and on BBC One, we now join the BBC's news teams where you are. | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
Good evening, and welcome to BBC Newsline, our top stories: | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
Arlene Foster says she's happy with the Health Minister's decision | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
to end the ban on blood donations from gay and bisexual men. | :00:20. | :00:29. | |
We always said such a decision should be based on science and based | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
on medical evidence and that medical evidence was there. | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
A mother says she fears for her children's lives | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
after an arson attack at her county Antrim home. | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
The Police Federation is so concerned about the number | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
of officers suffering from post traumatic stress that it's setting | :00:46. | :00:47. | |
Also on the programme: Northern Ireland's veteran defender | :00:48. | :00:58. | |
Aaron Hughes looks set to win his 100th cap in Slovakia. | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
And a few changes in the forecast this weekend | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
Arlene Foster has said she backs the Health Minister's move to end | :01:04. | :01:27. | |
the ban on blood donations from gay and bisexual men. | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
Michelle O'Neill announced the decision yesterday | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
and the First Minister said it was a decision by the whole | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
Executive and that it is supported by medical evidence. | :01:38. | :01:46. | |
Our Political Correspondent, Stephen Walker, reports she told | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
the BBC this afternoon that new surveys have been carried out. | :01:49. | :01:59. | |
Arlene Foster spent part of the day at a food business in Downpatrick. | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
She was there to open a new processing facility. Her trip | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
brought to an end a busy political week. Her party colleague became the | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
first DUP education minister to visit an Irish language school. Then | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
the Sinn Fein Health Minister, Michel O'Neill, overturned the ban | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
on gay men giving blood. Did the DUP support that move? We always said | :02:27. | :02:34. | |
such a decision should be based on science and medical evidence and at | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
the medical evidence was there. Michelle came to us with the | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
evidence and I was happy to endorse the decision she suggested. But | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
evidence was the same evidence presented to a DUP Health Minister. | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
Now, there were new surveys carried out which came to the Department of | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
Health just before purdah and then she had new evidence before and was | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
able to bring that to the Executive and I was able to endorse a | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
decision. Does all this signify the new Executive is working | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
differently? We indicated we wanted to get on with the job of governing | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
and we are confident enough to do all of that and I hope this week has | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
shown we are confident in our decisions, we are getting out there | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
and we are moving forward. This week 's Martin McGuinness is Great War | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
battlefields in France and Belgium and he laid a wreath at the Somme. I | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
think all of this symbolises the fact that since the fresh start | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
agreement in November last year there is a recognition within the | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
DUP and Sinn Fein that we have to work together and be seen to be | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
giving leadership to everybody within society. We have two shall | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
people that things would be different from the last time and you | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
are beginning to see that taking shape. The Executive is making | :03:57. | :04:02. | |
decisions, generating headlines and it is clear that there's a degree of | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
goodwill toward those now in office. The new minister from their | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
honeymoon period will not last for ever. They will face scrutiny from | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
the smaller parties as they get used to their new in opposition. | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
A mother says she's been left fearing for her children's lives | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
after an arson attack at her home in Larne. | :04:22. | :04:23. | |
In the latest of a series of attacks, a pigeon loft was set | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
on fire at the end terrace in Loranville early this morning. | :04:27. | :04:36. | |
The burnt out pigeon loft was set on fire shortly after two o'clock this | :04:37. | :04:44. | |
morning. Inside, the house was a family, including two little girls, | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
a baby and a four-year-old. Their mother was too shaken to appear on | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
camera. I woke up and I knew the shed was on fire and we had to run | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
out and wake the neighbours and rain for the fire brigade and try to get | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
the two kids out of the house. I was wondering the street not knowing | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
what to do. I feel like I am homeless. I don't know what to do | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
this evening. I am too scared to stay here. I wish you ever it was | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
would stop work it a reason why because we have no idea what we have | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
done. This isn't the first time this has happened? No, it is the fourth. | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
We cant go through it again. My little girls have seen for five | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
years in a year and I don't know what effect that will have on her. | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
Her husband needed treatment for smoke inhalation. The couple do not | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
know why they have been targeted. This pigeon coop behind me has been | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
devastated by the fire which spread to the eaves of the terraced house. | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
This place has left this family fearing for their safety in their | :05:53. | :05:54. | |
own home. The Police Federation says it's | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
so concerned about the number of officers suffering from post | :05:58. | :05:59. | |
traumatic stress and other psychological illnesses that it's | :06:00. | :06:01. | |
going to set up a fund to help them. The Federation says police officers | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
took more than 35,000 days off sick Our Home Affairs Correspondent, | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
Vincent Kearney, has The Police Federation last year | :06:10. | :06:26. | |
produced three short movies to demonstrate the kind of work | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
officers do. Suspect package in a vehicle. The message was that they | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
are no different from the people they serve. An officer, the father | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
of a daughter, finds the body of a young girl killed in a fire. This | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
actual officer has over 20 years experience and says the fictional | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
story is an accurate reflection of the real life pressures. She does | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
not want to be identified so we are calling plan. She has been off work | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
with stress for five months after being traumatised by the death of | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
she knew. We are human and we have families. We see things the average | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
person will ever encounter and some are very upsetting and serious. She | :07:11. | :07:18. | |
says there is still a macho culture. There is a stigma. They pull | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
yourself together attitude. You do feel isolated. You don't want to | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
speak to your superiors in case you thought of any less. The Police | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
Federation says many officers with far too long to see a PSNI Doctor | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
councillor. This officer, we are calling him Matthew, was involved in | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
a serious accident while on duty. Part of the specialist team that | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
recovers bodies, he has been diagnosed with PTSD. Post-traumatic | :07:46. | :07:53. | |
stress is a very debilitating illness. It is not like having | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
three. You do not have it, get over it and carry on. It is something | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
that keeps going and needs to be managed. What really matters is an | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
understanding of the and then access to the appropriate care as quickly | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
as possible. The Police Federation says the initiative it will launch | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
next week is needed because the number of officers suffering from | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
PTSD and other psychological illnesses is growing. It has been | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
obvious for a long time that the resources needed to alleviate this | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
problem have not been made available. We felt that something | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
had to be done immediately as we are now approaching a crisis point in | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
the service. The federation says it takes too long for those who need | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
help to get treatment because of the lack of resources. The truth of this | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
new initiative will be announced at an annual conference next week. The | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
Chief Constable and the new Justice Minister will be in the audience and | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
will be told this is a problem they need to do more to address. | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
The Education Authority provided misleading evidence | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
to a Stormont Committee investigating cuts to pre-school | :09:01. | :09:01. | |
provision for children in special schools. | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
The Authority says that that they made an 'oversight', | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
as our Education Correspondent, Robbie Meredith, reports. | :09:08. | :09:16. | |
Disabled children enjoying their nursery lessons. The authorities | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
planned to cut the time in school trip this rebuke from the former | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
education minister on BBC newsline. This decision is flawed. They need | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
to ensure they are providing the right and proper facilities for | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
young people with special needs. The authorities subsequently appeared at | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
the education committee to explain their position. In written evidence | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
they said that no special school principals had made contact to | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
express concern about the cuts. We have obtained these three separate | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
documents sent to the EEA from special school principals opposed to | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
the plan. One says that staff, governors and parents totally | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
disagree with that. They said was one of those he would that be cut | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
from four and a half to two and a half hours a day would have a | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
negative impact on his preschool pupils. The concerns that the | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
governors and I had was the impact it would have children learning at | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
that fine early intervention age and how much curriculum and intervention | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
we could give to them in time. In a statement, the DA said they had made | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
an oversight and would never seek to mislead the education committee. | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
There is another twist to the story, John O'Dowd ordered the DA to review | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
its decision. Two weeks ago a letter was sent to a parents think the | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
review was over, but the EEA now see the review is not over. The new | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
vice-chairman of the education isn't happy. The manner in which they have | :10:52. | :10:58. | |
dealt with this issue has left a lot of parents extremely confused and | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
angry. The authority are due to the new education minister about the | :11:04. | :11:05. | |
situation early next week. Northern Ireland's largest trade | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
union, Nipsa, is to recommend to its members that they should vote | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
for the UK to leave the EU. On Friday delegates to the union's | :11:12. | :11:14. | |
conference voted in favour of a pro-Brexit motion | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
by 68 votes to 58. Our Agriculture Correspondent, | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
Conor Macauley, has been hearing views from the farming | :11:22. | :11:23. | |
and fishing community. Michael Mosley grows crops in County | :11:24. | :11:41. | |
Down, but when you also run a sheep farm then you need specialist | :11:42. | :11:48. | |
equipment. Michael traces his Routier back hundreds of years. He | :11:49. | :11:54. | |
can remember agriculture before EU membership when people placed a lot | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
more value on food and farming. I remember that farming used to be | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
something we were proud of, you would be proud for your daughter to | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
marry someone in farming and that is the last person you would want her | :12:07. | :12:16. | |
to marry. There is stress and no money. Michael is for leave, his | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
daughter, Jane, is for a minute. She values in Europe for the political | :12:20. | :12:22. | |
stability it has brought. When we were in third year we went to the | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
workgroups and I believe in the fact the European Union was brought | :12:28. | :12:29. | |
together to stop War and we haven't had a war since then. The Tyrone | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
Monaghan border has seen it troubles. Trucks raced past the | :12:35. | :12:40. | |
former customs post. A couple of miles away is black Patrick, Derry, | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
a cross-border co-operation with thousands of farmers on its books | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
whose milk comes here from processing. Here, talk of an exit is | :12:50. | :12:56. | |
unsettling. The possibility of some form of a trade barrier, some form | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
of customs, some form of quota and some form of add on cost. He to the | :13:02. | :13:09. | |
coast and fishing communities are pretty sure about where they stand. | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
It is early morning here. People are coming in with their catch to land | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
at the fish market. Fishers will give you contrasting views about the | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
EU. When you come somewhere like here, they are all the one-way. | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
Definitely out. It is an easy decision. Trevor blames the EU for | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
decimating the once thriving industry. A craft of regulations | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
determine when, where and how he fishes. What he catches, how much of | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
it. For him, a UK arrangement is far more attractive. Instead of having | :13:44. | :13:51. | |
to kowtow to regulation from Brussels, the are so far removed | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
from here that they do not understand, they haven't a clue. | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
With just 20 days left, voters have to calculate the cost of the | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
decision they will take and there is a nod to weigh in the balance. | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
We'll be hearing more about the preparations | :14:08. | :14:09. | |
for the Euros in just a moment, but first a sneak preview | :14:10. | :14:12. | |
of a sideways look at what's ahead for football fans | :14:13. | :14:14. | |
Comedians Colin Murphy and Jake O'Kane were dispatched | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
by BBC Northern Ireland to test the waters. | :14:19. | :14:20. | |
Helen Jones got their first impressions. | :14:21. | :14:30. | |
They say they don't know anything about football. They don't even like | :14:31. | :14:40. | |
it. I know who he is. They say because are best wasn't available, | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
the BBC asked them to embark on a voyage of discovery. So, they go to | :14:44. | :14:55. | |
France. And of all the hotels north of Paris, the choose this one. It is | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
not easy for us to understand the Irish accent. We have listened. If | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
somebody said do you have a power shower? They hooked up with fans. Of | :15:05. | :15:15. | |
all the people we met, they were legends. Win, lose or draw, they | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
will have a great time this summer. They try a local delicacy and try to | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
pass off their carry-out a delicacy. I will present it as it is normally | :15:28. | :15:33. | |
presented. What advice would you give for anyone going over? Don't | :15:34. | :15:39. | |
drive, on those circumstances get on the roads. There are no aliens. Stay | :15:40. | :15:47. | |
on the footpath. Don't cross the roads. He is just running there with | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
a helmet on. They are kamikaze drivers. Be careful with the food. | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
Bring a lot of crisps and bacon with you. If you pointers, a heads up for | :15:57. | :16:04. | |
the main event which kicks off in Northern Ireland it on the 12th of | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
June and the night after that for the Republic of Ireland in Paris. | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
What a double act and you can see that programme on BBC One at a | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
quarter to 11 tomorrow night. Stormont hasn't always been a place | :16:16. | :16:17. | |
of harmony but it will be this evening as it hosts some | :16:18. | :16:20. | |
of our top country stars. It's all part of BBC Music Day | :16:21. | :16:22. | |
and across the UK the BBC is using music as a way of bringing | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
generations and communities together and Northern Ireland | :16:26. | :16:28. | |
is no different. Our reporter, Ita Dungan, | :16:29. | :16:30. | |
is at Stormont for us where a very special event | :16:31. | :16:32. | |
is about to get underway. It is a glorious evening here. As | :16:33. | :16:40. | |
you can see, Stormont is looking absolutely stunning in the evening | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
sunshine. None of the action is happening outside here, it is all | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
happening inside beyond the revolving door. This is a unique BBC | :16:49. | :16:55. | |
music Day event and inside parliament buildings, there will be | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
music in every corner. In the great Hall, the Long Gallery, the Senate | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
chamber and along those famous steps. There will be musical talent | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
from both sides of the Irish border. BBC radio Ulster School choir of the | :17:11. | :17:18. | |
year, the Ulster Orchestra and the gentleman next to me, Nathan Carter, | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
country music star. Good evening. Thank you for making it out this | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
evening. I am sure you have played in lots of different venues. Ever | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
played in a parliament building? Never, this is my first time. I was | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
in London Palladium and that was procedures but this is were there | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
with the best of them. I will sing a couple of songs tonight and the | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
first time performing with the Ulster Orchestra. Delighted to be in | :17:46. | :17:52. | |
such a fantastic place and the weather is unbelievable. This BBC | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
music day is about celebrating different generations, musical | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
styles, how has that seen you playing why can we do with the | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
Ulster Orchestra? It was very different. It is a 50 piece | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
orchestra with brand-new arrangements. It was real fun. It is | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
something different. I'd love to do different challenges and put myself | :18:18. | :18:23. | |
in tricky situations. This was new and challenging but I think it | :18:24. | :18:26. | |
sounds great. In my opinion it sounds really good. The atmosphere | :18:27. | :18:32. | |
is great. Everyone is buzzing. There are cameras and people everywhere. | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
These nations everywhere. I was backstage and some of the musicians | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
are unbelievable. I am definitely amongst the finest musicians in | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
Ireland. Keep your eye on the conductor and if you didn't get | :18:48. | :18:50. | |
tickets to see it this evening, it is on BBC Two at half nine this | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
evening and I am sure everyone will enjoy a very special evening inside | :18:55. | :18:56. | |

There could still be a reason to celebrate on the pitch tomorrow. | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
With Aaron Hughes on the verge of winning his 100th international cap. | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
At 1.I never thought I would do it. From when Michael came back in and | :20:07. | :20:10. | |
having a chat with him, he said a the things that resonated and made | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
me think about it and I thought it would be quite something. To look | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
back and it is something no one can take away. When Aaron Hughes glued | :20:22. | :20:28. | |
on that made his debut, also against Slovakia back in 1998, 15 of the | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
other 22 squad members had even left primary school. The longevity of his | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
long career has been lost on manager. You couldn't ask for a | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
better player to manage in terms of how he prepares. He is a massive | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
player in his squad. He might not have started many games recently but | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
I trust him immensely. He is a player actually has a to offer. The | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
players and manager will be here for around an hour at this evening. | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
Their vinyl training session after a four-day camp in Austria. The game | :21:01. | :21:05. | |

and winding road to France was Cork. The five day training camp is over | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
and its now just ten days until their opening game | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
of the tournament against Sweden. BBC Newslines reporter | :21:19. | :21:20. | |
with the Republic of Ireland squad The captain was on his bike as a | :21:21. | :21:28. | |
majority of the squad trained in the sunshine. Alongside Robbie Keane, | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
the only other player involved in the session was Jonathan Walters the | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
work individually as he recovers from a calf problem. There is a | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
relaxed attitude amongst the group after a productive week together. I | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
am burnt and everything. It is brilliant down here. We have had a | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
night in the opera house, a golf day yesterday. We have had a lot of hard | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
training sessions. It has been good. A lot of countries are going to get | :21:58. | :22:03. | |
the sun in Europe but we got it here in court. There has been time for a | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
little fun before the focus turns to France. We feel good. I feel fit. | :22:09. | :22:18. | |
Playing 90 minutes week in week out at club level brings that out. I | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
want to keep pushing and I am still firing. The players have been giving | :22:22. | :22:27. | |
the we get off after this five-day training camp. They will take part | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
in sessions in Dublin early next week before heading to their team | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
based in Versailles ahead of their opening fixture against Sweden. | :22:36. | :22:42. | |
This Sunday sees the number four in the Ulster football championship. | :22:43. | :22:59. | |
They are the best in Ulster, defending champions and keen to hold | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
on to their title. Monaghan may have disappointed supporters of the all | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
Ireland last year but in the Ulster championship, they have collected | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
two of the past three titles. Sunday will mark 14 months exactly since | :23:15. | :23:19. | |
they achieved a win in the championship lead. Relegation from | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
division 17 games and seven defeats, it has been a shocking defeat for | :23:25. | :23:27. | |
down and they take on the best impostor. You are going into the | :23:28. | :23:34. | |
lion 's den and it doesn't come any more difficult than that. We will | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
embrace that challenge is done things always have done and we are | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
looking forward to it. With the league campaign having so many | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
players established stepping back we had six or seven players every game. | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
They have equipped themselves well and it will stand them well in the | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
championship. The coming in in a nice way and they have been written | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
off to a degree so it is a great position for them coming in. We know | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
we have two be at the top of our game to be mentally right and to put | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
in a big performance to get passed down. Monaghan might have their eye | :24:10. | :24:14. | |
and a bigger prize but it starts this Sunday against down. At one be | :24:15. | :24:22. | |
live on BBC Two and radio Ulster. At the Memorial Tournament | :24:23. | :24:24. | |
in Dublin, Ohio, Rory McIlroy is looking to make ground | :24:25. | :24:26. | |
in his second round Overnight he was seven | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
shots off the lead. He is 11 shots off the lead. Rory | :24:30. | :24:42. | |
might be struggling in the Sun one person not struggle in the sun is | :24:43. | :24:44. | |
Cecilia who can tell us what is in store for the weekend. | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
If you have been sitting in the office of weak looking out at the | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
sunshine, you will be done for it tonight because we can start and the | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
warm weather will continue into the weekend, but there will be a key | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
changes. Some sunshine to come at if you change is as well. What you will | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
notice is that it will feel more humid through the weekend and into | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
next week and that means warmer nights to come as well. Some | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
sunshine but there will be some cloud, especially tomorrow and, as | :25:17. | :25:20. | |
we move into the new week, there will be a growing risk of showers | :25:21. | :25:24. | |
and thunderstorms. It is quite as here this evening. It is gorgeous | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
everywhere. A beautiful evening for listening to music. Some cloud will | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
increase across East. Temperatures will drop as low as they have done | :25:33. | :25:37. | |
on recent nights and tomorrow that means we will have a clear day. | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
Still warm and still mostly dry. Tomorrow morning cloudier skies in | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
many places to start with. Very sunshine across the south and | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
south-west. It will brighten up as the date goes on and despite there | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
being worked out, temperatures will get to 18 or 19 degrees and one or | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
two spot at 220 degrees. The priest is on the east coast so good here. A | :26:01. | :26:06. | |
small chance of a shower pricking out tomorrow but most places will | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
have a dry day. The best part of the day will be toward the evening. | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
Still good enough for a barbecue. Largely dry tomorrow. Some cloud | :26:17. | :26:19. | |
around. Not as good as recent nights. A one night and as we move | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
into Sunday, sunnier skies are back and temperatures will reach the low | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
20s. Those temperatures could trigger one or two thunderstorms in | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
the west by the end of the day. For the Derry Marathon on Sunday it will | :26:34. | :26:36. | |
be warm, it would get humid as the day goes on. It will get | :26:37. | :26:44. | |
increasingly warm and sunny. More sunshine to come next week. | :26:45. | :26:47. | |
Temperatures in the low 20s but possibly one or two thunderstorms as | :26:48. | :26:50. | |
well. Have a great evening. Our late summary | :26:51. | :26:52. | |
