condition in hospital after she was struck | :01:13. | :01:24. | |
by a scrambler bike last night. Two boys aged 15 and 17 | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
have been arrested. It happened at Colin Glen Forest | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
Park on the outskirts of West Belfast, from where we can | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
join our reporter Rick Faragher now. It was around this time yesterday | :01:37. | :01:51. | |
that this woman was walking her dog beside this lake at Colin Glen on | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
the outskirts of West Belfast. On a sunny evening as it was yesterday | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
this is a popular place. This mother was enjoying an evening stroll when | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
she was struck by somebody using a scrambler bike. Tonight there is | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
serious concern for her health as she remains in a critical condition | :02:14. | :02:14. | |
in hospital. Colin Glen Forest Park | :02:15. | :02:15. | |
on the outskirts of West Belfast is popular with walkers, | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
runners and dog owners. The woman is a mother of three young | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
children and understood to be She was struck by a scrambler bike | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
just before 6pm last night and rushed to hospital | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
before undergoing surgery. The parish community will very much | :02:29. | :02:42. | |
keep that family, that young mother, that wife, in their prayers in a | :02:43. | :02:51. | |
genuine railway in the hope that she recovers from this incident and that | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
her husband and children are comforted in their difficult | :02:57. | :02:57. | |
moments. Two boys aged 15 and 17 | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
were arrested last night A local MLA for the area says | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
the woman's family are devastated. We have had a lot of people | :03:02. | :03:14. | |
contacting us wanting their prayers and thoughts to be passed on for the | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
woman and for her wider family, particularly her husband and young | :03:21. | :03:21. | |
children. Community workers say this is not | :03:22. | :03:22. | |
the first major incident involving motorcycles and quad bikes in Colin | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
Glen. Today, a regular user | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
of the park agreed. There are quite a few scramblers | :03:28. | :03:35. | |
around here, staff around the park try their best to keep them out but | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
the perimeter here is enormous, so there is not much they can do. It | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
was only a matter of time before this happened. How much do you use | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
the spark, how important is it for the area? Every day. It's an amazing | :03:52. | :03:59. | |
resource. The road dog walkers, families, it is very popular with | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
young families. The officer leading | :04:02. | :04:02. | |
the investigation says using machines like scramblers | :04:03. | :04:03. | |
is often illegal. If you intend to use them on a road | :04:04. | :04:12. | |
for public face, they need the same things as any other vehicle, a | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
driving licence for that class of vehicle, a valid insurance | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
certificate, a test certificate and number plates and lights and all | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
those things that would apply in any other circumstance. The exception to | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
this is using such a vehicle on private land with the permission of | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
the landowner. This is a live investigation. A woman remains in a | :04:37. | :04:43. | |
critical condition and I would appeal to anybody who saw any | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
offered bags being used in that park around 6pm last night to please come | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
forward with any information. Friends say that this evening | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
the women is fighting for her life. Tonight the police have renewed | :04:53. | :05:03. | |
their appeal for information. They want to speak to anyone who was in | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
the area and saw anyone using a scrambler bike for a quad bike. The | :05:09. | :05:10. | |
investigation continues. There were angry outbursts | :05:11. | :05:12. | |
in court after a man accused of raping a 16-year-old boy | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
was remanded in custody. It followed the assault | :05:15. | :05:16. | |
of the teenager beside a park It was here, on a pathway | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
through waste ground near the Falls Park in West Belfast, | :05:20. | :05:26. | |
that the boy was raped early The details - too graphic | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
to broadcast - were read out 39-year-old Gerard Scannell, | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
from Ballymurphy Road in West Belfast, was today charged | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
with three counts of rape As he was being led from the dock | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
after being remanded in custody, relatives of the boy yelled | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
obscenities at the accused. Earlier a defence barrister said | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
the 39-year-old had consistently denied the allegations when put | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
to him during police interviews. There was no application for bail, | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
but the prosecution said that it will strongly object | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
to bail if an attempt CCTV cameras are to be installed | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
in the City Cemetery in Londonderry Relatives who've lost loved ones say | :06:08. | :06:16. | |
they're appalled at the anti-social Here's our North-West | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
reporter, Keiron Tourish. Pearse Coyle tending to the grave | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
of his late wife Myra. He's one of many people shocked | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
at the recent spate of vandalism and anti-social behaviour taking | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
place in the City Cemetery. It's very hurtful. People and their | :06:35. | :06:52. | |
family who passed away, they are at a loss and for anybody to come and | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
add to that loss, it's a great her to the family. | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
They believe the council move to install CCTV cameras, | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
and enlist a private security firm to carry out patrols, | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
reflects the lack of respect a small minority have for the cemetery. | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
You don't like it but at the same time it has to be done. Some things | :07:11. | :07:20. | |
just have to be done. It's just the times we're living in. What do you | :07:21. | :07:29. | |
do? It's just terrible. I think it's terrible that this cemetery is a | :07:30. | :07:31. | |
sacred place, it should be left. It's not the first time | :07:32. | :07:33. | |
the City Cemetery has been In January a controlled explosion | :07:34. | :07:35. | |
was carried out on a car after two semi-automatic handguns | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
were found inside. That incident provoked | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
revulsion across the city. The Bishop of Derry says he hopes | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
the installation of CCTV will act as a deterrent to those intent | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
on disrupting a sacred place. It's got to be a community response, | :07:49. | :08:02. | |
so the message goes out that this is not what decent people do. We want | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
to look after the graves of our loved ones and allow those who are | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
grieving to go there and not be afraid of what might happen to them | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
for their graves, so it is a sad situation that as a limited we can | :08:17. | :08:22. | |
rise to the occasion and make sure our graves and very a la after | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
Ulster the council said it wanted to reassure the public that all | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
appropriate steps are being taken to combat anti-social behaviour, and it | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
says the security measures are being renewed on an ongoing basis. | :08:38. | :08:39. | |
Still to come before 7pm: We hear from the parents of this little boy, | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
as a drug to treat a rare genetic condition is made available | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
Bank of Ireland is to close eight branches which could see up to 54 | :08:46. | :08:56. | |
But it says there'll be no compulsory jobs losses. | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
It comes as the number of people claiming unemployment related | :09:04. | :09:05. | |
benefits in Northern Ireland has fallen to its lowest | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
Our economics and business editor John Campbell is here. | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
What can be read into the unemployment figures? Unemployment | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
there has been falling for at least three years so it has been a good | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
downward trend, that rate has begun to slow in the last few months but | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
we can look at the figures and see that in June the number of people | :09:32. | :09:39. | |
claiming unemployment benefits was done to 36,700, the first time since | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
Christmas 2008 that the numbers have been allow 37,000, so improving, and | :09:43. | :09:50. | |
the other figure for unemployment stands at 5.9%, so still | :09:51. | :09:57. | |
significantly of the UK rate. While an icon Ireland closing days | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
branches? This is a trend affecting the whole banking industry, people | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
did not go to branches so much because we use our phones or online | :10:09. | :10:15. | |
and banks are looking to cut costs. Banks in Northern Ireland have | :10:16. | :10:23. | |
fallen by 30% since 2010, so Bank of Ireland are making these closures in | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
quite a wide geographical spread, in Castlereagh, Draperstown, Antrim, | :10:30. | :10:36. | |
Castlederg Ards, mascara and Donegal Square South, but perhaps the most | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
interesting closure is in the league, which will be the closure of | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
the last branch in town -- in Belleek. | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
Belleek is busy with business, but soon people here will have to go | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
There used to be three banks in the town. | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
Now one is a pub and another a beauticians. | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
The bank had already cut the number of hours this branch was open, with | :10:59. | :11:06. | |
a counter service only available three days a week. | :11:07. | :11:07. | |
Business owners say they were given assurances when the service | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
was reduced and have accused the Bank of Ireland of breaking | :11:11. | :11:12. | |
We saw them reduce their days for cash a few years ago and we thought | :11:13. | :11:24. | |
that might have reduced any chance of it happening, but that was just | :11:25. | :11:31. | |
the test-bed, in hindsight, to see if there was any need for the branch | :11:32. | :11:32. | |
to be there. When the bank was contacted today, | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
businesses were told that even the future of the hole-in-the-wall | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
machine could not be guaranteed. This branch is believed to have | :11:38. | :11:39. | |
around 5000 customers, who will have to travel | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
to Enniskillen to if they want to do It raises issues from security to | :11:43. | :11:54. | |
getting changed to making lodgement and it wasn't end there. People with | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
personal accounts, elderly people, this means a QR, round-trip to do | :12:01. | :12:07. | |
our banking from now on. That is not usable and that people of Belleek | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
will not sit back and take this, we will fight it to the bitter end. We | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
need a bank here. It is a service we cannot do without. | :12:18. | :12:19. | |
The bank says it's responding to more customers using online | :12:20. | :12:22. | |
and mobile banking, but many in this rural community will miss the more | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
personal way of doing their banking with someone they know. | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
The new Secretary of State has told the House of Commons the continued | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
use of the Common Travel Area between Northern Ireland | :12:32. | :12:33. | |
and the Republic will be a "priority issue ". | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
James Brokenshire was making his first appearance | :12:37. | :12:39. | |
at Northern Ireland Questions following his appointment last week. | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
Watching was our political correspondent Gareth Gordon. | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
Northern Ireland's 19th Secretary of State began by paying tribute | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
to his predecessor, who watched from the back benches. | :12:52. | :12:53. | |
The first question was about the proposed North-South | :12:54. | :12:55. | |
Our understanding is that Sinn Fein is one of the biggest | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
objectors to this and does he agree with me | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
their lack of understanding of simple economics? | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
He was more comfortable when asked about a border poll. | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
I have been quite straightforward in relation to the issue of the border | :13:20. | :13:27. | |
poll. The conditions are set out clearly in relation to the Belfast | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
Agreement and I do not think those conditions have been met. | :13:32. | :13:32. | |
He campaigned to remain in the European Union, | :13:33. | :13:34. | |
I think now is the time to come together, to work together to secure | :13:35. | :13:45. | |
that positive future for Northern Ireland as part of the UK outside | :13:46. | :13:54. | |
the EU. Will he come back to this house in the autumn and tell us why | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
his predecessor and the Northern Ireland Office have been so badly | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
prepared for Brexit? He let that one go, | :14:03. | :14:03. | |
and gave this pledge. The Common Travel Area and the issue | :14:04. | :14:13. | |
of the border is at the forefront of my agenda. I recognise, as the | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
Republic of Ireland recognises, the benefits we get, not just about the | :14:19. | :14:26. | |
movement of people also goods and services, and I did not want to see | :14:27. | :14:27. | |
a return to the borders of the past. But even new Secretaries | :14:28. | :14:29. | |
of State know their place. The biggest cheer of the day was not | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
for him but for the arrival Now, another matter raised | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
during Northern Ireland questions in Parliament today was the idea | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
of a unity flag. An English MP asked if any | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
consideration has been given to adopting the cross of St Patrick | :14:48. | :14:50. | |
to represent all communities They are potent symbols of identity | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
and culture here, used to mark In fact, it's the job | :14:55. | :15:05. | |
of a new commission What consideration has been given | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
to adopting the cross of St Patrick as a unity flag for all communities | :15:12. | :15:20. | |
representing Northern Ireland? The issue of flags | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
in Northern Ireland Any change in the existing | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
arrangements would require Well, this is what the flag | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
of St Patrick, also known It's actually part of the Union | :15:33. | :15:39. | |
flag, but it's already been accepted as an agreed | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
symbol on the PSNI badge. It's a wee bit English looking. What | :15:45. | :16:01. | |
about a shamrock on it? I think it needs the red hand. Do you think if | :16:02. | :16:07. | |
you put a red hand on that it would be more inclusive? The red hand is | :16:08. | :16:14. | |
Ulster in both traditions, nobody could object to a red hand. It's | :16:15. | :16:23. | |
fine, it's OK, it's very dull and... I like my red, white and blue flag. | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
So this suggestion in the Commons didn't get the flag -- the thumbs | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
up. It seems a flag for all is still some way off. | :16:36. | :16:37. | |
Well, it's nearly four weeks since the UK voted to leave the EU. | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
So how much closer are we to knowing how Ireland - north and south - | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
Our Dublin correspondent Shane Harrison has | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
On a sunny day it's hard to imagine what the post Brexit future for the | :16:47. | :16:57. | |
Republic may be. If not gloomy, certainly uncertain. It's estimated | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
that trade between the two states is worth over a vision euro a week. | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
What might happen to that? There can be no answers to that for many other | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
questions until the British begin negotiations and set out their | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
stall, but the director-general of the British Irish Chamber of | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
Commerce, which employs businesses employing over 2 million people, | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
says there are already consequences from the boat. We are inundated with | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
queries from UK firms who say they need to know they can have a base in | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
an EU country which can trade with the EU without parts, and they need | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
to know they are working with a country with the same language and | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
legal system and is committed to being in the EU. People here know it | :17:46. | :17:52. | |
is not just trade that has the Irish government worried. There's also the | :17:53. | :17:58. | |
future of the Common Travel Area that predates both states joining | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
the EU. Last week in Berlin did German Chancellor reminded the | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
Taoiseach that Ireland was only one of 27 countries the EU would be | :18:10. | :18:15. | |
negotiating for. Never mind this week's Hockley border poll, Mr Kenny | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
has been playing up the importance of the land border in the peace | :18:21. | :18:26. | |
process as part of Irish concerns. It's a fragile entity and cannot be | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
taken for granted and a central part of the discussions that will take | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
place irrespective of the other, of the Brexit decision. Northern | :18:38. | :18:43. | |
Ireland is also much on the minds of the enough oil. Despite thinking | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
Enda Kenny was slightly candid in floating the idea of an All-Ireland | :18:48. | :18:54. | |
transit form without consulting the DUP, many still believe there is | :18:55. | :19:00. | |
merit in some form of consultation. We established the Civic Forum which | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
is permitted under the Good Friday Agreement. Let's look at the | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
All-Ireland forum to look at the areas of interest and concern and | :19:10. | :19:15. | |
work together. That may be for the future but nearly four weeks after | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
the result, nobody is any the wiser as to what the post Brexit world | :19:21. | :19:22. | |
will look or feel like. The Health Minister Michelle O'Neill | :19:23. | :19:24. | |
has announced that a drug to treat a particular form of Duchenne | :19:25. | :19:27. | |
muscular dystrophy is to be made available to patients | :19:28. | :19:29. | |
in Northern Ireland. A seven-year-old boy from Limavady | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
is one of those who'll benefit. His parents say they are "over | :19:34. | :19:36. | |
the moon", having campaigned for years for the drug | :19:37. | :19:38. | |
to be administered here. They've been talking | :19:39. | :19:40. | |
to our health correspondent, I'm the superhero, not you! It's | :19:41. | :20:00. | |
been a good day for superheroes, especially for Cal on the casting, | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
who lives with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. His family learnt today | :20:05. | :20:11. | |
he will be able to access a specialist drug on the health | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
service after years of lobbying politicians. It was a very good | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
surprise and hopefully it won't take long to filter through soap Cal can | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
receive the drug. Around 70 people here suffer from the strain of | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
muscular dystrophy, a genetic condition which causes the muscles | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
to stop working. As Callum's present -- parents tell me, taking the drug | :20:39. | :20:44. | |
before the age of ten can prevent a life in a wheelchair. On a bad day | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
he is tired, she can't talk, if he wants to go to the withered he would | :20:50. | :20:56. | |
have to be carried, he takes steroids every day, he takes a | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
tablet to counteract the steroids, he takes heart medication. How the | :21:01. | :21:08. | |
drug will benefit the lives of just seven local boys who were eligible. | :21:09. | :21:15. | |
With Duchenne your muscles form a honeycomb structure that lets you | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
will easily, but that fades away and becomes the slight HLA. This drug | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
provides protein to give strength to your muscles, when boys are playing | :21:28. | :21:34. | |
with their friends. The move could cost the health service around 100 | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
those in homes per patient a year. If these drugs and that people they | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
will be provided to them, so that is something I could quickly turn | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
around. With a so-called wonder drug on its way, hopefully it is a bright | :21:51. | :21:57. | |
future ahead for this wonder boy. Good luck to him. | :21:58. | :21:59. | |
Brendan Rodgers has his first competitive home game in charge | :22:00. | :22:01. | |
of Celtic this evening and he's under a little bit of pressure. | :22:02. | :22:04. | |
The Scottish champions were embarrassed in Gibraltar last | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
week losing 1-0 to part-timers Lincoln Red Imps in | :22:09. | :22:10. | |
Despite coming in for a barrage of criticism, Rodgers remains | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
confident that Celtic will turn things around | :22:16. | :22:18. | |
I don't take any notice of it, to be young. I didn't see so much of it, | :22:19. | :22:34. | |
my only focus is for the players. If you lose a game like that against a | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
team that maybe you were expected to win, it's always a disaster, not for | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
me, of course, we were disappointed that the most important thing is to | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
get through. If we had one 1-0 last week it would still have been a | :22:54. | :22:55. | |
disaster. As we continue our countdown | :22:56. | :22:57. | |
to the Rio Olympic Games, Four local fighters have been | :22:58. | :22:59. | |
selected for Brazil. Paddy Barnes and Michael Conlan | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
are familiar faces, both having won bronze medals | :23:03. | :23:04. | |
in London four years ago, but this is a maiden Games | :23:05. | :23:06. | |
for Ballymena man Stephen Donnelly Here's Nigel Ringland with BBC | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
Newsline's latest instalment He is known as the wee rooster, | :23:10. | :23:26. | |
Brendan Irvine, the Belfast flyweight who earned his place in | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
Rio via the European qualifying composition. It's not long before he | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
makes his Olympic debut in a sport where Ireland expects metals. It's | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
all getting real, it's close to the stage we fly out and we have dad | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
there and the training we have put in has been phenomenal. Training | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
alongside Paddy and the rest of the team has been hard, we all pull | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
ourselves together and help ourselves through. Stephen | :23:56. | :24:06. | |
Donnelly's career was almost put off after he was sent home in disgrace. | :24:07. | :24:13. | |
I was young and stupid, as you get older you get wiser, I have learned | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
from my mistakes and I use it as my motivation when training to go | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
further and further. Taking that time out of boxing, it's a hard game | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
and I was out of the game for two years, getting back to full fitness | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
to nearly a year but I work hard for a year to get up to that level and | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
then one Irish and Ulster seniors and went from strength to strength. | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
This Ireland boxing squad includes Michael Conlan and Paddy Barnes, men | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
who have won medals and inspired rookies around them. It brings | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
everything to the squad, the laughter, the training, I couldn't | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
picture being without them because they bring you on in training and | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
you were always learning of them, so it's great to have them around. For | :25:06. | :25:11. | |
boxers from Northern Ireland will go to Rio and all of them have a shot | :25:12. | :25:13. | |
at gold. The boxers have arrived in Rio today | :25:14. | :25:14. | |
and we'll hear from Paddy Barnes That's the sport tonight. Time for | :25:15. | :25:28. | |
the weather. What is in store? All changed today, temperatures quite a | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
bit down on yesterday especially towards the West where we saw highs | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
10 degrees lower. A weather front moved in last night to bring showery | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
rain, if you thunder storm 's and this lightning strike was captured | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
at the North Coast last night. Over the piracy, some thundery clouds. | :25:51. | :25:54. | |
The mechanism that brought those clouds was the cold front, it moved | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
away across Scotland today, severe thunderstorms there, behind at a | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
disappointing hang back of cloud and showery bits and pieces but we have | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
breaks towards the West, so we will see a little brightness in the | :26:12. | :26:13. | |
evening in places and showers fizzling away. Tonight it stays | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
mainly dry with clear spells, not as warm and humid as last they, much | :26:20. | :26:25. | |
more comfortable for sleeping, temperatures around 12 or 13 | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
degrees. Tomorrow the weather is heading back to normal, another | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
weather front moving in from the south and that will bring | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
increasingly unsettled conditions but not a bad start to the day, a | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
fair amount of dry weather and a hint of brightness towards the east | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
and North Coast. It may stay dry there until early afternoon but then | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
the clouds are thickening up, spells of rain moving into the West and | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
South and moving north through the afternoon and evening and we are | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
likely to get heavy bursts of rain. It could be an thousand for the | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
evening rush hour. Temperatures around 18 or 20 degrees. Those | :27:08. | :27:13. | |
showers linger into tomorrow evening, then fade away to leave a | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
dry night. Temperatures not too bad on Friday isn't looking like a bad | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
day, it looks as though apart from the odd shower we will have a lot of | :27:24. | :27:29. | |
pride weather, some sunny spells. Variable cloud in the weekend, some | :27:30. | :27:33. | |
showers but hopefully some drier spells as well. | :27:34. | :27:34. | |
