:04:57. > :04:59.So that's why they are despdrate to recruit enough volunteers.

:06:54. > :06:57.that Weymouth will find a solution. If that is not the case, I think
:06:58. > :07:00.there is a workaround. A piece of rescue equipment
:07:01. > :07:03.on Jersey's West coast has been so badly damaged it can no longer

:07:10. > :07:23.be rescued after getting into This rescue board will no longer be
:07:24. > :07:29.available at this beach. It was useful because it had the btoyancy
:07:30. > :07:33.to carry two people, essenthal in an emergency. This board has bden
:07:34. > :07:37.available here at the beach for decades, to help anyone who gets

:07:42. > :07:49.night, it is no longer going to be in the use and at a cost of ?14 0, a
:07:50. > :07:53.replacement is unlikely. Earlier in the evening, lifeguards helped
:07:54. > :07:57.rescue a surfer who had been slammed against the sea wall after getting
:07:58. > :08:02.cut off from the beach by a high tide. He was pulled to safety by a
:08:03. > :08:07.lifeguard who went into the water to help at the surfer got tangled in
:08:08. > :08:12.help. The beach is known to be dangerous at high tide and the beach
:08:13. > :08:20.lifeguard say surfers and swimmers have to respect the tides. We have a
:08:21. > :08:23.big sea wall which runs the length of beach. With those big tides and a

:22:47. > :22:50.Somerset, particularly the Somerset levels. Some more to come l`ter on
:22:51. > :22:54.tonight. The area of high pressure that gave us such nice weather at
:22:55. > :22:58.the weekend has gone. It is low pressure and it will be arotnd all
:22:59. > :23:03.week. One system moving to the north of us through the day tomorrow means
:23:04. > :23:08.the showers in the morning `re replaced by brighter condithons in
:23:09. > :23:12.the afternoon. And more low pressure will move in on Wednesday. Wednesday
:23:13. > :23:19.is probably the best day of the week. Scattered showers that we have
:23:20. > :23:23.seen today are still around. That line of showers going through
:23:24. > :23:29.Somerset is giving some torrential down pours. But let's go back into
