I'll be talking live to manager Michael O'Neill. | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
And tomorrow may not be as windy as today but wind | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
and rain remain features of the weather through the week. | :01:13. | :01:22. | |
The Taoiseach says he expects a political deal might be concluded | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
He's had a busy day, first meeting the Prime Minister | :01:27. | :01:33. | |
in Downing Street and now, having arrived in Belfast a short time ago, | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
he's meeting Peter Robinson and Martin McGuinness this evening. | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
Our Political Editor, Mark Devenport, is at Stormont. | :01:39. | :01:46. | |
It's been a day marked by optimism about a deal | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
but precious little detail about what any agreement might involve. | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
Enda Kenny is here in Northern Ireland tonight, | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
but his first official engagement was a speech to the annual | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
conference of the Confederation of British industry at a London hotel. | :01:59. | :02:08. | |
And Kenny travelled to London to make the case for Britain staying in | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
the European Union. He told business leaders that a UK withdrawal would | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
cause economic damage on both sides of the Irish border. Research also | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
found that Northern Ireland could be the most adverts they affected | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
region in the UK in the event of Britain leaving the union. This | :02:28. | :02:34. | |
region in the UK in the event of would be and is extremely worrying. | :02:35. | :02:36. | |
In Downing Street, the two prime ministers discussed Europe and the | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
latest state of the Stormont talks. Taoiseach referred to document | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
central to the negotiations and said he would not what he called his | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
government's revised commitments to the A5 road project. We discussed | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
Northern Ireland and the issues that are of importance their. These | :02:57. | :02:58. | |
discussions have been going on for quite some time. We have been | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
discussing various points over the last number of weeks and I would be | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
hopeful that having had briefings from the Minster for foreign affairs | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
in respect to these discussions they might be able to be concluded this | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
week. At Stormont the Irish Foreign Minister was back at the negotiating | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
table. If the wind is be going to blow in a new direction, it would | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
depend on what looks like a warming relationship between Peter Robinson | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
and Martin McGuinness. They think is serious about coming to a new | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
approach that bears down in an effective way on those who have | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
heart problems in the past? I do. And I believe people think I am | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
serious also. What is required in the course of the next while as for | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
all politicians in this house to join with us in our approach to | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
bearing down on those who think it is a good idea to go out and shoot | :03:56. | :04:03. | |
job Davidson in east Belfast or Kevin McDine. After weeks of | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
discussions, and the talks have looked like breaking down, they may | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
potentially reach a successful conclusion this week. What do you | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
think is speculation that the media deal later this week? There is | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
speculation, what is unclear is whether we might get a deal which | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
all parties will buy into, or a deal that is just the DUP and Sinn Fein. | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
It seems clear that Ulster Unionist Party moved into opposition are | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
unlikely to support all the elements of a new deal. The DUP and Sinn Fein | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
are properly most hopeful about the Alliance party, but Alliance sources | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
are telling us they still have not seen the detail they want but there | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
will be making sure there is a mature attitude to finances as part | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
of any agreement. Will this be the swan song of Peter Robinson? If a | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
deal does happen, is that really him saying goodbye? We will find all | :05:01. | :05:08. | |
this out later this month. Mark giving us on top of all the | :05:09. | :05:10. | |
political developments today. The police are investigating | :05:11. | :05:12. | |
when an oil tank fire that damaged flats in Newcastle in the early | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
hours of this morning is linked to As Natalie Lindo reports four flats | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
were damaged when the fire started and spread | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
in Bracken Avenue in the town. As the embers die down the search is | :05:24. | :05:30. | |
underway as to clues to why or how the blaze broke out. Police and | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
service tankard was treated deliberately and are treating it as | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
arson. They are investigating a link between this and several other fires | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
in the area, some as far back as the summer. We saw the oil tankers | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
bonfire, we now in the last eight weeks we have been working with the | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
housing executives and other organisations in this area and we | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
have seen other incidents of this type. Are treating it as such at | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
this time and investigations will see if that is proved to be the | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
case. No one was injured but it could have been a different | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
outcome. 50 firefighters were called to a block of flats at about 3:20am | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
after the file from an oil tank spread to other properties. Homes | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
were evacuated residents were housed in other accommodation in Newcastle | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
town centre. Some have been allowed to return home. I was shocked and | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
scared. Added not the world's guide to happen. I did not know of the | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
rainy casualties or how far the extent of the flames would carry on | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
that night. They had to get more fire engines down to the estate to | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
try to keep it under control. Mac it was pretty frightening. Housing | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
executive contractors will work to repair the damage to its properties | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
and make the flats safe. Many elderly residents will not be able | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
to return home until that work is finished. | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
An inquest has been told that a man found with a serious head injury at | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
a caravan site in Co Fermanagh in 2008 had been involved in a fight. | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
James McGuaran, who was 41 and came from Kestrel Grange in Dunmurry | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
near Belfast, died two days later in the Erne Hospital in Enniskillen. | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
James McGuaran's body was found outside the caravan where he had | :07:11. | :07:21. | |
been staying in May 2008. The caravan was owned by this man, | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
Robert McCracken, he told the court had been a fight between the victim | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
and another man, Robert Kempson, in the early hours of the morning after | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
a night of heavy drinking following a day at the North West 200. Under | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
cross-examination Robert McCracken admitted in court that he did not | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
tell the truth in his statements to the police. In one he said he saw | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
his friend Robert Kempson threw punches at James McGuaran, but now | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
says he did not see the fight. The court was told that after the | :07:54. | :07:55. | |
altercation the victim was left lying on the ground outside the | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
caravan. And that Robert McCracken, Robert Kempson and another man left | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
in there to drive off home. 18 hours after the incident, James McGuaran | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
was admitted to hospital where he later died. His sister and also gave | :08:08. | :08:15. | |
evidence. She said her family wanted to know why her brother had died and | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
why he was left all day outside the caravan without medical attention. | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
The Ulster rugby team has been criticised by some unionist | :08:25. | :08:26. | |
politicians for not wearing a poppy on their jerseys during a match | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
But the club say they pay their respects to the victims | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
of the wars in a different way, by holding a memorial service | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
Before Ulster's game yesterday in Wales there was an act of | :08:40. | :08:57. | |
remembrance. Ulster's opponents had poppies on their shirts, the Ulster | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
team did not. Some Unionist politicians are angry about what | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
happened. I am appalled. I regard it as a calculated snub to Remembrance | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
Day. They chose to play on Remembrance Sunday, and yet they | :09:14. | :09:20. | |
chose to not have a copy as their opponents had on their shirts. -- | :09:21. | :09:30. | |
poppy. You know watches rather than plays rugby, and says he was | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
disappointed not to see Claire was wearing poppies yesterday. The fact | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
the matches taking place on Reverend Sunday, they should have been given | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
the option, and should anybody have decided not to wear whatever reason, | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
but I think that would have been many who would have wanted and | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
should have had the right to do so. But Ulster Rugby have defended their | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
actions. In a statement they pointed out that they have this permanent | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
war memorial as part of their stadium. In fact, the new stadium is | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
built around it, and every year the players, management and coaches take | :10:06. | :10:12. | |
part in a remembrance service here. To top English rugby teams played | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
yesterday, Gloucester and wasps. They also had an act of remembrance | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
but did not wear poppies, and a former Army captain says they should | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
not be criticised and neither should also. I think in many ways it is | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
slightly unfair. Ulster Rugby did have a remembrance service, they had | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
a one-minute silence, and then we went to play. I think wearing a | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
poppy is really a choice, and people need to have choice whether they | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
wear a poppy or not. Ulster are making headlines on and off the | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
pitch. Victory year yesterday gave them their first away win of the | :10:50. | :10:51. | |
season. One of the keys for growing | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
our local economy is growing The official target for growth | :10:56. | :10:57. | |
in manufacturing exports over the past four years was 20%, | :10:58. | :11:05. | |
but just 5% was achieved. Our Economics and | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
Business Editor John Campbell has been to one successful exporter that | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
will soon be shipping sets This is the animated film Hotel | :11:12. | :11:28. | |
Transylvania, and this is a joinery workshop where that haunted hotel is | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
being turned into a theme park attraction. At the other end of the | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
workshop artists are producing a Ghostbusters set. These will soon be | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
shipped off to do by. This is an example of a company that has got it | :11:45. | :11:50. | |
right. It has the skills to find a profitable niche and can compete | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
globally. Its push into the night started with a invest Northern | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
Ireland trade mission, but the boss says that was only the beginning. | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
Cracking markets is hard work. In the year we were there at 12 times | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
before we got to the contract stage whether client. Any company | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
investing overseas, they have to put that commitment and dedication into | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
it. There is a huge cost involved in trying to win contracts on a global | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
basis, but I think if you are determined and you have the | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
resources, it is achievable. Exports are important because companies | :12:27. | :12:29. | |
cannot expand very much if they are only | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
cannot expand very much if they are local market. It was strength in | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
exports that help get the Republic's economy back contract. | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
This company has found a way to grow its export business, but that puts | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
it in a minority of local firms. Indeed, the number of firms | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
exporting has been falling in recent years. In 2008 the role must 1800 | :12:51. | :12:59. | |
goods exporters. Last year numbers were below 1600. Why has our | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
performance been so under powered? were below 1600. Why has our | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
We have had a number of challenges, obviously the global downturn had a | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
major impact on some of our export markets. We have had the Eurozone | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
crisis which is caused uncertainty, and also currency fluctuations. | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
There have been factors outside our control, but we | :13:23. | :13:24. | |
There have been factors outside our of good exporters and companies | :13:25. | :13:26. | |
There have been factors outside our are achieving great things in export | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
markets. Some recent figures suggest things may be picking up, and | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
official surveys and reflect service sector exports. But it is a major | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
challenge to get more firms to be as export focused as this one. | :13:39. | :13:40. | |
Treatment for age-related hearing loss could be moved out of the | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
A pilot scheme is being designed which will allow patients to go to | :13:45. | :13:51. | |
a private provider with the bill paid by the health service. | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
Nearly 300,000 people in Northern Ireland are living with hearing | :13:58. | :14:09. | |
loss. Jim is one of them. Any treatment he gets takes place in the | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
Royal Victoria Austell in Belfast. We had good service until he | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
repairs, we travelled into Belfast and discovered that the out of hours | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
had ceased, it was no longer available, and have any treatment at | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
all we would have to make an appointment. He couldn't use the | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
form. I have to ring up, make an appointment, and the time wait, we | :14:33. | :14:40. | |
don't know. It is unknown. It can take months to get an assessment and | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
even longer to be fitted with a hearing aid. Not being able to | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
communicate for this long can take its toll. He would not hear someone | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
at the door, he would not hear the phone. If there was an alarm and I | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
was out of the house he would not hear anything at all. For the sake | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
of a few seconds to replace a little tube, that does not exist any | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
longer. You have to ring up. It is hoped the new scheme would change | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
all that, it would move age-related hearing loss out of the hospital and | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
into the high Street, treating it the way I cite deterioration is | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
currently managed. Win when people attend a hospital bed think of a | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
problem or complaint as a medical issue, whereas if they could seek | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
help or so assistance were locally, it does tend to remove the stigma | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
that a lot of people attach to hearing loss. Any new initiative | :15:28. | :15:33. | |
would have to make sure it is value for money, but is also effective in | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
terms of the clinical effectiveness, and would mean that it is providing | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
a service that is appropriate. Using the private sector to reduce waiting | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
lists is not new, but moving care away from hospitals and onto the | :15:49. | :15:50. | |
high street could be a more significant shift. When the pilot | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
will take place is yet to be confirmed. | :15:56. | :15:57. | |
Weekend Remembrance commemorations concentrated | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
on the military who died in the World Wars and other conflicts. | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
This year also marks the centenary of another front line unit. | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
The St John Ambulance set up a field hospital to treat casualties from | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
Mervyn Jess met a Larne woman who has compiled | :16:11. | :16:17. | |
Isabel Apsley is a member of the St John Ambulance but is also the owner | :16:18. | :16:32. | |
of her own museum dedicated to the history of this voluntary service | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
organisation. Amongst the many artefacts she has gathered over the | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
years is an album of photographs recording the nursing | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
organisation's First World War field hospital in the front line in | :16:45. | :16:52. | |
France. At the beginning of the war St John Ambulance volunteers to | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
supply a hospital. The War office accepted the offer and by September | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
19 15, 100 years ago, the hospital was ready for the intake of | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
patients. It was among several voluntary hospitals on the site, but | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
this one had a strong local connection. Hospitals were sponsored | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
by donations from people across Ireland. And medical staff from | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
Alsace and further afield served in it. Three of the sisters were from | :17:24. | :17:29. | |
Ireland. One of them, Molly McGuinness, was from Ballykelly, and | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
she actually got the military medal after the second bombing incident. | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
The hospital was bombed? Yes, the hospital was bombed in 1818 has was | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
the entire hospital complex at the time. This is the ECG machine. The | :17:46. | :17:53. | |
doctor took his own ECG machine to the hospital from Belfast. This is a | :17:54. | :18:01. | |
Belfast man. At any one given time out of the 18 medical officers based | :18:02. | :18:08. | |
at that hospital, four of them would have been from the Belfast area. | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
After the war the hospital was demobbed, but the medical expertise | :18:15. | :18:17. | |
was not wasted. A dozen boxes of x-ray plates were shipped to the | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
anatomy department at Queens University, and the laboratory | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
equipment was purchased with funds raised in County Antrim and donated | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
to a pathology unit at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast. | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
Remembering the work of medics during the world wars. | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
The Northern Ireland football team is at Belfast City Hall tonight - | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
The Northern Ireland team that has made it to next summer's Euro 2016 | :18:41. | :18:52. | |
tournament are all here in Belfast this evening. | :18:53. | :18:54. | |
They are special guests at a reception at City Hall being | :18:55. | :18:56. | |
I'll be joined by Manager Michael O'Neill later. | :18:57. | :19:08. | |
Glentoran named former Manchester City player and Republic | :19:09. | :19:10. | |
of Ireland International Alan Kernaghan as their new manager. | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
He's on an 18 month contract - and has ambitious plans. | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
This is the new manager, and he is demanding success. We have been | :19:18. | :19:29. | |
struggling this season but one at the weekend, and the new manager has | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
high expectations. Silverware, certainly. Getting really close to | :19:35. | :19:41. | |
the league title would be a major plus for us. But failing that, we | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
can still do better in Europe and we have done so just a general | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
progression, getting in the top two would be a major start. Although he | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
played for Northern Ireland at underage level, he was ineligible to | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
play at senior level... But he was qualified to play for the Republic | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
of Ireland and down to 22 caps. More recently he coached at Rangers and | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
the IFA, but could he win the league with The headlines:? -- Glentoran? | :20:13. | :20:24. | |
Next season I would definitely hope to be in the top to at least. His | :20:25. | :20:34. | |
first assignment this weekend will be against the | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
first assignment this weekend will again at the weekend. The roles of | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
three goals from Darren McAuley, this one the pick of the bunch. | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
Rory McIlroy continues to lead the standings in the Race to Dubai | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
after his 11th place finish at the WGC Champions tournament Shanghai. | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
His final round of 66, or six under par, yesterday left him | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
11 under for the tournament - six shots behind the eventual | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
Belfast Boxer Jamie Conlan is targeting a World Title fight in the | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
next 12 months after a comfortable victory in Dublin on Saturday night. | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
The super-flyweight comfortably overcame his Argentinean opponent | :21:18. | :21:18. | |
Working the pad before entering the ring, Jamie Conlan had a point to | :21:19. | :21:35. | |
prove. Knock down twice in his last bout, the 29-year-old picked himself | :21:36. | :21:45. | |
up to win impressively on points. He was taking no chances this time | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
round. The gulf in class between Intercontinental champion and a | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
South American opponent was obvious as common controlled the fight. -- | :21:56. | :22:04. | |
Jamie Conlan controlled the fight. It's big. Especially after this we | :22:05. | :22:06. | |
have plans for big things. We're in a good position with the WBO, number | :22:07. | :22:15. | |
five in the world. It was only in a ground fight, but if I had lost a | :22:16. | :22:18. | |
thing would have been down. A loss as the worst thing that can happen. | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
How far do you think a title shot is for yourself? And don't forget is | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
that far. I plan to get it hopefully in the next 12 or 18 months. As he | :22:29. | :22:35. | |
steps up in class, he is a world-class fighter. We would hope | :22:36. | :22:42. | |
for the world title, a meaningful fight, just keep progressing and | :22:43. | :22:45. | |
developing him as a fighter and building him up the rankings. | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
Ultimately wants to fight for the world title and be world champion. | :22:50. | :22:56. | |
Allan McGregor is a mixed martial arts star in the USC. It | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
Allan McGregor is a mixed martial see. I wanted to come and support | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
this. It was packed tonight. Hopefully this is the start of | :23:06. | :23:06. | |
many. What did you Hopefully this is the start of | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
performance? He was good, clean, some good, great fights. Jamie | :23:13. | :23:17. | |
performance? He was good, clean, Conlan has gained a superstar | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
fanning Colin McGregor. It is now 15 fights and 15 wins. His next boat | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
looks to be the biggest of his career. He would be back in the ring | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
and fully in February hopefully fighting for a world title. Michael | :23:32. | :23:38. | |
O'Neill is still making his fighting for a world title. Michael | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
so we have a different guest. Great to be in City Hall tonight. Hasn't | :23:44. | :23:48. | |
sunk in what you and your players have achieved? - people are aware of | :23:49. | :23:56. | |
the achievement of the lads. To come and listen to them, it shows that | :23:57. | :24:03. | |
the staff but was on the background can come together. It is nice to | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
celebrate the achievement, but this is just the start. Yammer on of | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
friendlies before the Euros. We don't get that many opportunities | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
for international, it is a chance for the manager to bring us | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
together. It will give us food for thought for squad selections. We | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
will have a couple of games before the team is announced. All the boys | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
array to go for these friendlies. Have you allowed yourself to dream | :24:36. | :24:38. | |
who you might draw in the group stages for the Euros? I think last | :24:39. | :24:48. | |
time Northern Ireland qualified was even born. Just to be there and get | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
the opportunity to play against world players would be | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
unbelievable. You're making me feel old! Fights for joining us, and we | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
will hear from Michael O'Neill on our lead built on this evening. | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
Northern Ireland will be playing in a new strip this Friday night | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
against Latvia. It was revealed today, has been not been that | :25:11. | :25:13. | |
popular with the fans that we have canvassed in an online poll, 73% of | :25:14. | :25:19. | |
you said you unfortunately did not like it. But who cares as long as | :25:20. | :25:21. | |
they win? Now let's get the weather. We have | :25:22. | :25:38. | |
some lively weather heading our way, as if today was not lively enough! | :25:39. | :25:41. | |
We're expecting some strong winds throughout the week. Some spells of | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
rain but mainly quite mild. At least up until Thursday. A cold snap on | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
Friday and unsettled again for the weekend. Not only have we had the | :25:51. | :25:54. | |
wind, we have had the cloud and spells of rain. Still quite blustery | :25:55. | :26:01. | |
for applying this evening. The breeze continues to ease a little | :26:02. | :26:05. | |
through the course of the night but stays down with rain and drizzle | :26:06. | :26:08. | |
pushing through. More persistent rain in the north and West. It is a | :26:09. | :26:15. | |
mild night, 1213 Celsius. As you going to tomorrow, more rain in the | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
forecast. The breeze still quite noticeable. Some dry spells towards | :26:22. | :26:28. | |
the south-east. Most of the rain in the North and West. As the weather | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
front moves and that will gather and push into the Western counties later | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
in the morning and then continues to track towards the Eastern counties. | :26:39. | :26:43. | |
Some places may stay damp later in the afternoon. Elsewhere, drier | :26:44. | :26:51. | |
weather comes in behind, the odd right lens before the sun sets. It | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
will be a bright day, possibly even 17 Celsius. Tomorrow night is | :26:56. | :27:00. | |
slightly different. Fewer showers, dry weather, still breezy but it can | :27:01. | :27:09. | |
become cool in the countryside. Wednesday may be the quietest day of | :27:10. | :27:12. | |
the week. Still a breeze and some showers, but some dry and bright | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
gaps and it will feel fresh. It all changes again through the latter | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
part of the week with some wet and windy weather to move in on | :27:23. | :27:25. | |
Thursday, perhaps gale-force winds, and a cold snap sets in | :27:26. | :27:27. | |
