gas industry, as David Cameron gives fracking his full support. More

:00:12.:00:19.

anti-fracking protests as councils are given incentives to allow

:00:20.:00:24.

drilling for the gas in their areas. This is costing police thousands and

:00:25.:00:28.

thousands of pounds a week just to manage the protests at this site.

:00:29.:00:32.

Imagine if this starts going on at all the other dozens of proposed

:00:33.:00:38.

fracking sites. Also this lunch time - looking back over more than 70

:00:39.:00:43.

years of public hearings about the allegation of child abuse

:00:44.:02:33.

They closed the road. It did illustrate the strength of feeling

:02:34.:02:40.

as the Prime Minister headed out into the countryside to give the

:02:41.:02:43.

thumbs up to fracking. The Government wants to see more of

:02:44.:02:47.

this, energy companies searching for shale gas. Today as Total planned to

:02:48.:02:57.

invest millions in exploration, the Energy Minister was outlining plans

:02:58.:03:01.

to encourage councils to give the green light to sites. We know there

:03:02.:03:07.

is shale gas in the north and the South. It will be up to each local

:03:08.:03:11.

authority as to whether or not they agree planning applications. There

:03:12.:03:17.

is a local say as to whether or not it should go ahead. Local residents

:03:18.:03:21.

and the local authority should be able to keep some of the benefit.

:03:22.:03:34.

Some of the benefits. The council also once communities to receive

:03:35.:03:41.

money for each well and 1% of the revenues if the world goes into full

:03:42.:03:57.

production. -- well. At Barton masts, some local residents are less

:03:58.:04:05.

concerned. We do not think it is a major problem. It will help local

:04:06.:04:12.

communities and that is a good thing. I do not know what the

:04:13.:04:17.

long-term effects are. For what they make out of it communities, they

:04:18.:04:23.

should put some backing. It is about getting local councils to accept

:04:24.:04:26.

fracking. Local authorities do not want it in their areas and local

:04:27.:04:31.

residents do not want it. There are huge risks attached. This is a bribe

:04:32.:04:35.

to push local authorities into accepting it in their area. Fracking

:04:36.:04:42.

involves injecting water, sand and chemicals into shale rocks far

:04:43.:04:47.

underground. In America, it has resulted in soaring gas production

:04:48.:04:52.

and plummeting energy prices. The industry could generate 70,000 jobs

:04:53.:04:57.

and billions in investment. Will the cash incentives go far enough? Local

:04:58.:05:02.

communities have to get real benefit from fracking in that area. That

:05:03.:05:06.

will be money coming into something like a local community trust, which

:05:07.:05:11.

will be invested and build a year upon year as the oil and gas

:05:12.:05:15.

operations. That will be used for the benefit of the whole community.

:05:16.:05:20.

The Government insists it is going all out for shale. It expects

:05:21.:05:24.

between 20 and 40 wells to be drilled in the next few years.

:05:25.:05:31.

Number ten has also said that fracking could mean lower energy

:05:32.:05:35.

bills. Throwing that argument in as well. They mention there are 30 or

:05:36.:05:41.

40 potential fracking sites across England and other parts of the UK as

:05:42.:05:46.

well. You have seen the strength of the feeling and the protests. That

:05:47.:05:50.

could be replicated across the country are now will be more delays

:05:51.:05:54.

in some areas where the protesters are and the big bill for the

:05:55.:05:57.

taxpayer for policing these protests when they take place. Let's pick up

:05:58.:06:06.

on that as our chief political correspondent is at Westminster. In

:06:07.:06:10.

the face of opposition, can the Government push ahead? All systems

:06:11.:06:16.

are go on fracking from because Bective of the Government. Why? They

:06:17.:06:21.

believe it could be a huge boost to the British economy, not quite on

:06:22.:06:25.

the scale of North Sea oil. They are talking about tens of thousands of

:06:26.:06:30.

jobs and revitalising the manufacturing industry. On top of

:06:31.:06:33.

that, you get possible lower fuel bills. On top of that, it is worth

:06:34.:06:40.

noting that the Labour Party is by and large supporting it. It may come

:06:41.:06:44.

at a much heftier political and financial price than ministers are

:06:45.:06:48.

currently saying. The political price because of the protests we are

:06:49.:06:53.

seeing. We have already seen with other big infrastructure projects

:06:54.:06:58.

that a degree of difficulty governments can get into with these

:06:59.:07:02.

local constituency protests. The financial package they have to

:07:03.:07:06.

offer, which has already been described as a Tory MP as crumbs off

:07:07.:07:12.

the table, it seems to me that may have to be significantly increased.

:07:13.:07:17.

Fracking, it seems to me, is set to go ahead but the price ministers

:07:18.:07:23.

have to pay may be a lot higher than they currently realise. BBC News

:07:24.:07:28.

online has more on the arguments for and against fracking. You can have a

:07:29.:07:34.

look at on the website. A public hearing into allegations of child

:07:35.:07:39.

abuse at church and state run children's homes in Northern Ireland

:07:40.:07:43.

will begin this afternoon. More than 300 witnesses are due to give

:07:44.:07:47.

evidence to the inquiry which will consider whether there were systemic

:07:48.:07:51.

failings in the treatment of children in care between 1922 and

:07:52.:08:03.

1995. This is said to be the widest ranging enquiry into institutional

:08:04.:08:08.

abuse ever conducted in the UK. More than 200 victims of abuse, that is

:08:09.:08:13.

psychological, physical and sexual abuse, have already spoken privately

:08:14.:08:17.

to members of being quarried team. Many of them will speak out

:08:18.:08:21.

publicly. There are stories of ill-treatment and childhoods

:08:22.:08:30.

deprived are often harrowing. Happy children, welfare and cared for in a

:08:31.:08:35.

wholesome environment. That was the public image. The reality was

:08:36.:08:40.

sometimes very different. Many, like this home filmed in Scotland in the

:08:41.:08:46.

1950s, were run by religious orders. Kate was taken to Nazareth House in

:08:47.:08:51.

Londonderry when she was seven years old. One none would keep up to the

:08:52.:08:55.

back of the line at confession so a particular priest could abuse her. I

:08:56.:09:03.

was an abused child. I was a child, crying for help. I was a hurt child.

:09:04.:09:15.

I just needed someone to ask me, why was I not happy? Two homes in Derry

:09:16.:09:28.

are the focus of public hearings. It is investigating allegations of

:09:29.:09:32.

abuse over 70 years, right up until 1995. More than 430 people have come

:09:33.:09:37.

forward to say they were abused. The inquiry will look at claims that

:09:38.:09:44.

other claims. It was set up after lobbying by former victims. Bath

:09:45.:09:56.

times were an awful ritual. You were scrapped in Jays fluid. Roasting and

:09:57.:10:05.

scolding. You ducked down into a steel basin. We were screaming out

:10:06.:10:11.

for help and shivering. I remember standing in a corridor. Many homes

:10:12.:10:16.

are run by the church but not all. The Government must take the blame

:10:17.:10:20.

for failing to inspect and investigate them. Michael spent 18

:10:21.:10:24.

years in a succession of institutions, where he was beaten,

:10:25.:10:30.

starved, locked in cells and deprived of all affection. It is

:10:31.:10:34.

about time that people knew what has been hidden for 50 years. It is time

:10:35.:10:45.

it came out. What do the campaigners want from this enquiry? They want

:10:46.:10:49.

formal recognition of what they suffered. They want to insure that

:10:50.:10:52.

no child in future have to go through what they did. They want

:10:53.:10:59.

those still living, who committed the abuse, to face charges.

:11:00.:11:04.

The funeral is taking place of Ariel Sharon. He died on Saturday after

:11:05.:11:15.

being in a coma for eight years. At a memorial service, Tony Blair and

:11:16.:11:20.

Joe Biden were among some 20 foreign delegates, who paid tribute to the

:11:21.:11:29.

former leader. The day began with a memorial in Jerusalem where world

:11:30.:11:35.

leaders and Israeli dignitaries commended Ariel Sharon on his

:11:36.:11:38.

commitment, his unwavering commitment, to Israel. In the last

:11:39.:11:43.

few moments, on the hillside behind me, is coughing was lowered into the

:11:44.:11:48.

ground. His son said that Ariel Sharon had come home. The coughing

:11:49.:12:00.

of Ariel Sharon arrived on the rolling hills of southern Israel. --

:12:01.:12:08.

coffin. This was a funeral with full military honours. He was one of the

:12:09.:12:11.

greatest battlefield heroes. At an earlier memorial service, he

:12:12.:12:22.

was honoured as a fighter, farmer and statesman. He was part of the

:12:23.:12:31.

country 's founding generation. TRANSLATION:

:12:32.:12:38.

Your narrative is intertwined in the Nile is of our state. Your

:12:39.:12:43.

footprints are inscribed in every nook and cranny and hill and

:12:44.:12:49.

valley. You harvested its fruit with a sickle and defended its wheat

:12:50.:12:55.

kernels with a sword. Controversy has never been far from Ariel

:12:56.:12:58.

Sharon. His mission always remained the same. His strategic objective

:12:59.:13:07.

never wavered. The state which from the age of 14, he fought to bring

:13:08.:13:13.

into being, had to be protected for future generations. Ariel Sharon was

:13:14.:13:21.

as much a farmer as a fighter. His connection to the land was this a

:13:22.:13:26.

row. On this farm, he spent much of his life. This is his final resting

:13:27.:13:34.

place. He is buried beside his wife, not far from Gaza. The risk of

:13:35.:13:38.

missile attacks meant warning sirens were placed around the burial site.

:13:39.:13:43.

Palestinians had been celebrating and not mourning the passing. For

:13:44.:13:48.

them, he remains a warmonger and not a war hero. His journey here to his

:13:49.:13:55.

final resting place carried him past the scene of his earliest battles.

:13:56.:14:00.

Controversial to the end, Israel and Ariel Sharon travelled through

:14:01.:14:04.

history together. The funeral is just ending behind me. The

:14:05.:14:10.

controversy over his life will continue for a very long time.

:14:11.:14:16.

Undoubtedly, this is a man who left an della bore marks not only on

:14:17.:14:21.

Israel but the entire middle east. -- an della ball mark. The Treasury

:14:22.:14:27.

has said it will take responsibility of all the UK Government 's debt in

:14:28.:14:36.

the event of Scottish independence. Let's speak to our Scotland economy

:14:37.:14:41.

editor, who is in Glasgow. Just explain the significance of the

:14:42.:14:47.

move. The United Kingdom has high and fast rising debts for completely

:14:48.:14:51.

different reasons, which it has two finance by bonds. If there is a yes

:14:52.:14:57.

in the independence referendum, it is agreed that Scotland should take

:14:58.:15:02.

on a fair share of that debt. It could be between 100 and ?130

:15:03.:15:09.

billion. What we have learned today is that the Scottish Government will

:15:10.:15:12.

pay the Treasury to service those debts. At least those bonds which

:15:13.:15:17.

have been issued up until the referendum. The catch is that Alex

:15:18.:15:22.

Salmond has said if there is no agreement on the share out of

:15:23.:15:26.

assets, that includes joint control over the Bank of England and the ?

:15:27.:15:31.

he may not recognise any deal on a share of liabilities as well. The

:15:32.:15:36.

Treasury in London is reassuring investors. There is no reason for

:15:37.:15:40.

that dispute to worry them. It will not cost up -- push up the cost of

:15:41.:15:48.

borrowing. It is highly political. The First Minister is saying this is

:15:49.:15:52.

a victory for common sense over the fear that has been put out by

:15:53.:15:56.

opponents. There is a new uncertainty about the potential cost

:15:57.:15:59.

of borrowing should Scotland become independent.

:16:00.:16:06.

The way films are being classic -- classified is being changed.

:16:07.:16:23.

They call me the Pirate captain... Language used in a film from the

:16:24.:16:27.

makers of Wallis and Gromit has brought about a change in the waste

:16:28.:16:31.

and ratings will be decided in the UK. Pirates and adventure with

:16:32.:16:40.

scientists was given a new certificate on release but now there

:16:41.:16:43.

will be tighter controls on films deemed suitable for all. Children

:16:44.:16:50.

learn by copying so they copy some of the bad language, and that can be

:16:51.:16:55.

embarrassing for parents, with children repeating language to the

:16:56.:16:59.

Vic or something like that! Another area of concern was the portrayal of

:17:00.:17:06.

self harm in films such as Black Swan about the psychological

:17:07.:17:10.

struggles of a ballet dancer. Parents also worried about the

:17:11.:17:14.

sexualisation of girls in films and the normalisation of habits such as

:17:15.:17:20.

drug-taking. These things will be taken into consideration when given

:17:21.:17:28.

certification is. These films which are often violent, graphically so,

:17:29.:17:33.

and they talk of superheroes, war, destruction, death. Maybe not

:17:34.:17:37.

graphically but the intention is there. And it is not just the

:17:38.:17:44.

classification of films which will be changing. The Government has been

:17:45.:17:48.

working on a pilot scheme, meaning the same rating certificates will be

:17:49.:17:52.

applied to online pop music videos for the first time. Miley Cyrus's

:17:53.:17:59.

Wrecking Ball, which has been viewed half a million times without

:18:00.:18:03.

restriction, could be given a 15 certificate.

:18:04.:18:10.

Our top story this lunchtime, the French company Total becomes the

:18:11.:18:13.

first to invest heavily in fracking in the UK as David Cameron has the

:18:14.:18:18.

industry has backing. And, coming up... The Golden Globe

:18:19.:18:27.

goes to... 12 Years A Slave. Triumph for British director Steve McQueen

:18:28.:18:33.

but American Hostel is hot on his heels. Later, I'll have all the

:18:34.:18:37.

sport on BBC News, with England's women set out to the men by

:18:38.:18:41.

retaining the Ashes in Australia. They won the Test match by 61 runs.

:18:42.:18:56.

It has been announced in man is to open up its country and rules could

:18:57.:19:10.

be relaxed. In a rare interview, Sheikh Mohammed has called on the

:19:11.:19:13.

international community to lift all its sanctions on around. He spoke to

:19:14.:19:17.

John Sobel. These go and take goods allowed

:19:18.:19:35.

under the regime. Iran used to be Dubai's biggest trading partner by a

:19:36.:19:38.

long way. It is clear the Sheik would like to see that back again.

:19:39.:19:41.

Before we got on to matters like that, he took me on a tour of his

:19:42.:19:47.

emirate. Your highness, very nice to see you. Thank you for seeing us.

:19:48.:19:52.

This is as you don't imagine it, but it is how it started. This is where

:19:53.:20:03.

Sheik Mohammed was born and grew up. Only this light and no water. We

:20:04.:20:08.

went inside and he showed me the family album: And this is also my

:20:09.:20:14.

grandfather. That's my grandfather. This is Dubai as you probably do

:20:15.:20:20.

know it - brash, bright, big. He drove me himself out of the city to

:20:21.:20:25.

his desert hide away, where he spoke about the state of the world.

:20:26.:20:29.

Progress has been made in these talks about giving access to Iran's

:20:30.:20:34.

nuclear facilities do. You believe the time is now right to lift

:20:35.:20:40.

sanctions against Iran? I think so. And give Iran a space. You know,

:20:41.:20:49.

really Iran is our neighbour and we don't want any problem. They don't

:20:50.:20:55.

have any problem. But if the peace, you know, and they agree with

:20:56.:20:59.

Americans and the Americans agree and lift their sanction, everybody

:21:00.:21:03.

will benefit. With Ariel Sharon being buried today, he looked

:21:04.:21:07.

forward to the benefits of a peace deal between Israelis and

:21:08.:21:10.

Palestinians would bring. After the peace process, we'll do everything

:21:11.:21:14.

with Israel, you know? We'll trade with them again and we will welcome

:21:15.:21:20.

them and everything. But sign the peace process. ??FORCEWHITE He is

:21:21.:21:25.

proud of his Bedouin roots and loves his hunting birds. He has eyes like

:21:26.:21:31.

a hawk on keeping Dubai as a powerhouse, after its flirtation

:21:32.:21:35.

with danger after the economic downturn.

:21:36.:21:42.

Well, Sheik Mohammed normally doesn't do sit-down interviews. They

:21:43.:21:48.

have won Expo 2020. After the crisis that came after the World Banking

:21:49.:21:53.

crisis in 2008, he wants to proclaim that Dubai is back and thriving and

:21:54.:21:57.

that is pretty much the message he wants. That is what this place feels

:21:58.:22:03.

like at the moment. France's First Lady, Valerie

:22:04.:22:06.

Trierweiler remains in hospital after being admitted last week after

:22:07.:22:10.

a magazine printed claims that her partner, the French President,

:22:11.:22:13.

Francois Hollande, has been having an affair with an actress. Her staff

:22:14.:22:17.

say she was suffering from a severe case of the blues. Here is our Paris

:22:18.:22:22.

correspondent, Christian Fraser. The night of the Presidential election.

:22:23.:22:26.

Centre-stage Mr Hollande's girlfriend, his partner of seven

:22:27.:22:29.

years, Valerie Trierweiler. A journalist with a keen eye for

:22:30.:22:33.

politics and one who had played such a significant role in his campaign.

:22:34.:22:39.

And yet, she has always been kept in the background. Even a kiss on the

:22:40.:22:43.

night was awkward. Of late, it has been all too apparent - the distance

:22:44.:22:47.

between them has been growing. On Friday, the First Lady was admitted

:22:48.:22:51.

to hospital with a severe case of the blues, said her staff. She's in

:22:52.:22:55.

need of rest and maybe discharged later today, they added, before

:22:56.:23:00.

deciding what to do next. It is a mark of the cultural difference

:23:01.:23:04.

between Britain and France that even today the French media is teetering

:23:05.:23:10.

around the issue of Mr Hollande's private life, even Le Figaro talks

:23:11.:23:14.

about his speech tomorrow and the problems in the French economy. Make

:23:15.:23:19.

no mistake, it is the silence of the Elysee Palace on this issue that

:23:20.:23:24.

overshadows the main agenda. Even the intellectual media think there

:23:25.:23:28.

are legitimate questions to answer. She's employed by Paris Match. She

:23:29.:23:32.

continues to write taz a journalist. She is described by the Elysee as

:23:33.:23:37.

the First Lady. I think the French have felt there's an ambiguous role

:23:38.:23:45.

she has which makes its relevant to the press. This President has had

:23:46.:23:54.

problems of asserting his authority. Credibility is the key and Mr

:23:55.:23:58.

Hollande's personal life is bound up with that.

:23:59.:24:05.

The super Lidl is removing sweets and chocolates from check-out areas

:24:06.:24:11.

in its 600 stores this morvent and replacing them with -- this month

:24:12.:24:16.

and replacing them with healthy snacks.

:24:17.:24:22.

Mother of three, Katie, has struggled with her weight since she

:24:23.:24:31.

was a child. At 27 years old she weighs 27 stone and she feels deeply

:24:32.:24:36.

ashamed. I hate walking outside. I always look down, hoping no-one will

:24:37.:24:41.

look at me, really. I feel guilty that I am this size because I should

:24:42.:24:48.

have of done something about it. I should va tried harder. -- have

:24:49.:24:54.

tried harder. The scale of The Observer problem in the UK may have

:24:55.:24:58.

been -- the obesity problem in the UK may have been untsds estimated T

:24:59.:25:03.

prediction that half the population will be obese by 2020 could be

:25:04.:25:08.

outstripped. Obesity peeks four years ago with a quarter of adults

:25:09.:25:14.

in that category. 32% of women are classified as being overweight and

:25:15.:25:18.

42% of men. One of the bigger problems is the food that we buy and

:25:19.:25:23.

the beverages we consume. At the moment, they are stuffed full of

:25:24.:25:30.

sugar, fat and salt, which are the really bad ingredients. We need to

:25:31.:25:36.

have reforlation, that is to say the industry needs to readjust what they

:25:37.:25:41.

put into their food. Katie says she is desperate to lose weight, but

:25:42.:25:45.

needs help. I cannot do it on my mine. We need something in the area

:25:46.:25:50.

here, like obesity clinics. I need something to help me to get that

:25:51.:25:54.

momentum, to keep going, until I have lost the weight. She says she

:25:55.:25:58.

wants the type of support available to drug users and smokers to help

:25:59.:26:05.

people like her to lose weight. England's women cricketers have been

:26:06.:26:09.

making up of the lack-lustre performance of their male

:26:10.:26:15.

counterparts. They beat Australia in an Ashes series played in a variety

:26:16.:26:20.

of different formats. At first, it was an all too familiar

:26:21.:26:25.

needing just five wickets for victory. As the ball hurtled to the

boundary, it with us the hosts threatening an unlikely win. Not

:26:35.:26:38.

again, surely! But just when England needed a break-through, up stepped

:26:39.:26:44.

22-year-old Anya Shrubsole. Straight to square leg... The relief

:26:45.:26:49.

was plain to see. One wicket instantly became two, as Anya

:26:50.:26:53.

Shrubsole struck again. England holding their catches and their

:26:54.:26:57.

nerve, now within sight of victory. The third wicket of the day took

:26:58.:27:03.

them to the brink, before Katherine Brunt finished things off in

:27:04.:27:09.

emphatic style. That is the end of the Test match and England win.

:27:10.:27:13.

Words we have not heard too much recently. They still have to win two

:27:14.:27:17.

out of six more games to keep the Ashes. At long last, English cricket

has something to celebrate. The British director Steve McQueen

:27:25.:27:30.

is in shock after his film 12 Years A Slave won at the gold Golden Globe

:27:31.:27:36.

awards. It is the first major award show of

:27:37.:27:41.

the year. And the biggest names in the business were out in force.

:27:42.:27:47.

It was overlooked in several categories, but 12 Years A Slave won

:27:48.:27:53.

the top award. It took the film's British director, Steve McQueen, by

:27:54.:27:59.

surprise. A little bit in shock. What can I say? Firstly, I would

:28:00.:28:06.

like to thank the press. I would like to thank my wife - for finding

:28:07.:28:14.

the book 12 Years A Slave. Gravity, which was make in the UK, had four

:28:15.:28:19.

nominations. It won in only one category, for Best Director.

:28:20.:28:25.

American Hustle won three awards for Best Cod di and two of its -- comedy

:28:26.:28:28.

and two of its actors. It was a night when no movie swept

:28:29.:28:39.

the board and the acceptance speeches went on and on.

:28:40.:28:43.

I wonder, can people at home hear this music, or do they think you are

:28:44.:28:47.

getting fast before you are having a panic attack, which I am probably

:28:48.:28:52.

having. Most critics agree the standard of films this year is

:28:53.:28:56.

higher than ever. It is all the still to play for at the Oscar

:28:57.:29:00.

nominations - they are out on Thursday.

:29:01.:29:04.

Weather now. Quite a lot of sunshine across the

:29:05.:29:10.

British Isles for the first part of this week. We are seeing some hefty

:29:11.:29:14.

showers marching into the west at the moment as well. The showers in

:29:15.:29:18.

some areas accompanied by hail, thunder. We will also have squally

:29:19.:29:25.

winds lining up with this band as it works from east to west. So far into

:29:26.:29:29.

Wales, the south-west. This afternoon, the showers will go into

:29:30.:29:32.

the Midlands. They will be in the south-east for the rush hour.

:29:33.:29:36.

Further showers across Wales. As the showers cross Scotland and northern

:29:37.:29:42.

England, they will turn wintry above 400 feet.

:29:43.:29:45.

Temperatures will fall away, in rural areas as low as minus three.

:29:46.:29:49.

Any moisture on the ground is likely to turn to ice. That is one of our

:29:50.:29:54.

prime concerns first thing tomorrow. That and the potential for fog for

:29:55.:29:57.

Northern Ireland and Scotland. Ice could be a problem just about

:29:58.:30:01.

anywhere where roads have not been treated.

:30:02.:30:06.

A little bit of fog possible here too. It should clear by mid-morning.

:30:07.:30:11.

Further east, a hang-back of cloud behind the showers. Rain for Norfolk

:30:12.:30:15.

and Suffolk. A milder start. We should not have the visibility

:30:16.:30:19.

problems. A greyer morning here. It will take until the afternoon for

:30:20.:30:22.

the rain to clear. A lot of sunshine for the first part of the day. Into

:30:23.:30:27.

the west for Northern Ireland, our next system arriving around lunch

:30:28.:30:30.

time. We are looking at a wet end to the day here. Increasingly strong

:30:31.:30:35.

winds as well. In the sunshine, highs of perhaps nine Celsius.

:30:36.:30:39.

Tomorrow evening and overnight into Wednesday, that front will make its

:30:40.:30:43.

journey eastwards. Across Scotland and northern England it could bring

:30:44.:30:46.

more significant snow. Perhaps some to Snowdonia as well I will turn

:30:47.:30:51.

back to rain by the end of -- as well well. It will turn back to rain

:30:52.:30:55.

by the end of the night. A lot of rain first thing on Thursday.

:30:56.:30:59.

Sunshine in quite short supply. Northern Ireland is likely, if

:31:00.:31:04.

anything, to be the brightest and driest spot. Thursday looking

:31:05.:31:08.

clearer. Some rain in there in the east. Still some showers in the

:31:09.:31:13.

south. We are keeping a close eye on the flood warning situation because

:31:14.:31:16.

there is a lot of ground water out there and our flooding problems

:31:17.:31:20.

could return again. First half of the week improved. Second half of

:31:21.:31:25.

the week, look out for thicker cloud and linger lingering rains. That is

:31:26.:31:28.

it from
