemouth will become the only operational RAF base in Scotland. | :06:12. | :06:18. | |
That has given some sort of long- term security. Good news for RAF | :06:18. | :06:24. | |
Kinloss, the army will move in there by 2015. The locals here | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
fought a vociferous campaign to save Lossiemouth. They area relies | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
heavily on the air bases. They say there has been a lot of damage done, | :06:34. | :06:40. | |
it is time to rebuild confidence in the area. Early afternoon, and | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
service personnel at RAF Lossiemouth gather in one of the | :06:44. | :06:53. | |
:06:54. | :06:57. | ||
huge hangars. This is week two of the task force. It was good news. | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
We said right from the onset that we would fight this campaign and | :07:01. | :07:09. | |
not allow decisions to be made about us without being heard in | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
Westminster. We have used every possible method to fight this. | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
has been nine months of pain and agony, it has just ended today. It | :07:19. | :07:25. | |
is a big decision for us. We need to see some securities that this is | :07:25. | :07:35. | |
:07:35. | :07:35. | ||
a long-term strategic view for RAF Lossiemouth. Lossiemouth is already | :07:35. | :07:43. | |
home to some of the fighters that had been used in Libya. Soon, it | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
will be home to the Typhoon jet. Good news for RAF Kinloss. It is no | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
longer going to be an RAF air base, but it will be taken over as an | :07:54. | :08:00. | |
army base by 2015. A short time ago, the First | :08:00. | :08:06. | |
Minister Alex Salmond had this to say about the decrease in RAF | :08:06. | :08:13. | |
personnel. For the first time in many years, we have a share of | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
personnel in Scotland which will reflect our size of population. It | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
represents natural justice for Scotland. We have to make sure that | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
the rough justice for Leuchars and can loss does not have adverse | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
economic effect in these areas. Much of what was announced today, | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
especially about the RAF, had been widely predicted. Let us go to | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
Westminster. What about the changes to the army, how significant is the | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
announcement? These are very big changes as far as the army is | :08:46. | :08:52. | |
concerned. They should not be underestimated in any way. About | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
5,000 extra army personnel will be coming into Scotland as part of | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
something known as the multi- Role brigade. Thousands of troops are | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
coming from Germany. When that process is complete, the army head | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
count in Scotland will have gone up to 8,500. The army will be going | :09:10. | :09:16. | |
into new places, Kinloss and Leuchars. The historic barracks in | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
Edinburgh will be sold and a new centre will be built to the south- | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
west of Edinburgh. There will be new training grounds to. Experts | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
say that it means that the army is very important to Scotland and, in | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
future, Scotland will become very important to the British Army. | :09:35. | :09:45. | |
think we will see up to 25% of the army's presence based in Scotland. | :09:45. | :09:52. | |
The size of the regular army will reduce in future. If we are pulling | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
out 20,000 troops from Germany, if the majority are coming to Scotland, | :09:56. | :10:03. | |
we will have a visible presence. is not all good news for the army. | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
Some senior commanders will not be based in Scotland, they will be | :10:07. | :10:13. | |
down south. There are concerns about this transition period. There | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
are concerns about how long it will take the army to get there and what | :10:17. | :10:27. | |
:10:27. | :10:29. | ||
local effect -- what effect will be apparent on the local economy. | :10:29. | :10:35. | |
Still to come, All At Sea, three men said sailed on a daring voyage | :10:35. | :10:42. | |
from Shetland to Norway in kayaks. -- three men said Sale. And find | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
out what happened when this man decided to go for a cycle in the | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
Highlands. And in sport, we have the very | :10:50. | :10:56. | |
latest on SPL reconstruction and Ricky Burns takes less than around | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
to defend his WBO super heavyweight crown -- super-featherweight crown. | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
Police are still waiting to question the victim of a car crash | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
on the outskirts of Dundee in connection with the death of his | :11:10. | :11:20. | |
:11:20. | :11:24. | ||
wife. Jacqui Thompson was found -- Jane Cumming was found at her home | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
by police who had come to break the news of her husband's accident. | :11:28. | :11:35. | |
Her body was found here by police who had come to tell the mother of | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
two that her husband had been seriously hurt in a car crash. Far | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
from breaking the news of that tragedy, they found one much worse. | :11:42. | :11:50. | |
Jane Cumming lay dead inside. Neighbours said that they seemed | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
like that happy family. It is very sad, we saw her a lot of times | :11:55. | :12:03. | |
doing the gardening. We smiled and topped. The kids always played | :12:03. | :12:13. | |
outside. They seemed to be a happy family. An ordinary, happy family. | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
The 45-year-old father had to be cut free from the wreckage of his | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
vehicle after the accident on the road coming into Dundee. We | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
understand he had been sitting in his car and the lay-by for some | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
time before the accident happened. He then accelerated out onto the | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
main carriageway and enter the back of a lorry. The driver of that | :12:35. | :12:40. | |
second vehicle was unhurt. Detectives are trying to trace the | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
movements of both husband and wife on Friday morning and have issued | :12:44. | :12:54. | |
:12:54. | :12:54. | ||
an appeal. We are very interested to speak with the people that were | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
then a four by four motor vehicle. That was probably darken colour, we | :12:57. | :13:04. | |
believe there was a child in that car. It could be that we have | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
already spoken to them, but if they could come forward again, it would | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
be a great help. Today, post-mortem has been taking place to establish | :13:13. | :13:19. | |
how Jane Cumming died here. It is understood that Mr coming is | :13:19. | :13:25. | |
showing signs of recovery but he Police have removed dozens of | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
Greenpeace protestors from the Edinburgh headquarters of the oil | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
company, Cairn Energy. The company has been repeatedly targeted by | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
Greenpeace since it began drilling for oil in the Arctic. Here's our | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
environment correspondent. The protesters, many dressed as | :13:39. | :13:44. | |
polar bears, marched into the headquarters of Cairn Energy | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
shortly after 8am this morning. They arrived to highlight the | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
unacceptable risk posed by the company's operations in the Arctic. | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
Greenpeace says unwell spill in the Arctic would be an environmental | :13:57. | :14:07. | |
:14:07. | :14:08. | ||
catastrophe. Kicks growth and it is continuing its protests until a | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
publication comes out showing the consequences of a spill. Protests | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
will continue until driving stops. Right now, the oil rigs are up in | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
the Arctic SVRs drilling for oil. But they have absolutely no idea | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
how they would deal with an oil spill. But to be devastating for | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
the wildlife and their communities. The company told us, or Everett is | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
active, it of Brits in a safe and prudent manner. -- wherever it | :14:36. | :14:45. | |
operates. It has stringent regulations, which mirror those | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
applied in the Norwegian North Sea. For protesters chained themselves | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
together inside the offices were other search for documents showing | :14:52. | :14:57. | |
how they would deal with an oil spill. Police began removing them | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
late this afternoon. Lothian and Borders Police say and number of | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
people have been arrested and will appear at Edinburgh sheriff court | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
tomorrow. Some of the other stories across | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
Scotland this Monday... The market for jobs continued to | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
improve last month, but at a slower pace than before, according to a | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
report from the Bank of Scotland. The biggest rise in workers | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
securing a job was in Dundee. Edinburgh recorded the sharpest | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
hikes in wages. However, across the country, the rate of growth in | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
vacancies was the slowest for many months. | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
Cancer rates among middle-aged women in Scotland are higher than | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
the UK average, with around ten new cases diagnosed every day. Cancer | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
Research UK said their latest figures from 2008 showed more than | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
3,500 woman in Scotland aged between 40 and 59 were diagnosed | :15:37. | :15:44. | |
with the disease. The Scottish Government is | :15:44. | :15:46. | |
launching two new programmes to help charities and community | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
enterprises boost their role in developing the economy. It includes | :15:50. | :15:55. | |
a fund of �4 million to help tackle social problems. Groups can apply | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
for grants of up to �200,000 if they can show it would help them do | :15:58. | :16:06. | |
more work with disadvantaged people. Three adventurers have set off in | :16:06. | :16:10. | |
kayaks from Shetland to Norway. They're recreating the daring | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
voyages, made 70 years ago, by resistance fighters who crossed the | :16:13. | :16:23. | |
:16:23. | :16:25. | ||
North Sea in small fishing boats during the Second World War. | :16:25. | :16:34. | |
Paddling in the footsteps of the brave men in the Second World War. | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
Adventure sports men Patrick Winterton and his two colleagues | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
are making the 240 mile journey across the North Sea without a | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
safety boat. The biggest challenge we will come across is dealing with | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
the fatigue and the discomfort. Survival heat packs will keep the | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
paddlers and warmth. We have put a little seal on the front of the | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
boat just in case we have serious injury problems. That should get us | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
home. That is a safety item. We have a pond. It will be rough and | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
we will be filling up with water. We will have to pump it out on a | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
regular basis. The only other problem you have over three days is | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
that you need a lot of water. We have had to spread the weight out. | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
There's a water tank and the front, or one in the back and a grubby | :17:24. | :17:29. | |
piped to connect them. In the early years of the war, small Norwegian | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
fishing boats were used for the high risk crossings. They carried | :17:33. | :17:40. | |
weapons and supplies. For many, it was a close call. Hundreds lost | :17:40. | :17:46. | |
their lives. When we're out in the middle of the North Sea and it is | :17:46. | :17:49. | |
getting nasty and we are starting to question why we're doing it, | :17:49. | :17:54. | |
those are the guys... It is the story of them that will inspire us | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
to keep going. The journey is expected to take them four days and | :17:59. | :18:07. | |
three nights. Good luck to them! | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
And now the sport. Plans to overhaul the top tier of | :18:10. | :18:12. | |
Scottish football won't be implemented until season 2012-13 at | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
the earliest. Opposition to a top ten remains firm after today's | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
annual general meeting of the Scottish Premier League. And even | :18:21. | :18:30. | |
:18:31. | :18:31. | ||
the prospect of play-offs is at least a season away. | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
As representatives of the top 12 clubs, at the word was that apish | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
for the top 10 was at a mend. So did today's meeting sound the | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
death-knell for a move to a smaller league? I do not think it is fair | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
to say that. You have to comment individually about it. Everybody | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
understands the need for change. I think that will happen. But how | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
will be get there? I was always confident that there was | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
insufficient support for that to go forward, and that remains my | :19:01. | :19:10. | |
position. Is very timescale on this? You cannot take forever. | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
you want to bet?! Talks over SPL reconstruction have been dragging | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
on for months and at today's meeting, it was only discussed | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
briefly. That will suggest that we will have the status quo for the | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
season ahead and any talk of a radical overhaul seems as remote as | :19:26. | :19:33. | |
ever. We need imaginative thought. We need someone to say look, here | :19:33. | :19:38. | |
is what we should do. Something we have not thought of yet. That is | :19:38. | :19:44. | |
what they're there for. To come up with nothing at this stage is | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
almost criminal. One change that has been implemented is an earlier | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
start to the season, which is why the SPL action gets under way on | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
Saturday lunchtime as the champions, Rangers, host hearts. | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
Aberdeen have completed the signing of Icelandic international | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
defensive midfielder Kari Arnasan. Meanwhile, the Rangers defender | :20:03. | :20:07. | |
Kirk Broadfoot says he might have to leave Ibrox if he struggles for | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
first team action this season. With manager Ally McCoist keen to bring | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
in new faces, Broadfoot admits he might have to think at the very | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
least about a loan move if he finds his opportunities at Rangers | :20:18. | :20:28. | |
:20:28. | :20:28. | ||
limited. I came here as a young boy who and was able to play every game | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
in Europe all the way through to the cub finals. If there is a | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
challenge, I am not for it. But at the end of the day, if I am not | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
given that chance to prove that I'm good enough, then I will have to | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
look elsewhere. Ricky Burns has apologised to his | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
fans after his third successful world title defence in Liverpool | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
lasted less than a round. Burns sent Nicky Cooke to the canvas | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
straight away. Three times the challenger hit the canvas. After | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
leaving the ring on a stretcher, Cooke was later diagnosed with a | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
slipped disc. Not the most satisfying victory of Burns' career, | :20:58. | :21:07. | |
but a win's a win. The very first punch I threw was an absolute peach. | :21:07. | :21:13. | |
I felt that go right up my arm. Maybe his back did go. But again, I | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
am just really disappointed for all the fans that came down here. They | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
came down wanted to see a good fight. I trained and wanted a good | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
fight. But I got the win and that is the main thing. | :21:26. | :21:28. | |
And finally, some good news for Scottish tennis fans following Andy | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
Murray's tears last week. The Lawn Tennis Association has decided the | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
Braehead Arena will indeed once again be the venue for Great | :21:34. | :21:37. | |
Britain when they play their Davis Cup play-off match against Hungary | :21:37. | :21:47. | |
:21:47. | :21:48. | ||
in September. We must stop reclaim that! That is | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
a shame! How did you spend your Sunday | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
evening? Spot of ironing, or feet up in front of the telly maybe? Or | :21:55. | :21:59. | |
were you one of the hundreds who turned out for a 30 mile bike ride | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
in the highlands with seven times Tour de France winner Lance | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
Armstrong? Well, it was a summer night in Dornoch many will remember | :22:04. | :22:12. | |
for a very long time. They descended on Dornoch from all | :22:12. | :22:18. | |
directions. White-clad, helmeted and preparing to pedal. This was to | :22:18. | :22:26. | |
be a very special bike ride. I just came from the west coast. Seven | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
times Tour de France champion, you cannot miss that! I have to be part | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
of it. I came up from five this morning. It will just be great to | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
meet him and say hello and see how he is doing. They came not to see a | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
cycling champion, but a man who has bought an inspirational battle | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
against cancer and still campaigns, encouraging others. He is a bit of | :22:49. | :22:56. | |
an idol. It is a bit of a pilgrimage, really. Lance Armstrong | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
treated their Twitter ride invite just days before and at 5pm last | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
night, he paddled into the middle of the throng to lead them off, | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
hotly pursued by the BBC! We do it around the world. We did the first | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
one in Scotland, so this is our anniversary. We're just here for a | :23:14. | :23:19. | |
few days with the family. It was a beautiful day yesterday. Have you | :23:19. | :23:24. | |
done Highlands before? Never. This is the first. Are you going to be | :23:24. | :23:31. | |
kind to them? We will take it easy! We are going to go. And go they did. | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
A 30 mile did. Lance Armstrong later thanked their 1000 people who | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
turned out and the police for helping on Twitter. He wrote, you | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
rock - keep writing! They were busy at the weekend in | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
Oban, too, which has clinched a Scottish Country Dancing world | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
record by staging the biggest Strip The Willow. The town's streets were | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
thronged on Saturday evening as almost 2,000 people turned out for | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
the record attempt. It's now been verified, beating the existing | :23:55. | :24:03. | |
Guiness Book of Records figure by Never mind dancing, you needed to | :24:03. | :24:10. | |
be able to swim at the weekend. Let's get the weather from Cat. | :24:10. | :24:14. | |
Some very on seasonable weather for July are over last weekend. This | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
evening will be largely cloudy with some rain in the North. Many of the | :24:19. | :24:22. | |
showers we had in the south gradually die out. We will see a | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
dry night with some clear spells developing. In the North, | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
especially the North East and west, will be will see some showers | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
pushing and these will turn to longer spells of rain by the | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
morning. It will be a mild night, with lows of 11 Celsius. A little | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
bit cooler in the far west. Tomorrow, we keep that North - side | :24:43. | :24:51. | |
spite. Cloudy in the North with further outbreaks of rain. -- North | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
- South split. Wimpish as in the North and it will feel a little | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
better in the cool side as we have a strengthening northerly breeze. | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
Highs reaching 15 or 16 degrees. Further south, around Glasgow and | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
the south-west is where we will see the best of any sunny spells and | :25:08. | :25:15. | |
the best temperatures. In the south, we will largely sea temperatures | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
rising to the high teens. We will also see some rain breaking out in | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
the eastern parts of the Borders. Tomorrow evening, the will keep the | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
brain in the East and in the North of the country. We have this on | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
seasonable weather with us over the weekend. The reason for it, if we | :25:33. | :25:36. | |
take a look at the pressure charge, is that we have had low-pressure | :25:36. | :25:39. | |
over Ross or close by all the last we while and it will stay that way | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
for much of this week, bringing further unsettled conditions. A | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
mixture of sunshine and rain. Wednesday will be largely bright, | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
but we will see some rain developing and also some sunny | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
spells. It will feel cooler. Especially in the North. Towards | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
the end of the week, BA will hopefully see more sunny spells and | :26:00. | :26:07. | |
the brain will be a little bit Now, just before 7 o'clock, a | :26:07. | :26:14. | |
