risen, over 200 dead and 120 are still trapped. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Tonight, the fallout from a damning report into elderly patient care | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
Those responsible for carrying out spot checks say | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
I think we all have to take responsibility for looking back and | :00:17. | :00:27. | |
thinking about how we may possibly have been able to identify and make | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
a difference earlier in the process. This car crashed into children and | :00:30. | :00:40. | |
a lollipop lady outside a school. A court hears | :00:41. | :00:46. | |
the driver's flip-flops may have got Colin Jackson - the latest famous | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
face to have invested in a company Warren's family say they should be | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
exempt from the so-called bedroom tax due to his disability - they | :00:54. | :01:00. | |
take their battle to the high court. It affects the lives of not only | :01:01. | :01:13. | |
ourselves that there is a lot of other people around the country who | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
have disabled children and people don't realise looking after a | :01:17. | :01:17. | |
disabled child is very hard work. And celebrations | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
in Pembroke Dock to mark 200 years A day on from the publication | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
of a damning report into elderly care failings | :01:24. | :01:35. | |
at the Princess of Wales and Neath Port Talbot hospitals, questions | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
are being asked about the Welsh Government's response to it and the | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
system of inspecting the Welsh NHS. Plaid Cymru claim Wales-wide | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
spot-checks announced yesterday are simply a rehash of | :01:48. | :01:49. | |
a plan introduced three years ago. And the Older People's Commissioner | :01:50. | :01:57. | |
has called into question the effectiveness of Health Inspectorate | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
Wales after it raised no serious concerns during an inspection of the | :02:01. | :02:02. | |
Princess of Wales Hospital in 2012. Here's our Health Correspondent, | :02:03. | :02:10. | |
Owain Clarke. Yesterday we joined the families who | :02:11. | :02:20. | |
claimed their loved ones had been victim of a health system that | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
didn't care enough. It talks about a further independent | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
investigation in a year's time and yet it shows problems over several | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
years. It is not going to address the real concerns. It seems to | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
pinpoint elderly care alone but if somebody has lost a loved one that | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
should never have died that day, they should be included in this | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
report. The Welsh government and health | :02:50. | :02:51. | |
board issued an unreserved apology to those effective and the | :02:52. | :02:58. | |
hospitals. The health minister went further. | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
Each hospital in Wales will be visited by a small group of | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
independent experts, overseen from outside Wales by Sir Ian Carruthers | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
and Professor Andrews. They will carry out spot checks. | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
There are claims tonight the announcement was similar to the | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
Welsh government's response to another damning assessment three | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
years ago. In 2011, the then older people 's Commissioner claimed some | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
elderly patients had been created -- degraded. | :03:34. | :03:40. | |
They introduced spot checks. A spot check system was announced in 2011 | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
to deal with concerns around care of the elderly in hospital. The 12 | :03:44. | :03:52. | |
checks occurred by Health Inspectorate Wales following that. | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
Seven had concerning results and no spot checks were undertaken in 2013 | :03:57. | :04:04. | |
at all so yesterday we had a rehashed, re-announced spot check | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
policy that really, if it had been properly in place since 2011 as was | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
announced at the time, some of the issues that we have been hearing of | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
in this report may not have ever happened in hospitals in Wales. | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
The difference this time according to the Welsh government is the new | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
spot checks will be targeted at four specific areas- and this time they | :04:28. | :04:35. | |
won't be led by Health Inspectorate Wales but instead a team hand-picked | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
by the Welsh government. Health Inspectorate Wales will restart its | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
own spot checks six months later. The question is has the inspector | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
had been sidelined? It was certainly criticised in the review yesterday | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
which claims concerns must be raised about the effectiveness of Health | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
Inspectorate Wales, who seem to have last visited two years ago and not | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
seen or reported on what would have been at the time highly visible | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
issues of poor practice. At a time when standards of care are under the | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
spotlight like never before, the question is is the body responsible | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
for upholding itself up to the job? Earlier I spoke to Kate Chamberlain, | :05:17. | :05:26. | |
the chief executive of Health Inspectorate Wales, and I | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
asked her if the organisation should I think at any point where failures | :05:30. | :05:39. | |
of the magnitude that have been highlighted in this report have been | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
missed, we all have to take responsibility for looking back and | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
thinking about how we may have been able to identify and make a | :05:48. | :05:57. | |
difference earlier. Let's talk about identifying problems. The report | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
said that at the time of the 2012 inspection, there would have been | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
highly visible issues of poor practice. How were they missed? | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
Looking back at the report that we did in 2012 on the issues found at | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
the Princess of Wales Hospital, it is clear the report flags up some of | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
the issues but not all that were highlighted by the report. There | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
were issues about retrospective depletion of documentation and there | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
are issues about some of the ward environment. But the overall tone of | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
your report was generally positive, wasn't it? The report said that care | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
was being provided in a sensitive manner. | :06:44. | :06:50. | |
The report highlights the interactions with patients that were | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
observed that it does highlight failings in the way some of those | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
were being delivered. The response we had from the health board | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
indicate the issues were being addressed. During the past year, we | :07:05. | :07:13. | |
have certainly been looking again at the approach we take to our dignity | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
and essential care inspections. New inspections took place in February | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
and March this year, based on the tools. The first report has now been | :07:24. | :07:32. | |
issues. We have been drawing up issues relating to leadership and | :07:33. | :07:42. | |
culture. New spot checks are going to be | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
carried out by a ministerial team. Is your organisation being | :07:47. | :07:48. | |
sidelined? No. Our organisation is not being | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
sidelined. We are talking to the Welsh government about how the | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
approach taken through the spot checks can be aligned with our | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
inspections and the programme of our inspections we conduct through the | :08:05. | :08:12. | |
remainder of the year will be focused through those spot checks. | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
It is important to say that they will be focusing specifically on the | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
four issues in the Andrews report and three of those are already | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
covered in the inspections we undertake. | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
In the light of the criticism in this report, which was between | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
December 2013 and April 2014, very recent. What can you say to people | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
who are in hospital or going into hospital shortly to reassure them | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
that it is after all your job to protect them? | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
I think I would say to those patients who are about to go into | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
hospital that there is a whole system in place to protect them. It | :08:52. | :09:02. | |
is important to encourage staff to do so as well for us. We have all | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
got a part to play, whether it is ourselves in the regime, whether it | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
is the community councils in helping to support and advise patients and | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
also to support them when they don't feel they are getting their services | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
and importantly, the health boards have an important part to play in | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
listening to the concerns that are raised and acting on them. | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
A court has heard how the accident in which a car crashed | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
outside a school, hitting five children and a lollipop lady, | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
may have happened after the drivers flip flops got under the pedals. | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
62-year-old Robert Bell denies driving without due care | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
and attention and says he cannot remember | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
the crash which happened last year at Rhoose in the Vale of Glamorgan. | :09:47. | :09:55. | |
It was just before 9am as children were pouring into Rhoose Primary | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
School when the accident happened. Five children and three women were | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
injured. One of them was the lollipop lady, Karen Williams. She | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
received an award for her actions trying to protect the children. | :10:12. | :10:13. | |
62-year-old Robert Bell denies driving without due care and | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
attention and today he told a court how he could recall nothing of the | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
accident. Fighting back the tears, he said the first thing he | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
remembered was hanging upside down in the car. When he got out and saw | :10:28. | :10:33. | |
the scene, he said he thought he'd killed three people. Some witnesses | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
that they said he had been driving his car along the road outside the | :10:37. | :10:43. | |
school when it appeared to Spira -- speed up, veer across the road and | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
hit collards before flipping over. Karen Williams said she saw Mr Bell | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
gripping the wheel with his eyes open as the car came towards her. | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
Another witness said he was coughing and his eyes were closed. His lawyer | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
told the court he was on medication which caused coughing. The | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
prosecution lawyer put it to him that the flip-flops he had been | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
wearing had ended up under the pedals and that could have caused | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
the accident. Vista Bell said he thought they'd come off as he tried | :11:16. | :11:22. | |
to free himself. -- Mr Bell. Two we court will hear expert evidence from | :11:23. | :11:28. | |
two doctors. -- tomorrow the court will hear. | :11:29. | :11:29. | |
The latest official figures show the number of people out of work | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
in Wales fell by 5,000 in the three months to March. | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
The unemployment rate here has stabilised remaining at 6.8% - | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
which is now the same as in the UK as a whole. | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
Wales is one of only two areas where the number of people in or looking | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
for work has fallen compared with the same period last year. | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
Seven pupils from Pembroke Comprehensive School needed | :11:49. | :11:50. | |
hospital treatment this afternoon after experimenting with what's | :11:51. | :11:52. | |
Police and the air ambulance were called after a group | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
None are thought to be in a life threatening condition. | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
It's emerged the Olympic hurdler, Colin Jackson, is involved in | :12:02. | :12:03. | |
running a company that's invested millions of pounds in the same tax | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
Revenue and Customs is expected to pursue | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
those involved to get the money that should have been paid in taxation. | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
Our business correspondent, Brian Meechan, is here. | :12:15. | :12:16. | |
This is about aggressive tax avoidance. That is not illegal but | :12:17. | :12:28. | |
it is against the spirit of the law, if not the letter of the law. Colin | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
Jackson has been involved in a company which reported losses of | :12:34. | :12:40. | |
?9.4 million as part of this game. There are a number of solicitors | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
that are involved, some dentists, some medics also involved with this | :12:44. | :12:50. | |
company. What the tax tribunal judge has said is that there were no real | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
loss is attached to this scheme and basically it was just many circling | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
around and it was there to offset some of the many coming in and to | :13:01. | :13:06. | |
reduce taxation. We have spoken to Mr Jackson's agent but they say | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
there is no statement coming today. What will happen next? All the | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
people involved in this scheme will be receiving quite hefty tax bills. | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
Think of this as ?10 million, quite a large tax bill to have to pick up | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
from that. People are quite annoyed about this because they are paying | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
taxes and people are finding it hard. When they see people not | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
paying what they feel they should be playing, it is a bad reaction. | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
Council tax in Wales is unfair because it charges proportionately | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
more for cheaper houses than expensive ones - that's according to | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
the economist Gerry Holtham, who chaired the Commission | :13:47. | :13:48. | |
In a paper for the Institute for Welsh Affairs he suggests that | :13:49. | :13:53. | |
council tax for people in the lowest band should be halved | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
while bills for the highest band would almost double. | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
Our Economics Correspondent Sarah Dickins looks at what it would mean | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
Dale Aston lives in Church Village near Pontypridd. | :14:03. | :14:04. | |
He pays just more than ?1,100 a year in council tax. | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
Under the proposals his bill would fall and he could | :14:08. | :14:09. | |
Nigel Roberts lives on the outskirts of Cardiff. | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
His bills would rise and in fact almost double. | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
Dale Aston, a retired colliery electrician, has lived here | :14:23. | :14:29. | |
The poor people always pay more than their fair share of tax so it does | :14:30. | :14:45. | |
not surprise me. He argues it is right that bills for large houses | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
should be larger. The value of the house and income is greater than | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
mine. I'm an OAP and I am on a small pension, hailing tax. -- paying tax. | :14:56. | :15:01. | |
Nigel Roberts owns a group of companies based in Cardiff | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
This perpetuates a culture of envy. I was born in the buffer in Cardiff. | :15:05. | :15:16. | |
I have worked hard for it. Gerry Holtham took his proposals for | :15:17. | :15:18. | |
changer to the home of politicians. They'll is paying nearly 2% of the | :15:19. | :15:29. | |
value of his body every year in council tax. Nigel is probably | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
paying half a percent so it is not a proportional tax. But Nigel is | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
paying more in numbers of pounds for his large house. He is. People are | :15:40. | :15:46. | |
always saying you should pay proportionately more if your value | :15:47. | :15:47. | |
is higher. But for people living alone in a | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
large house but a small income Gerry Hotham suggests payments could be | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
delayed until the house was sold. And for the well-off who would pay | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
much more, he has an incentive. If Wales gets powers to alter income | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
tax, he'd give high earners So they see Wales | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
as a good place to do business. Still to come - some good news | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
on the weather front. High pressure is working it's magic, | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
the sun is shining and the next few days will bring the | :16:14. | :16:15. | |
warmest weather of the year so far. The | :16:16. | :16:35. | |
in Wales says a "whole generation of young people" | :16:36. | :16:36. | |
won't be able to access further education - because of cuts to | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
public transport spending. The majority of learners in further | :16:43. | :16:45. | |
education in Wales rely on some form of public transport or dedicated bus | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
to travel to and from college. Our education Correspondent, | :16:49. | :16:51. | |
Arwyn Jones, has more. Stefan Thomas is studying for a BTEC | :16:52. | :16:58. | |
in personal fitness development. The only problem is the course is in | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
Llanelli, 30 miles away. It takes about an hour and a half every | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
morning and every night. I leave the house at 6:45am and I would be that | :17:09. | :17:15. | |
until 5:30pm. When you do that in a day, it takes a lot out of you. He | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
is one of the luckier ones because the college pays for his transport | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
costs and according to research today by the National Union of | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
Students, 69% of similar students who receive that support rely on it | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
to get to college and back and the same research shows nearly a third | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
of further education students in Wales don't receive any financial | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
support to cover their costs. Last year the worst government reduced | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
bus service was fought by a quarter. It is looking at different ways of | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
running and financing route but some bus operators have announced that | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
they might have to cut routes and the fear is it could have a | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
devastating effect on students. We are going to have a generation who | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
can't get to college and for many of these students, further education is | :18:04. | :18:06. | |
their second chance. We talk about college education as a second | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
opportunity for vulnerable learners and if these students can't afford | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
to get to college, we are removing that opportunity. At the annual | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
conference, the concern is that since each council has its own | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
policy on students transport, students from different areas get | :18:26. | :18:27. | |
different support in the same college. I wouldn't say it's a | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
postcode lottery but there are different practices so levels of | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
subsidy might be different. There are issues around 19 plus students | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
cost in some places they are not supported by local authorities and | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
others they are. It needs to be consistent. Further education | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
colleges are seen as a route to employment or university but the | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
concern is a lack of groups to get to college might undermine that. | :18:56. | :18:57. | |
Councillors have voted in favour of closing an arts centre and museum | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
The Muni Arts Centre, in Pontypridd and the | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
Cynon Valley Museum in Aberdare will both close as part of Rhondda Cynon | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
Taf council's plans to cut ?70 million over the next four years. | :19:08. | :19:13. | |
The family of a severely disabled teenager | :19:14. | :19:15. | |
from Pembrokeshire have been to the High Court today to challenge | :19:16. | :19:17. | |
Paul and Susan Rutherford say the so-called | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
"bedroom tax" discriminates unlawfully against severely disabled | :19:22. | :19:23. | |
children, such as their grandson Warren, who need overnight care. | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
Warren is 14 years old. A rare disorder means he cannot talk or | :19:27. | :19:44. | |
walk and needs 24-hour care. He lives with his grandparents in a | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
three-bedroom bungalow. This is the spare room. It is not really a spare | :19:50. | :19:56. | |
room. We need this for Warren's essentials. But under rules | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
announced last year it is a spare room, even if Warren's carers | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
sometimes stay in it. Disabled adults are exempt from what critics | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
call the bedroom tax but it has cost Sue and her husband Paul ?14 a week | :20:11. | :20:16. | |
in benefits. Paul has his own health problems and says it is unfair, even | :20:17. | :20:19. | |
though the council makes up the difference. I believe we have an | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
extremely good case. We've got an awful lot of support from other | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
housing associations and our own Pembrokeshire Housing people. All | :20:29. | :20:35. | |
over the UK. Today the Rutherfords took their case to the High Court to | :20:36. | :20:38. | |
try to get a judge to overturn the rules. The rules allow an extra room | :20:39. | :20:46. | |
for an adult who is disabled and needs an overnight carer but not a | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
child who needs overnight care. We say that defies common sense and is | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
unjustified. The UK government says the removal of the subsidy is a fair | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
and necessary reform. The Department for Work and Pensions says it has | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
made many available for councils like Pembrokeshire to help families | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
like the Rutherfords but that money is paid at the council's discretion | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
and will be reviewed every year. The judge says he will give his | :21:16. | :21:17. | |
judgement within weeks. Cricket, | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
and Glamorgan have been beaten They went down to Hampshire | :21:21. | :21:21. | |
on the final day of their Glamorgan were bowled out for 187 | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
in their second innings, setting the home side | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
a slender target, which they reached The streets of Pembroke Dock were | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
taken over this afternoon for a parade to mark 200 years | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
since the town was founded. And, in honour of their proud Naval | :21:40. | :21:46. | |
history - Pembrokeshire's adopted ship - HMS Pembroke - | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
called in to pay a visit and inspire Led by the band of the | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
Royal Marines, 900 schoolchildren Dressed | :21:54. | :22:01. | |
in costumes reflecting the different I am a coal miner today. I am using | :22:02. | :22:18. | |
my uncle's old mining lamb. It is amazing the town has got so much | :22:19. | :22:19. | |
history. Pembroke Dock is the only town | :22:20. | :22:21. | |
in the UK to have been home to all three armed forces - but above all | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
its Navy links run the deepest. The submarine anchors off Pembroke | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
docks. At one time there was a royal | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
dockyard - 260 ships including The town was wealthier then - | :22:36. | :22:38. | |
today's guardians want to inspire these youngsters to dream big once | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
again. This is what we've done to remember | :22:44. | :22:53. | |
our heritage and remember what was done here 200 years ago. Hopefully | :22:54. | :22:59. | |
they will be carrying on the future for us. | :23:00. | :23:00. | |
To mark the celebrations HMS Pembroke has come to visit. | :23:01. | :23:03. | |
Her mission is to patrol using sonar to detect mines | :23:04. | :23:05. | |
Around the UK there are still many left over from the Second World War. | :23:06. | :23:14. | |
As a former member of the bomb disposal team race in Portsmouth, we | :23:15. | :23:21. | |
were called out on tasks five or six times a week, varying from large sea | :23:22. | :23:34. | |
mines and torpedoes. One of the types of bombs they are looking for | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
is set off by metallic contact so they have as little metal on board | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
as possible. Most of what you see is made from fibreglass. | :23:42. | :23:44. | |
Overseas the threat is less historic - the 40 crew here also work out | :23:45. | :23:47. | |
They've had a royal visit - now they can add a royal military | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
band to their list of presents for this their 200th birthday. | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
It looked glorious at Pembroke Dock today. We are in for a lovely few | :23:58. | :24:04. | |
days, aren't we? A few clouds in the sky this evening | :24:05. | :24:18. | |
but lovely sunshine with top temperature of 66 Fahrenheit. Over | :24:19. | :24:22. | |
the next few days we have plenty more settled weather, warming up | :24:23. | :24:29. | |
with sunny spells. Some cloud. The odd shower in places but no more | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
than that. Staying dry this evening and tonight with most of the cloud | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
in the North. Clearer in the south and turning cool. Lowest in pictures | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
around five or six Celsius. Mist and fog patches forming. The 11 Celsius | :24:43. | :24:49. | |
on the north coast. Tomorrow's chart shows high pressure across the UK | :24:50. | :24:52. | |
but high pressure doesn't always mean a blue sky. Tomorrow is a misty | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
start in places with hill fog in Snowdonia. Brighter in the South. | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
During the day more places will brighten up with a few sunny spells. | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
The best of the sunshine on the south coast. More cloud inland but | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
generally dry and warm with temperatures around 20 Celsius with | :25:12. | :25:18. | |
light winds. Tomorrow night the dry weather continues. If you clear | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
spells and mist and fog patches, perhaps some sea fog around Cardigan | :25:24. | :25:28. | |
Bay. On Friday mist and fog patches will lift, leaving a mixture of | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
cloud and sunny spells. I wouldn't rule out a shower in part of Powys. | :25:33. | :25:37. | |
A risk of see fog on some Irish Sea coasts. 22 Celsius in Flintshire | :25:38. | :25:45. | |
would make it the warmest day of the year so far. Saturday the best day | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
of the weekend. Dry and warm. Perhaps a shower in the south-east. | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
Sunday may start dry and bright but there is some rain on the way so | :25:56. | :25:59. | |
enjoy the fine and warm weather over the next few days while it lasts. | :26:00. | :26:02. | |
