Good evening. Wales has been the BBC News channel. We | :00:00. | :00:18. | |
Good evening. Wales has been battered by gale force winds. Around | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
26,000 homes are still cut off tonight in South, mid and West | :00:24. | :00:29. | |
Wales. Once again, coastlines around Wales, hit by huge waves. I wouldn't | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
have in bettering this area all afternoon. It has been so strong | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
here, people have been advised to keep a safe distance from the | :00:41. | :00:46. | |
seafront. Gusts of wind reached up to 80 mph. But that didn't stop | :00:47. | :00:52. | |
people coming to take in the views. Rougher than I thought it would be. | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
Even when you're standing in it, the force of it is quite powerful. It's | :00:56. | :01:02. | |
so unprecedented to get this top of whether for this long. Although you | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
see it on television, until you experience it safely, you don't | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
really appreciate how devastating it can be. Similar scenes in | :01:12. | :01:20. | |
Aberystwyth. Disruption, too, on our roads, and overturned lorry has | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
meant the M4 on both erections has been closed between junctions 41 and | :01:25. | :01:31. | |
42. The wind also caused around 15,000 homes in mid Wales to be | :01:32. | :01:40. | |
without power. Gales are expected to continue tonight, but things should | :01:41. | :01:50. | |
improve tomorrow. The future of three leisure sites in | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
Denbighshire remains in doubt this evening. Clwyd Leisure says it's | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
closing the Rhyl Sun Centre, the Nova Centre and the Indoor Bowls | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
Centre in Prestatyn, due to a lack of funding from Denbighshire | :02:01. | :02:02. | |
Council. More than 100 workers could lose their jobs. The council will | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
decide in the next few weeks whether they can be reopened. Wales have | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
suffered a huge setback in their quest to win three consecutive Six | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
Nations titles. They were comprehensively beaten by Ireland in | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
Dublin by 26-3. Warren Gatland says it's one of the worst performances | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
since he's been coach. Here's our sports reporter Ashleigh Crowter. | :02:21. | :02:31. | |
Wales arrived in Dublin with reasons to be confident. They hadn't lost an | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
away match in the 6-nation since 2011. But they were second best | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
since the start. Their line-out and scrum looked shaky. I'm forced | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
errors and needless penalties killed their momentum. Jonathan Sexton took | :02:43. | :02:51. | |
advantage with the boot, in a Masters class -- masterclass. He | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
pinned Wales into the corner and from the resulting line-out, Chris | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
Henry was driven over for a 13-0 half-time lead. Leigh Halfpenny got | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
Wales on the scoreboard with a penalty but his fifth cap was not | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
one to remember as Wales were hassled into more mistakes -- 50th | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
cap. With two minutes to go, Ireland completed the demolition as | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
replacement Paddy Jackson crossed to win the match 26-3. Probably one of | :03:18. | :03:24. | |
the worst performances since I have been involved. There are no excuses, | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
Ireland thoroughly outplayed us, they deserved to win, our | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
performance just wasn't good enough. This was not a performance of a side | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
on course for the title but as last year proved, one defeat doesn't | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
necessarily mean championship has gone. Swansea City are closing in on | :03:42. | :03:49. | |
victory against Cardiff City. With a quarter of an hour left, they are | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
leading 2-0. Routledge opened the scoring in the second half. The | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
Bluebirds came close to equalising moments later. Bellamy hit the bar, | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
but in the last few seconds, Nathan Dyer has scored a second full swing | :04:05. | :04:11. | |
too. -- for Swansea. Time for the weather. | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
We have seen some very unpleasant weather conditions across Wales and | :04:15. | :04:22. | |
I'm afraid the story stays the same tonight. Gale force winds and very | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
heavy rain. We have this amber warning the strong winds across the | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
south coast, just to reconditioned wherever you are. The West Coast and | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
Northwest are seeing strong winds as well. More in the way of rain | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
pushing in from the west tomorrow morning. A little drier in North | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
Wales, some of the showers are turning wintry on higher ground. | :04:50. | :04:57. | |
Monday will be a little drier but still windy. The next area of | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
low-pressure introduces further, very heavy rain and strong winds on | :05:02. | :05:02. | |
Tuesday. Good evening. Unfortunately I don't | :05:03. | :05:17. | |
have much good news in this forecast. There may be a brief | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
respite later tomorrow with the wind and the rain but it will not be long | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
enough and we have today's storm withers, pounding many coastlines in | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
the south and west, hence the Amber wind warning from the Met Office. It | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
is a windy day across the board and it is not just the wind | :05:35. | :05:36. |
