:03:31. > :03:33.It's a council that's been given a stark warning.

:03:34. > :03:40.Cardiff is not making enough progress and that's impacting

:04:56. > :05:02.serious about tackling those issues. We already are putting in place

:05:03. > :05:09.measures to make sure that the council is improving. Shortly after

:05:57. > :06:00.he would look after you all the time. Whenever you saw him, he was

:06:01. > :06:07.always smiling. He always had friends around him. We will miss his

:06:08. > :06:10.colourful personality and we will miss his great sense of humour. We

:07:50. > :08:22.has been training with the Bluebirds If we take a look at the map, light

:08:23. > :08:31.winds and largely clear skies overnight. Temperatures falling to

:08:32. > :08:35.between six and 11 Celsius. The front which brought today's drizzle

:08:36. > :08:42.clears eastwards tomorrow with original high-pressure building,

:08:43. > :08:47.bringing more settled weather. Once early morning mist clears, it should

:08:48. > :08:53.be a dry morning with sunny spells. That front in the East just giving

:08:54. > :09:00.the odd spot of drizzle. Then south easterly wind will bring the best of

:09:23. > :09:26.Wednesday is largely fine. The order chance of a shower, but feeling worn

:09:27. > :09:32.in the sunshine, temperatures in the 20s. That high-pressure should stay

:09:33. > :09:37.in place for the week. Some uncertainty for the end of the

:09:38. > :09:40.week. These low pressure systems will try to push in, but

:09:41. > :09:47.high-pressure could hold out and keep them at bay as we head into the

:09:48. > :09:57.weekend. Certainly, a dry and fine start to September.

:09:58. > :09:59.Thank you. We will be back at breakfast with updates from 625.

:10:00. > :10:02.Good night.
