:01:27. > :01:28.has described the killers of former Continuity IRA leader Tommy Crossan

:01:29. > :01:34.as criminals masquerading as republicans. She was speaking at one

:01:35. > :01:37.of a number of events held to commemorate the anniversary of the

:01:38. > :01:45.Easter Rising, as Louise Cullen reports. The main republican parade

:01:46. > :01:50.in Belfast made its way from the west of the city to a cemetery. The

:01:51. > :01:55.good weather brought hundreds onto the streets to watch. The Easter

:02:20. > :02:29.violence which featured in the keynote speaker's address. There is

:03:21. > :03:24.around 170 members of the Navy marched.

:03:25. > :03:27.Meanwhile a man is still being questioned about the murder of Tommy

:03:28. > :03:30.Crossan on Friday. The 26-year-old was arrested yesterday morning.

:03:31. > :03:33.The Fire and Rescue Service have been dealing with a serious gorse

:03:34. > :03:36.fire close to Newcastle. At its height, approximately ten acres of

:03:37. > :03:40.land at Ballagh Bridge on Ballagh Road, were alight and the flames

:03:41. > :03:43.were fanned by high winds. A short time ago, the blaze was said to be

:03:44. > :03:46.under control. Well, winter storms earlier this

:03:47. > :03:52.year have changed the shape of a number of our beaches. And as

:03:53. > :03:56.lifeguards from the RNLI go on duty for the summer season, they're

:03:57. > :04:00.warning people to be careful at the seaside. When the weather is good,

:04:01. > :04:07.there is no better place to be than the beach. Keeping a watchful eye,

:04:08. > :04:10.the RNLI lifeguards. They are back on our beaches for the first time

:04:11. > :04:15.this year. It might be sunny today, but last winter's stormy weather has

:04:16. > :04:20.had a big impact on our coastline. It has changed quite a bit due to

:04:21. > :04:25.some of the dramatic weather we saw over the winter. Primarily, a lot of

:04:26. > :04:29.high tides and powerful ways, which have changed the shape of the

:04:30. > :04:33.beach, often creating deep channels for the water to flow which can

:04:34. > :04:38.cause recurrence. The lifeguards are manning five beaches over the Easter

:04:39. > :04:42.break. The sun might have disappeared for now, but last year

:04:43. > :04:45.was one of Northern Ireland's hottest summers in recent times,

:04:46. > :04:50.which meant thousands of people flocked here to the beach. It was

:04:51. > :04:56.also a busy summer for the RNLI, and lifeguards had to come to the aid of

:04:57. > :05:01.about 330 people, up 153 the year before. It is more a day for walking

:05:02. > :05:04.the dog then taking a dip, but beach-goers said they were still

:05:05. > :05:07.pleased the lifeguards were still here. There are a lot of kids here

:05:08. > :05:17.during the summer. Safety is paramount. It is vitally important.

:05:18. > :05:22.They need to be on the beach. The advice to say that truckers stay

:05:23. > :05:27.safe is to swim between the flags and check that there are lifeguards

:05:28. > :05:28.on duty. Onto the weather now, and what does

:05:29. > :05:35.Easter Monday have in store Onto the weather now, and what does

:05:36. > :05:38.for us? Good evening. It has been a gloriously sunny evening for much of

:05:39. > :05:41.Northern Ireland. Things are changing now and we will have a lot

:05:42. > :05:47.more cloud than the forecast as we go through the week ahead. It will

:05:48. > :05:51.be breezy at times, but it will not be wet all the time. Another

:05:52. > :05:55.glorious day today for Scotland and Northern Ireland. Cloudier and much

:05:56. > :05:59.wider across parts of England and Wales, particularly the South, or

:06:00. > :06:04.they had some torrential downpours. The cloud is feeding him towards us

:06:05. > :06:07.and the cloud will edge in this evening on a fresh easterly breeze

:06:08. > :06:13.and there will be a few showers around as well. I think we could see

:06:14. > :06:21.some showers in the far south by the end of the night. It is dry and

:06:22. > :06:31.fairly mild come at no lower than 6-8 degrees in towns and cities.

:06:32. > :06:34.Into tomorrow, we are looking at a cloudier read your day and there

:06:35. > :06:42.will be showers around, particularly during the morning. The North still

:06:43. > :06:45.mainly dry. A few showers across the Republic as well, but bright spells

:06:46. > :06:50.as well, and for much of England, Scotland and Wales, the day started

:06:51. > :06:55.out dry. There will be some bright spots coming through but there will

:06:56. > :06:58.be some downpours in southern areas and drifting into Wales during the

:06:59. > :07:04.latter part of the afternoon. Some of these will be quite thundery as

:07:05. > :07:08.temperatures rise to 19 degrees. For Northern Ireland, well, we might get

:07:09. > :07:12.one or two showers drifting into the South later on, but the afternoon

:07:13. > :07:16.looking largely dry, and it should brighten up as we head into the

:07:17. > :07:21.evening. Highs of either 15 or 16 degrees. For the rest of the week,

:07:22. > :07:26.rather cloudy and breezy and particularly damp on Wednesday.

:07:27. > :07:28.That is it until 10:15pm. Keep up to date on Facebook and Twitter. Enjoy

:07:29. > :07:39.the rest of your evening. Goodbye. MUSIC: "Gods And Monsters"
