on the BBC News Channel. I'll be back with the late news at 10pm. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
And now the news for the East Midlands, I'm Maurice Flynn. A | :00:09. | :00:18. | |
second earthquake has shaken parts of Rutland and Leicestershire today | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
` just 24 hours after the l`st one. The latest quake struck the Oakham | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
area at around ten to eight this morning. It had a magnitude of .5 ` | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
which experts say is three times more powerful than the first. Paul | :00:32. | :00:41. | |
Bradshaw reports. The countryside around Oakham does not look like an | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
earthquake zone but now, after two tremors emanating from the `rea have | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
shaken scores of houses across Leicestershire, that is what it | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
feels like. The earthquake was felt 40 kilometres away from the | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
epicentre in the field behind me. Some local residents say thdy were | :01:01. | :01:09. | |
woken by the earthquake. Thd roof was shaking, there were little bits | :01:10. | :01:17. | |
falling down into the attic, and it was totally frightening. It felt | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
like an underground explosion. There was one hell of a rumble, it was | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
bigger than yesterday. It fdlt like a train right next to me. I put my | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
hand on the washing line to steady myself. Experts say that thd double | :01:31. | :01:39. | |
event is not that rare. It hs not that unusual or unprecedentdd to see | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
a series of earthquakes where there is no distinct main shock. @fter two | :01:43. | :01:51. | |
days of the largest seismic activity in the area since 2001, people are | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
looking forward to a much qtieter Easter. Thanks for all your contact | :01:57. | :02:09. | |
about this. Jason Blakey em`iled us to say he felt it ` followed by a | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
rattle and vibration which seemed to come from under the house and right | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
through it! He was having breakfast at the time ad called it a | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
'hair`raising experience' . Jay Jenner contacted us on our Facebook | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
page to say: Two mornings in a row my alarm clock wasn't needed, it | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
seems Oakham is becoming a hot zone for the earth moving. And on Twitter | :02:32. | :02:41. | |
Rhian Ivory got in touch to say she thought it was far bigger longer | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
than yesterday's quake. A bht of a shock to get another one around the | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
same time of day. There's bden no Good Friday good will betwedn | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
Nottingham City Council's L`bour leadership and the Communithes | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
Secretary Eric Pickles. The City Council today started legal | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
proceedings against the govdrnment department over rubbish outside | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
Lancaster House. That's a v`cant office block in the city whhch the | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
council says is owned by Mr Pickle's department. They tell us it isn t | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
theirs, but that it is registered to them. I hope he is here this Easter | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
weekend and clears black bags himself. I cannot see that | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
happening. They have not responded to us, they were given seven days's | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
noticed so that local residdnts were not inconvenienced. They fahled to | :03:16. | :03:22. | |
communicate with us and failed to act. The M1 motorway was partially | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
closed for much of this morning and early afternoon, following `n early | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
morning accident in Derbyshhre. The southbound carriageway was shut | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
between junctions 29 and 28 after a crash involving two lorries south of | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
the services. One of the drhvers has been seriously injured and hs being | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
treated in hospital. The ro`d has now reopened. To mark Good Friday, | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
there've been plenty of events happening across the region today. | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
Among them, in Nottingham, different faiths worshipped together. | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
Christians made their way to the Mosque in Bobbers Mill from the | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
United Reformed Church nearby. Muslims and Christians praydd | :03:52. | :03:53. | |
together outside ` to show tnity across the faiths. We have the same | :03:54. | :04:04. | |
aspirations and prayers, and the same feelings, and I think ht is | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
important to show those and communicate those to the wider | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
world. Sadly, we often see the divisions between Muslims and | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
Christians throughout the world and that is what gets the media's | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
attention, but from the grass roots, we want to show a different | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
way of being together. Sport now, and Derby County's game this evening | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
with Doncaster could see thd Rams secure a play`off place. Th`t kicks | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
off at 7.30. Catch live covdrage on BBC Radio Derby. Earlier thhs | :04:32. | :04:43. | |
afternoon, Notts County lost by a goal at Bristol City in the League | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
one. And in League Two, Mansfield Town were at Accrington, whdre it | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
ended in a one`all draw. Cr`cking weather so far for most of ts, let's | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
see what's in store for the rest of the Bank Holiday now with K`ye. | :04:54. | :04:54. | |
Town were at Accrington, whdre it ended in a Good evening, it has been | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
a lovely start to the bank holiday weekend, but we have seen the | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
brightest day of the festivhties as things turned cloudy. We will pick | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
up a easterly wind as well. The clouds will melt away this dvening, | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
and we have a dry night ahe`d. The temperatures will take a tulble once | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
again, and we will be close to freezing in rural spots by the | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
morning, maybe even a littld bit lower than that. A cold start, but | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
right as well. If you are up early, there will be sunshine, but we will | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
start to see changes through the day as well. It is going to be cloudier | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
for us but we will stay dry tomorrow. A little bit cooldr in the | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
wind with highs of 12 or 13 degrees. It looks like we will see an area of | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
low pressure from the south or east. There is some doubt as to how far | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
north that will go that there will be rain on Sunday. That is ht from | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
us, I will be back at 10:15pm. Goodbye. | :05:57. | :06:10. | |
Today we have seen temperatures rising if Scotland but again | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
tonight, with the clear skies and light wind temperatures will fall | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
sharply, and for many of us, we are looking at a touch of frost. The | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
satellite picture tells a story nicely. This belt of cloud is | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
sitting in the far north-west of Scotland, we have had this cloud | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
bubbling up across eastern areas and with the northerly wind it has felt | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
cold in East Anglia. That cloud is going to melt away, we will get an | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
easterly breeze picking the cloud back in again later in the night in | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
eastern areas and we still have this cloud and rain in the far north west | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
of Scotland, but for most we will have clear sky, light wind, Ness are | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
the temperatures in towns and city, spin it round into the countryside, | :06:48. | :06:54. | |
you can see it is colder, close to freezing, it could be down to | :06:55. | :06:55. |
