In Look East tonight, saved from closure after months of campaigning. | :00:05. | :00:09. | |
The government finally decides that tornado jets will stay at RAF | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
Marham. Also tonight, an impassioned appeal, | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
find the man that murdered my brother and his family. I want to | :00:20. | :00:28. | |
ask him, how could you... Stab a knife... In two and innocent girls | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
heart? Destination is Southend as a new | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
station and control tower owl opened. | :00:35. | :00:45. | |
:00:45. | :00:49. | ||
-- opened. First tonight: Success for the | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
campaign to save RAF Marham in Norfolk. RAF Marham is home to the | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
Tornado. It puts more than �130 million to the local economy. More | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
than 3,500 people work there, both military and civilian. And they | :01:04. | :01:08. | |
have more than 5,000 dependants. But the base has been under threat | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
as part of the government defence cuts. There was a huge local | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
campaign to save it. And today, those campaigners heard the news | :01:15. | :01:25. | |
:01:25. | :01:26. | ||
they've been waiting for. RAF Marham will remain as a base | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
for the tornado. We have sought to strengthen the strong and natural | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
link between local communities and the armed forces. I do not | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
underestimate these tyres in underpinning the military | :01:37. | :01:44. | |
government -- covenant. Let's go live to RAF Marham. | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
The County Council leader said that it may be a village but if you | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
think of it in terms of its wider population and its economic input | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
into the region, it is effectively the second biggest city in Norfolk | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
after King's Lynn. That is how important it is. We have heard -- | :02:05. | :02:15. | |
:02:15. | :02:16. | ||
we have had a game of musical chairs. RAF Leuchars in Scotland | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
could become an army base. Its Typhoons will move to Lossiemouth's. | :02:18. | :02:28. | |
:02:28. | :02:30. | ||
In turn, its four squadrons of Tornadoes will head to Marham. | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
RAF Marham and its tornadoes have been fighting on three fronts. In | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
Afghanistan, over Libya and on the home front, fighting to stay open, | :02:39. | :02:45. | |
to stay flying. For businesses, huge relief. It is embedded in the | :02:45. | :02:51. | |
community. The business as we do with them, temples at -- 10% of it | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
is from RAF Marham. We do deliver personal flowers and things, so it | :02:56. | :03:02. | |
is good news to hear. There are people that move on from Marham, | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
and the new blood coming in, young guys on their own, sometimes two or | :03:07. | :03:14. | |
three of them together, vital for the rental perspective. More than | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
5,000 jobs depend on the base, twice as many as its main rival. At | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
7.4%, unemployment locally is almost twice as high as in Moray, | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
and all the major tornadoes servicing is done at Marham. The | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
local papers spearheaded a huge campaign to keep the station open, | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
culminating in the delivery of a petition to Downing Street. When we | :03:37. | :03:43. | |
launched the campaign, we put a petition form in front of them, the | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
first time we have done that in the newspaper's history. We got 37,000 | :03:48. | :03:55. | |
signatures in just a week. With the squadron back en route to | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
Afghanistan, RAF Marham's case for survival is strong. Crucial was | :04:01. | :04:09. | |
BA's servicing base here. The tornado itself is an ageing plane, | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
nearing the age of its life, so RAF Marham's long-term future it isn't | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
secure. The base will carry on for another five years, but we are | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
really keen that we get another aircraft when the tornado departs. | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
This is the beginning of the campaign, not the end. | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
If you were to turn this into an army base, it would sit -- generate | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
�75 million a year for the local economy, half of what it generates | :04:39. | :04:45. | |
as an RAF station. This is the region's only fast jet base, and | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
campaigners want it to stay that way. | :04:48. | :04:55. | |
Elizabeth Truss is the MP for South West Norfolk. She is an Westminster. | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
This is a short-term victory in a long-term battle, isn't it? | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
Tornado will be in service until 2020, so it is an important | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
economic gain an the medium term. We do want to maintain the long- | :05:10. | :05:18. | |
term as well. The minister said the decision on where the joint striker | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
will be based, subsequent to the Tornado, that is wide open, and the | :05:24. | :05:29. | |
case for RAF Marham is to be made. So, you have closed one campaign, | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
another one starts today? already started that campaign in | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
concurrence with the Tornado campaign, but we need to understand | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
when the decision is going to be made. What is so important is that | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
North of's voice is being heard, people are prepared to sign the | :05:46. | :05:52. | |
petition, we have had huge support from the press, the local media, | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
from the radio, and it has brought a huge amount of people in, and we | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
need to use that strength. Very disappointed the Typhoon has a new | :06:00. | :06:06. | |
home, and probably will not be coming here? I think that a | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
separate -- particular type of jet, and what I want to see is the | :06:09. | :06:17. | |
expertise of the Tornado focused in Marham, and the joint striker. | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
you frustrated this has taken so long for them to make this decision, | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
when, really, they could have take -- told people months ago prisoner | :06:26. | :06:33. | |
there have been rumours circulating for some time, and they understand | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
the Ministry of Defence wanted to see where the army was going to go. | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
I am pleased it has been delivered before 19th July, one day before, | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
and we do have a result now. say they have been rumours, so were | :06:48. | :06:57. | |
you given a nod and a wink? No, but the MoD had various views, which | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
changed over time, but we could never be certain, and that is why | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
we now know where their families are going to be based, local | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
businesses can make plans about investing. This is great news for | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
young people that want to do apprenticeships, and the local | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
engineering firms. But it is very positive news. | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
Relatives of the Ding family, who were murdered in their home in | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
Northampton, have appealed for help in catching the killer. The | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
relatives, one from America and another from China, have come to | :07:27. | :07:35. | |
this country to help the police. This report from Mike Cartwright. | :07:35. | :07:43. | |
Stabbed to death and their homes. Jifeng Ding, his wife, Helen, their | :07:43. | :07:53. | |
:07:53. | :07:53. | ||
daughter, Xing, and Alice. I want to ask him, how could you stab a | :07:53. | :08:01. | |
knife into an innocent girl's heart? Not once, but twice?! How | :08:01. | :08:09. | |
could you do that? An innocent girl might. I also want to know what | :08:09. | :08:17. | |
he's feeling is, whether he has been the feeling. When he saw the | :08:17. | :08:24. | |
girls expressions. The brother, his anger, anguish, and astonishment | :08:24. | :08:32. | |
directed towards this man, Anxiang Du, prime suspect in the murder | :08:32. | :08:41. | |
investigation. This is Helen putts sister in law. | :08:41. | :08:50. | |
She is too afraid to show her face. Her was a translator. The way he | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
did it, the brutality, it has shocked the world. He has shocked | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
the family, and he has broken the peace and tranquillity for the rest | :09:00. | :09:08. | |
of our family. The killings took place 10 weeks ago. The trail to | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
Anxiang Du increasingly cold. have no confirmed sightings of the | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
man. We are working through the intelligence and all the | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
information available to try to flush him out. A remembrance | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
service was held for the family last week. The family now having to | :09:24. | :09:34. | |
live with how they died. Brittle. Absolutely brittle. It is beyond my | :09:34. | :09:43. | |
imagination. It is beyond the imagination of any human being. | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
Jixiang Ding ending that report by Mike Cartwright. And anyone with | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
information is asked to call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
Five Lithuanian men who died in an explosion at an industrial unit in | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
Lincolnshire last week were all from the Peterborough area. Police | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
today confirmed that the unit was being used to produce illegal | :10:01. | :10:06. | |
alcohol. Five days on and the forensic work | :10:06. | :10:15. | |
is still going on at this small industrial unit. This is going to | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
be a slow and meticulous investigation, taking some time for | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
our inquiries to be finished. Police have extended their cordon | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
and widened their investigation 30 miles or so south to Peterborough. | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
The Lithuanian embassy helped confirmed the identities of the | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
dead men and inform their next of kin. They are Vaidas Krupenkinas, | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
Ovidijus Majeris, Laimutis Simkus, Ricardas Gecas and Erlandas | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
Duzinskas, who was just 18. A sixth man suffering from severe burn | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
remains unnamed. In Peterborough today, most Lithuanians had little | :10:43. | :10:50. | |
to say. Community workers tell me that the Lithuanian group is | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
notoriously hard to reach. They represent a tiny proportion of the | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
population but are responsible for a disproportionate amount of | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
trouble, most of it related to alcohol. Among those more willing | :11:03. | :11:11. | |
to co-operate, there was little surprise about the revelations. | :11:11. | :11:19. | |
Back in with the winger, yes. -- back in Lithuania. But this is the | :11:19. | :11:29. | |
first time I have heard of it here. It is not good publicity for us. | :11:29. | :11:37. | |
Most of us are just trying to create Ibberton life for us. -- a | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
better life. The exact cause of the explosion has not yet been revealed, | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
but Lincolnshire Police today confirmed that the unit housed a | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
filtration plant that was being used for the production of illicit | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
alcohol being distributed and sold as vodka. | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
There's plenty still to come on tonight's Look East, including | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
music and mud at the Latitude Festival in Suffolk. | :11:54. | :12:04. | |

Hi, I'm Ed Sheeran. Find out about A Government Minister visited | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
Southend Airport today. Bob Neill said the airport's plans for more | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
flights and more passengers were a welcome boost for the region's | :12:20. | :12:22. | |
economy. But opponents of the expansion believe the benefits are | :12:22. | :12:30. | |
exaggerated. The airport's new control tower, | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
officially open this morning. To mark a new -- to mark the big day, | :12:34. | :12:40. | |
a government minister unveiling the plaque. Despite widespread economic | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
gloom, Southend Airport is getting bigger. Much be good. This is going | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
to generate considerable new business in the area, opening up in | :12:49. | :12:55. | |
this part of Essex, to Europe. You get an idea of how much work is | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
going on at the airport. The grey building down there, that is the | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
new terminal. Next to it, they are building enough stands for 10 | :13:05. | :13:11. | |
aircraft. Watching this of the last two-and-half years expand from | :13:11. | :13:15. | |
nothing into something has been amazing. EasyJet is already | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
announcing it will be flying to three European destinations from | :13:20. | :13:26. | |
next year and several more will be announced next week. The airport is | :13:26. | :13:33. | |
aiming for 2 million passengers by 2020. Who would use -- what would | :13:33. | :13:40. | |
she say to somebody living near here? We operate within the | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
guidelines. We are clearly sensitive to local communities... | :13:45. | :13:53. | |
But a protest group stopped -- believe that fewer jobs will be | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
created than trumpeted by the airport, although managers believe | :13:56. | :14:03. | |
that many people support the airport. Many people will remember | :14:03. | :14:09. | |
that in the 60s it was a very busy airport. We need to expand it. | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
Trains stopped at the new railway station for the first time today | :14:13. | :14:18. | |
and a minister's last official duty was to pretend to catch one. | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
The Health and Safety Executive is investigating the deaths of two men | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
in a slurry tank on a farm in South Essex. They were trapped in the | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
tank at Stapleford Tawney near Ongar on Friday evening. One of the | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
men came from Norfolk. The other was local to the area. | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
A 24-year-old man from Ipswich has been released on police bail | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
following an allegation of rape at the Latitude Festival in Suffolk. | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
The incident is said to have happened yesterday inside a tent on | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
the staff campsite. We'll have more on the festival later in the | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
programme. An exclusion zone has now been | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
lifted after a chemical spill in Haverhill in Suffolk. It happened | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
at the International Fragrances and Flavours factory. It's thought a | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
tonne of light powder reacted with the rain to produce toxic fumes. | :14:59. | :15:04. | |
The clearing up operation will continue this evening. | :15:04. | :15:07. | |
Lotus Cars has told the Business Secretary Vince Cable it wants to | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
create up to 1,200 new jobs in Norfolk over the next five years. | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
Lotus is bidding for a grant from the Government as part of its plans | :15:14. | :15:23. | |
to expand. We are very proud of what we do... | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
They say if you've got it, you should flaunt it and that's what | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
Lotus were up to with Vince Cable. The Norfolk car maker's failed in a | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
bid to get �27 million of Government money and have now re- | :15:32. | :15:42. | |
:15:42. | :15:42. | ||
applied for �10 million. It is a competitive process. The bids are | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
independently assessed. But they have clearly got a good operation | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
here. Mr Cable was shown the new range of Lotus cars. He had ride in | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
a black cab. It's electric and has some clever Lotus engineering. The | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
company were keen to point the Business Secretary's visit had | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
nothing to do with Government grants but were keen for the visit | :15:59. | :16:09. | |
:16:09. | :16:12. | ||
to be success. I believe it was time that he visits us. He has seen | :16:12. | :16:21. | |
our ambitious plans. He has been made aware. It is very good that we | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
see a representative of the government to come and see first | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
hand. And just in case you thought it was all business for the | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
Business Secretary, he had a spin in an Evora. Origin of this? I have | :16:30. | :16:38. | |
got a very good driver, so no reason why I should be Nova's. -- | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
nervous. Lotus say they want to create up to 1,200 jobs at its | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
Hethel factory. That may or may not depend on Government help. But | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
Vince Cable was clearly impressed by Lotus and their cars. | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
The Wisbech bypass on the A47 is closed in both directions after a | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
head on crash involving two cars. The air ambulance was called after | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
reports that a man was trapped. It happened between the Elm Hall and | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
Lynn roundabouts. The road is expected to be closed for some time. | :17:04. | :17:07. | |
A mine from the Second World War, discovered on the sea bed off the | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
coast of Essex, still hasn't been blown up. Navy divers were planning | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
a controlled explosion today but it's been delayed because of the | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
bad weather. Now, your 100th birthday is when | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
many people are slowing down and taking it easy. But not Roger | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
Washbourn from Norwich. He could be one of the oldest silver surfers in | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
the country and is learning to use the internet to stay in touch with | :17:30. | :17:40. | |
:17:40. | :17:41. | ||
He may have had his 100th birthday greetings from the Queen 3 months | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
ago, but Roger Washbourn is embracing the future with weekly | :17:44. | :17:54. | |
:17:54. | :17:54. | ||
lessons in the IT suite at Norwich City Football Club. It gives me | :17:54. | :18:02. | |
something to think about. Sometimes, it doesn't work, but it is awfully | :18:02. | :18:10. | |
good, because I can solve the problem, and I fear will good. -- I | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
feel good. Keeping in touch by email with his ever growing family | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
around the world is one of Roger's main motivations. He's one of the | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
oldest people in the country to participate in the BBC's First | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
Click campaign. To many, he's an inspiration. Roger it is very | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
special because he is 100 years old. Because he embraces the computer. | :18:29. | :18:35. | |
He uses it. He is enthusiastic about it, and he is a perfect role | :18:35. | :18:39. | |
model. As well as emails, Roger does all his banking online as well | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
as some of his shopping. And his advice to those who may be scared | :18:42. | :18:52. | |
:18:52. | :19:05. | ||
of new technology. Give it go. Did you manage to stay dry and | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
warm? Despite the worst weather in the | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
history of the Latitude Festival, more than 100,000 people turned out | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
for a long weekend of music, poetry, and dance. And there was everything | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
from pop singer Paloma Faith... To comedy from Never Mind The | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
Buzzcocks. Tractors and trucks were brought in to help people who got | :19:22. | :19:32. | |
:19:32. | :19:40. | ||
With the changeable weather, you just did not know what to wear. But | :19:40. | :19:46. | |
thousands of fans braved the elements to see Ed Sheeran. My name | :19:46. | :19:53. | |
is ate. -- my name is Ed Sheeran. I was brought up and Framlingham. | :19:53. | :20:03. | |
:20:03. | :20:16. | ||
It is wonderful to see how many people turned up with their | :20:16. | :20:24. | |
umbrellas. Last year, that was great. I've never had that much fun. | :20:24. | :20:31. | |
It felt like such a good homecoming. I have always wanted to come to | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
Latitude Festival. From a really young age, it was always about | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
trying to get on the bill to go to the festival, and I still feel like | :20:40. | :20:46. | |
that. I feel like, yes, I'm going to Latitude. Sadler's Wells were | :20:46. | :20:53. | |
back with a selection of stunning performances. A preview of | :20:53. | :21:03. | |

ZooNation's of Some Like it Hip Hop. And a snapshot of a story of Fela | :21:03. | :21:09. | |
Kuti. It was great. Surrounded by the | :21:09. | :21:15. | |
water. The audience behind it. That was unique. The winner of the | :21:15. | :21:21. | |
second Latitude Contemporary Art Award was Andy Harper for his | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
three-dimensional art work. So, what were the first to four | :21:25. | :21:32. | |
highlight? KT Tunstall. How's the weather dampened your spirits was | :21:32. | :21:41. | |
made no. Not at all. We love it. haven't let it dampen our spirits. | :21:41. | :21:46. | |
Ed Sheeran was the highlight. Everyone I've spoken to has really | :21:46. | :21:52. | |
enjoyed the dance, poetry and music. We will take home the weather, the | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
sunshine and the show was, that just wouldn't go. That will not | :21:56. | :22:06. | |

stop thousands more from heading It all adds to the atmosphere. | :22:09. | :22:17. | |
We like that, will you marry me, poster. Always remember to get in | :22:17. | :22:25. | |
Let's go back to our top story tonight and the news that RAF | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
Marham in Norfolk is to remain open. The Defence Secretary Liam Fox made | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
the announcement today in a statement about defence spending. | :22:30. | :22:34. | |
It follows a long campaign to save the Home of the Tornado. Our | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
Political Correspondent Andrew Sinclair is at Westminster now. | :22:39. | :22:45. | |
Andrew, how serious was the risk to Marham? | :22:45. | :22:51. | |
On paper, it made sense to keep it open. Both economically and | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
strategically. The trust look at what they are doing in Libya. This | :22:56. | :23:02. | |
review was always going to be a very political decision. You cannot | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
overestimate the sensitivity down here about fanning the flames of | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
Scottish nationalism before the election and particularly after the | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
election with a Scottish Government, talking about holding a referendum | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
of taking us out of the Union. Ministers will have been very | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
sensitive about upsetting the Scots. It would have cost about �60 | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
million to move, but that is very small change and they could have | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
done that. The fear of Norfolk's councillors is that if there hadn't | :23:32. | :23:36. | |
been a camping, the government could have said, let us close RAF | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
Marham because nobody cares about Elizabeth Truss was born at about | :23:40. | :23:44. | |
the future, but what was your feeling about it? | :23:44. | :23:51. | |
She was right. We are likely to have the Tornado for about 10 years, | :23:51. | :23:57. | |
but we will have to revisit RAF Marham, and there is hope that the | :23:57. | :24:03. | |
new replacement for the Tornado might come to RAF Marham. There is | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
talk about developing the engineering facilities there. Now | :24:07. | :24:13. | |
the Tornado is going to be serviced at Marham exclusively, it is being | :24:13. | :24:21. | |
talked about as a centre of excellence. People hope that Marham | :24:21. | :24:25. | |
will be essential to the RAF in 10 years to month. | :24:25. | :24:31. | |
The big national story down here is about the decision to focus less on | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
full-time soldiers and more on reservists, which will have an | :24:34. | :24:40. | |
impact on the region. Some things I have gleaned is that the Waterbeach | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
Barracks will close. They will be redeveloped for housing. We also | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
hear that at Cottesmore, on the outskirts of the region, that RAF | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
base is going to receive the army I know we complained about not | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
having enough rain, but now we have had enough. | :25:02. | :25:07. | |
Yes, we have had a lot of rain fall. That is because of the low pressure | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
close by. It is just off the East coast of Scotland, and until it | :25:12. | :25:18. | |
pulls away, we will be wrapped in court and showery conditions. Look | :25:18. | :25:27. | |
at the rainfall totals over the weekend. They are pretty high. Many | :25:27. | :25:35. | |
other locations, 20-30 mm. If we look at the rain for today, | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
this is the radar chart showing the rain, we did have some heavy | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
showers. There are still a few around now. They are attending to | :25:45. | :25:53. | |
become a few more isolated. So, overnight, most of us will be dry. | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
We will see some clear spells developing. A good covering of | :25:57. | :26:04. | |
cloud, meaning temperatures will not fall lower than about 12. The | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
winds have eased off already, and they will be a light south-westerly | :26:09. | :26:18. | |
direction. Tomorrow, a similar sort of day, with a few changes. Heavy | :26:18. | :26:23. | |
showers with some sunny intervals, and they may warm things up a bit | :26:23. | :26:30. | |
for tomorrow. The winds may be lighter. A dry start, but then | :26:30. | :26:37. | |
showers scattered across the region, with one or two quite heavy. | :26:37. | :26:42. | |
Highest tomorrow of 19. The winds will be mostly light, mostly coming | :26:42. | :26:49. | |
from a westerly direction, picking up through the afternoon. Through | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
the afternoon, we have got a further risk of some showers, but | :26:52. | :26:57. | |
they tend to become more isolated by the time we get to evening with | :26:57. | :27:02. | |
some places getting some sunshine. The next five days, an uncertain | :27:02. | :27:07. | |
picture. We might get heavy showers tomorrow. Wednesday and Thursday, | :27:07. | :27:14. | |
still some heavy showers expected. Thursday looks like the cloudy day. | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
Friday is mainly dry, with sunny intervals with a chance of a light | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
shower. The high pressure dominating the scene by the weekend, | :27:23. | :27:32. |
