is all for now. I will be back with the late news here on

:00:00.:00:15.

Good evening. There are weather warnings still in place for strong

:00:16.:00:24.

winds and rain as the tail end of a hurricane continues to hit parts of

:00:25.:00:31.

western Wales. There were flooding incidents in parts of the region

:00:32.:00:42.

earlier. Some roads were impassable for drivers. One flood warning is

:00:43.:00:51.

still in place and for flood alerts are active. We will have a full

:00:52.:00:56.

weather forecast in a few moments. We have learned that the Welsh and

:00:57.:01:04.

UK Government spent a combined total of ?300,000 on the supreme court

:01:05.:01:10.

cases about Assembly powers. It has been revealed under the Freedom of

:01:11.:01:15.

Information Act. A spokesperson said costs were being kept as low as

:01:16.:01:21.

possible while the Welsh Government said it showed the need for reform.

:01:22.:01:36.

Samples of honey... One sample in particular could call the key. It

:01:37.:01:42.

has been known for centuries that the honey breeze produce can have

:01:43.:01:47.

healing properties. My new car honey from New Zealand is already used to

:01:48.:01:56.

treat winds. There is hope that the Welsh honey can hold the key to

:01:57.:02:02.

beating certain kinds of diseases. It has been used against bacteria

:02:03.:02:13.

like MRSA. If the samples respond positively the pollen is analysed so

:02:14.:02:19.

that sign tests can trace it back to the plant it came from. Scientists

:02:20.:02:27.

have had some success. From the samples we find about ten which have

:02:28.:02:33.

the activity we are looking for. One honey sample from North Wales is the

:02:34.:02:39.

most active and compatible to the new car honey. In the meantime tests

:02:40.:02:47.

are continuing on other samples provided by Welsh beekeepers. I love

:02:48.:02:54.

the idea that there is a plant somewhere on the mountainside of

:02:55.:02:59.

North Wales which has the next cure. The only way we will find that

:03:00.:03:05.

is if people send us their honey. The race is on to find fresh

:03:06.:03:12.

solutions. The scientists may well be on the right track. Soldiers from

:03:13.:03:17.

a Pembrokeshire village who lost their lives in both world wars have

:03:18.:03:22.

been honoured on a memorial for the first time. The tablet has the names

:03:23.:03:29.

of 25 soldiers engraved on it. Some sports news now. It has been said it

:03:30.:03:47.

is crazy that Cardiff City got less than was paid last August. Meanwhile

:03:48.:03:56.

this man has told Swansea fans he is sad to leave a club that has been

:03:57.:04:03.

like a family to him. In golf, Amy Donaldson can cement his place in

:04:04.:04:08.

Europe's final Ryder Cup team this evening. He is five shots behind the

:04:09.:04:15.

leader. He is in the qualifying spot after gaining some valuable ranking

:04:16.:04:23.

points. Now the weather forecast. Hello. We have had some severe

:04:24.:04:27.

weather conditions across Wales today and we are not quite out of

:04:28.:04:33.

the woods yet. The delay and of the hurricane is making its way north.

:04:34.:04:40.

-- tail end of the hurricane. It will be very windy tonight. Tomorrow

:04:41.:04:46.

will be breezy with heavy scattered showers. Tonight we have some

:04:47.:04:51.

weather warnings in force. The showers will come and go especially

:04:52.:04:58.

across parts of the South. Drier further north but we cannot rule out

:04:59.:05:02.

a shower anywhere today. Top temperatures overnight around 18

:05:03.:05:08.

Celsius. Some bright or sunny intervals throughout the day

:05:09.:05:12.

tomorrow but some heavy showers moving in from the west. Tomorrow

:05:13.:05:17.

temperatures will peak at 19 Celsius. Tomorrow the showers

:05:18.:05:25.

continued to push across towards the east of the country. Tonight as they

:05:26.:05:29.

will pressure moves north there will be cooler year fishing in and that

:05:30.:05:36.

will continue over the next few days. The isobars are quite close

:05:37.:05:42.

together on the pressure chart. Fairly unsettled over the next few

:05:43.:05:48.

days but towards the end of the meet the Reg of high pressure will build

:05:49.:05:51.

bringing more settled conditions. That is all for now. Thank you for

:05:52.:05:56.

your company. Good evening. Hello there. With reports of

:05:57.:06:11.

flooding and wind damage in some parts of the UK, hurricane Bertha

:06:12.:06:14.

has certainly left her mark, in one form or another. The low that sperm

:06:15.:06:20.

from her is now pushing its way on to the North Sea and through the

:06:21.:06:23.

night will keep winds strong and gusty across the country. Some

:06:24.:06:25.

lively showers around
