Victory for the A14 campaigners in East Anglia tonight as the

:00:08.:00:11.

Government bows to pressure and scraps plans to charge a toll. It

:00:12.:00:19.

would have been an additional cost for not just us but the whole of the

:00:20.:00:24.

area, and as a growth area, the last thing we need is additional cost.

:00:25.:00:27.

Hello and welcome to Look East with Amelia and me. Also tonight: The

:00:28.:00:30.

death of a 12`year`old girl in a school gym. A coroner decides today

:00:31.:00:34.

it was a tragic accident with no`one to blame. The Prince of Wales pays

:00:35.:00:38.

tribute to the women who risked their lives as secret agents during

:00:39.:00:43.

the Second World War. And the bidding started at two million ` and

:00:44.:00:46.

climbed to four. A potential superstar is sold at the Newmarket

:00:47.:00:48.

sales. Campaigners in Suffolk are claiming

:00:49.:01:03.

a victory tonight after a controversial plan to charge drivers

:01:04.:01:04.

to use the A14 was thrown out. Government ministers have been under

:01:05.:01:11.

pressure for weeks over the proposal to introduce a toll road to pay for

:01:12.:01:14.

urgent improvements in Cambridgeshire. The official

:01:15.:01:20.

announcement is expected tomorrow. Today's climb`down follows weeks of

:01:21.:01:23.

pressure and lobbying from MPs and business groups. Our own recent

:01:24.:01:27.

reports have been pointing to a change of heart. And today, a leaked

:01:28.:01:31.

report in the Financial Times put things beyond doubt. The tolling

:01:32.:01:35.

plan is controversial because the A14 corridor is the main link

:01:36.:01:39.

between the Midlands and the port of Felixstowe. Some described it as a

:01:40.:01:46.

tax on Suffolk. The route is used by 40% of the UK's container trade. So

:01:47.:01:51.

how did it come about? Thirteen years ago, Tony Blair's government

:01:52.:01:54.

announced a new A14 would be built between Cambridge and Huntingdon.

:01:55.:01:59.

But in 2010, the newly`elected Coalition scrapped it saying there

:02:00.:02:05.

wasn't enough money. In September this year, the Government announced

:02:06.:02:09.

a ?1.5 billion scheme to upgrade the route. It would run for 12 miles

:02:10.:02:13.

between Ellington and the Cambridge services near Boxworth. Cars would

:02:14.:02:19.

have been charged between ?1 and ?1.50. Lorries, ?3. So let's start

:02:20.:02:24.

with Richard Daniel, and the campaign in Suffolk to stop the

:02:25.:02:32.

toll. In a huge warehouse outside Bury Saint Edmunds, goods exported

:02:33.:02:37.

through Felixstowe are sorted and stored. Almost everything goes on

:02:38.:02:42.

the A14 to the Midlands and the North. No surprise that they were

:02:43.:02:48.

opposed to the toll. What this company and many across Suffolk

:02:49.:02:51.

argued was that the toll amounted to attacks, `` a tax. It would have put

:02:52.:03:00.

them at a disadvantage. Any upgrade will be a benefit, but as soon as

:03:01.:03:04.

you start paying for that by way of a toll, you are taxing us as users

:03:05.:03:10.

of the A14, which makes us less competitive against rivals. Within

:03:11.:03:16.

weeks of the announcement, the backlash began. There was concern it

:03:17.:03:21.

would hit the port of Felixstowe and the thousands of jobs that depend on

:03:22.:03:26.

it. Jobs like these, where they were sourcing fruit. It is also one of

:03:27.:03:33.

the region's largest hauliers, and it would have meant a bill of six

:03:34.:03:39.

figures. We have approximately 300 loads in and out of this site, that

:03:40.:03:44.

doubles at Christmas, at least 300`401 cost, we would have to pay.

:03:45.:03:53.

At this truckstop, relief that the government has had a change of

:03:54.:03:58.

heart. Fantastic. Common sense. We pay enough on the roads. We would've

:03:59.:04:04.

had to stop and pay, it would have been even worse. It is bad enough.

:04:05.:04:10.

In order to have new infrastructure we needed to find ways of funding

:04:11.:04:15.

it. In this instance, this was not the right way to go. We made it

:04:16.:04:19.

plain to the Prime Minister and explained. They understood the

:04:20.:04:23.

argument and have taken it on board. Not everybody is happy. The new road

:04:24.:04:28.

will pass a few metres from this woman's home. She fears it will mean

:04:29.:04:34.

more vehicles. We won't be able to sleep at night, there will be more

:04:35.:04:39.

accidents, because they will just go mad like they always do, full. In

:04:40.:04:46.

Suffolk there is relief that this has been scrapped. Let's hear from

:04:47.:04:54.

our business correspondent Richard Bond. We've heard from the hauliers,

:04:55.:04:57.

but what's been the reaction from wider business community? Much

:04:58.:05:00.

relief ` the perception is we're going to get a new road for free,

:05:01.:05:04.

even though it won't be because we as taxpayers will have to pay for

:05:05.:05:08.

it. But business has been on an interesting journey with this road.

:05:09.:05:12.

When the original scheme was scrapped after the 2010 election,

:05:13.:05:15.

the CBI suggested tolling as a way of reviving this very important road

:05:16.:05:21.

project at a time of austerity. The government took up that idea. They

:05:22.:05:28.

expected the region to be grateful for that. What it got was a backlash

:05:29.:05:34.

from the business community. Because nobody wants a toll road? Indeed

:05:35.:05:42.

not. One of the problems in this country is that toll roads are so

:05:43.:05:46.

unusual. In France, there are loads of them, they cover thousands of

:05:47.:05:50.

miles. Possibly a region over there would feel left out if they did not

:05:51.:05:53.

have it. In Britain it is the opposite. There would be an

:05:54.:05:59.

attitude, why would we have to pay to use it when most regions don't?

:06:00.:06:05.

How big a player was Felixstowe in all of this? It was not happy with

:06:06.:06:12.

this proposal, it obviously faces competition from London Gateway in

:06:13.:06:19.

Essex. Had it gone ahead, hauliers using Felixstowe would have faced

:06:20.:06:26.

the toll. That would have been unfair. 30,000 jobs depend on

:06:27.:06:30.

Felixstowe, that might have had an influence. Thank you. The official

:06:31.:06:33.

announcement tomorrow represents a big victory for campaigners who

:06:34.:06:37.

argued that a toll road on the A14 in Cambridgeshire would effectively

:06:38.:06:40.

be a tax on drivers in Suffolk. That campaign was co`ordinated by the

:06:41.:06:43.

Suffolk Chamber of Commerce. Its spokesman, Stephen Britt, is in

:06:44.:06:51.

Felixstowe now. Isn't this really a case be careful what you wish for? A

:06:52.:06:58.

small toll is one thing but congestion will cost a lot more.

:06:59.:07:04.

Good evening. First thing I would say is we don't want to pre`empt any

:07:05.:07:08.

announcement that may or may not be made tomorrow, but if this is true,

:07:09.:07:13.

the news leaking out today, we are very pleased. As you say, the

:07:14.:07:17.

campaign, fronted by the Suffolk Chamber of Commerce, involving local

:07:18.:07:22.

businesses, local MPs and other business voices in the county, we

:07:23.:07:31.

are really pleased. I understand you are pleased. Just to go back to my

:07:32.:07:38.

question, wouldn't it be cheaper to pay a small toll land to sit for

:07:39.:07:41.

hours in traffic because we haven't got a good enough road? Doing it on

:07:42.:07:50.

this one small bit of the UK road network would be totally unfair. If

:07:51.:07:54.

the government wants to try it, they should do a programme across the

:07:55.:07:58.

country. Some people would say that if you use it you should pay for it,

:07:59.:08:02.

and you should not need to if you don't use it. That applies to every

:08:03.:08:07.

road in the country, so that argument does not really apply. Have

:08:08.:08:12.

you had any nods and winks from the government about where we stand now?

:08:13.:08:20.

None whatsoever. We woke up this morning to see the news in all the

:08:21.:08:27.

various broadcast, and it was a surprise to all of us. I don't think

:08:28.:08:32.

even our local MPs were aware of what was being announced by Danny

:08:33.:08:37.

Alexander. When did you get a feeling that things were moving your

:08:38.:08:44.

way? Did they tell you that? They have not said that at all at any

:08:45.:08:48.

point. All they have been doing is listening to our concerns, we have

:08:49.:08:51.

been making the point again and again, MPs saw the Prime Minister a

:08:52.:08:56.

few weeks ago, they have seen the Chancellor, I was at a meeting a few

:08:57.:09:03.

weeks ago where we lobbied the Chancellor again, and last week,

:09:04.:09:08.

some local businesses went to see Patrick McLoughlin, the transport

:09:09.:09:13.

Secretary, and we said the same thing to him. What do you think this

:09:14.:09:17.

means for the port of Felixstowe? It will be good news for the port. It

:09:18.:09:22.

keeps the port on a level playing field with all the other ports in

:09:23.:09:25.

the UK. Thank you for being with us this evening. We will be getting

:09:26.:09:30.

political reaction to that story from Westminster later in the

:09:31.:09:33.

programme. And I'll have more on tonight's Look East late news. Join

:09:34.:09:36.

me at 10:25 after the BBC Ten O'Clock News. In other news, tonight

:09:37.:09:40.

an inquest has been told that the death of a 12`year`old girl during a

:09:41.:09:43.

PE lesson was a "tragic accident". Trevyn Joslin, who lived in Thorpe

:09:44.:09:46.

Marriott near Norwich, died in hospital a week after she was

:09:47.:09:49.

injured by falling from a pommel horse at Taverham High School.

:09:50.:09:56.

Trevyn Joslin's mother arriving at the hearing, hugging the teacher at

:09:57.:10:05.

the centre of the tragedy. The teacher said she was enthusiastic

:10:06.:10:09.

and very confident, one of the better gymnast in the group. She

:10:10.:10:13.

said, she went to make the jump, ran up perfectly well, her feet were on

:10:14.:10:18.

the springboard, she reached for the handles, lifted her legs, her right

:10:19.:10:22.

fruit cop the front of the horse, she toppled forward. `` caught. She

:10:23.:10:29.

landed facedown on the mat. She was trying to most words. She was

:10:30.:10:35.

struggling to breathe. We realised that was serious. Another teacher

:10:36.:10:42.

said the school database included a note that she had a medical

:10:43.:10:46.

condition involving her neck, with a reduction of space between vertebra

:10:47.:10:52.

because of a previous infection. Her GP had voiced concern that there was

:10:53.:10:56.

potential weakness in her neck. Under the direction of the assistant

:10:57.:11:00.

coroner, the jury decided she had died as a result of the accident. We

:11:01.:11:07.

shall never forget her. The memorial garden is much loved and well

:11:08.:11:12.

tended. It is a quiet place where all can sit and reflect. The cherry

:11:13.:11:19.

tree planted in her memory will be an everlasting tribute to her and

:11:20.:11:25.

the contribution she may to our school and the lives of her fellow

:11:26.:11:30.

students. Investigations by the police and health and safety

:11:31.:11:35.

executive found no fault with the school or the teachers. They said

:11:36.:11:38.

they have carried out a comprehensive review of all health

:11:39.:11:43.

and safety procedures. The family left after hearing part of a report

:11:44.:11:47.

from the Home Office pathologist. He said what happened to their daughter

:11:48.:11:52.

could have caused fatal injuries even in someone with a perfectly

:11:53.:11:53.

normal neck. Plans for a new junction on the M11

:11:54.:12:05.

in Essex have been published for the first time. It would be at Harlow,

:12:06.:12:09.

where the local MP says it's desperately needed because gridlock

:12:10.:12:14.

is choking economic growth. From the M11, there is only one road into

:12:15.:12:20.

Harlow, and the traffic is often busy. Getting in and out of the tone

:12:21.:12:23.

can be frustrating. You only need one accident or breakdown going on

:12:24.:12:31.

the M11, or one accident on the end 25, and it becomes gridlocked. That

:12:32.:12:36.

is frustrating for companies like this. Lorries are often stuck in the

:12:37.:12:43.

traffic jams. Anything that would improve the logistics of getting in

:12:44.:12:46.

and out of Harlow would improve the business and we think it would

:12:47.:12:50.

improve the town. Planners did not help matters when it was built,

:12:51.:12:55.

thinking the M11 would go to the west of the tone, that is where they

:12:56.:13:00.

booed the industrial estates. The M11 actually went East. Today, plans

:13:01.:13:06.

for a new junction went on display. The MP says it will transform the

:13:07.:13:12.

economy. Surveys suggest there would be about 5000 new jobs created,

:13:13.:13:16.

because more companies would come into Harlow, and existing companies

:13:17.:13:22.

would expand. Because any new junction would be on the same side

:13:23.:13:26.

of tone, it seems some of the constituents need some convincing.

:13:27.:13:30.

It may solve it or help it for five years but then it will be like the

:13:31.:13:37.

M25, make it bigger and bigger. S I think it will make Harlow more

:13:38.:13:43.

gridlocked than it is already. It is a long way off. The plans still need

:13:44.:13:45.

government approval. Still to come: Famous Frankel's

:13:46.:14:03.

first child fetches a fortune. We search for our sporting unsung hero.

:14:04.:14:10.

The Prince of Wales has spent the day in Bedfordshire. He looked round

:14:11.:14:14.

a cereal factory and enjoyed a half pint of beer in a pub. He also

:14:15.:14:18.

unveiled a memorial to the women who were secret agents during World War

:14:19.:14:22.

Two. During the war, 75 women ` mainly British and from all over the

:14:23.:14:25.

country ` put their lives on the line. Most were dropped by parachute

:14:26.:14:28.

on moonlit nights behind enemy lines. Lots of them were captured.

:14:29.:14:31.

16 were killed. Our reporter Neil Bradford was with Prince Charles

:14:32.:14:33.

today. It was a very public celebration of

:14:34.:14:43.

this village's secretive past. The Prince of Wales was the guest of

:14:44.:14:46.

honour. He unveiled a memorial to the women who flew from nearby RAF

:14:47.:14:52.

bases during the Second World War. It was so secretive, not even the

:14:53.:14:57.

locals knew what happened there. It was so secret that even the

:14:58.:14:59.

villagers did not know what happened there. They knew that planes went in

:15:00.:15:05.

and out but did not know why. It has since become a farm and closed down.

:15:06.:15:13.

75 female agents flew, dropped behind enemy lines to take part in a

:15:14.:15:18.

variety of missions. Among them was this woman, who signed up to the

:15:19.:15:23.

special operations executive, to get her own back after her husband was

:15:24.:15:30.

killed in action. She was captured in France, after a battle. She

:15:31.:15:37.

killed at least one soldier and wounded others. Those who work for

:15:38.:15:43.

the special operations executive only felt able to share their

:15:44.:15:46.

secrets decades later. My mother thought I worked for the Ministry of

:15:47.:15:53.

fish. She died at almost 80 without ever knowing the truth. We were

:15:54.:15:57.

under the official secrets act and it was not until 2000 when the files

:15:58.:16:02.

were open to the public and she was allowed to talk. Most of us were

:16:03.:16:08.

dead by then. This was one of four in Gidman is for his Royal high. He

:16:09.:16:13.

met local artists and schoolchildren at an art gallery. He also called in

:16:14.:16:22.

on a Christmas tree Festival. He met factory workers and business

:16:23.:16:22.

leaders. Despite the busy itinerary, the

:16:23.:16:33.

Prince still had time for a swift half. He joined the veterans, to

:16:34.:16:38.

revel in their stories. Thanks to this memorial, they will now always

:16:39.:16:40.

be remembered. The search for the BBC East Sports

:16:41.:16:49.

Unsung Hero is almost at an end. We're down to a short list of three.

:16:50.:16:53.

We're looking for that special person who works tirelessly behind

:16:54.:16:56.

the scenes to make sure others enjoy their sport. Tonight the first

:16:57.:16:59.

person on our short list is the driving force behind a netball team,

:17:00.:17:02.

the Hertfordshire Mavericks. Gloria Keech gives up 50 hours a week to

:17:03.:17:06.

make sure hundreds of girls enjoy netball.

:17:07.:17:12.

For nearly 45 years, Gloria Keech has lived and breathed netball. You

:17:13.:17:23.

will find her courtside at the Hertfordshire Mavericks, the super

:17:24.:17:26.

league club she set up from scratch. I have played since I was nine. I

:17:27.:17:31.

find netball is a team sport, the camaraderie in netball is second to

:17:32.:17:39.

none. She gets her hands dirty, she has a range of skills.

:17:40.:17:45.

She is the heart and soul. We would not have a franchise, compete

:17:46.:17:52.

nationally, if it was not for her. This region did not have a netball

:17:53.:17:56.

team in the top division before Gloria Keech stepped in. Though they

:17:57.:18:01.

have won league titles, produced England players, and regularly

:18:02.:18:06.

attract crowds of nearly 1000 fans. It goes down to grassroots. It is

:18:07.:18:16.

not just the elite level. Gloria's role is in the background, just how

:18:17.:18:20.

she likes it. The forms get filled in, the club takes over, which

:18:21.:18:23.

operates thanks to a team of volunteers set up by, guess who?

:18:24.:18:31.

Development is our middle name. It is not just about developing

:18:32.:18:35.

players, it is officials, anybody associated, right down to match the

:18:36.:18:40.

volunteers. There is still time to cheer the Bedfordshire County

:18:41.:18:44.

committee. Seven days, 50 hours a week, netball is lucky to have her

:18:45.:18:52.

on the sidelines. The winner will be announced on Friday. Tomorrow we

:18:53.:18:57.

stay with netball and the coach from Essex who's given more than 40 years

:18:58.:19:01.

to the sport. Sheikh Mohammed has bought himself another very

:19:02.:19:03.

expensive piece of horse flesh. He has paid a near world record for a

:19:04.:19:07.

foal fathered by the undefeated champion Frankel. The Sheikh's

:19:08.:19:10.

latest acquisition came at a packed auction in Newmarket. But no`one

:19:11.:19:13.

today could admire the form of this potential superstar ` because the

:19:14.:19:16.

foal hasn't been born yet. Our sports reporter Tom Williams was

:19:17.:19:18.

there when the hammer went down. The energy, the excitement, the

:19:19.:19:32.

anticipation, palpable. Tattersalls is packed to the rafters. Every

:19:33.:19:36.

mover and shaker is eager to catch a glimpse of history in the making.

:19:37.:19:47.

Dancing Rain, in foal to Frankel, is it a match made in heaven? The

:19:48.:19:52.

beauty is nobody knows the answer, but if she inherits any of his

:19:53.:19:56.

class, and her class, it has a good chance. Dancing Rain's finest hour

:19:57.:20:00.

came two years ago at Epsom. Storming finish, the only winner

:20:01.:20:13.

carrying her first foal to be offered at public auction in the

:20:14.:20:23.

first 50 years. The world record for a brood mare currently stands at ?4

:20:24.:20:30.

million. An expectant hush. This was the first of Frankel's foals to be

:20:31.:20:34.

sold in the UK. John Ferguson entered at 4 million,

:20:35.:20:43.

bidding on behalf of Sheikh Mohammed, the ruler of Dubai. This

:20:44.:20:50.

was a horse he needed to have. S you can think it is a lot of money but

:20:51.:20:55.

you need to consider she will breed tend foals. It is rather like having

:20:56.:21:01.

a football team. If you want a striker from Barcelona, you will try

:21:02.:21:05.

and get him, no matter how good your strikers. For racing on the flat,

:21:06.:21:13.

you need to have a good horse. 4 million guineas, ?4.2 million, the

:21:14.:21:18.

second most expensive ever in Europe. Frankel was the decisive

:21:19.:21:24.

factor. Still the world's top`rated racehorse, no breeding. He has

:21:25.:21:32.

earned over ?50 million at start, five times more than he won on the

:21:33.:21:38.

track. `` at stud. He is a huge draw. Incredibly sought`after. He

:21:39.:21:44.

has not diminished in the public eye. The interest is overwhelming.

:21:45.:21:53.

That is the same in the bloodstock world. We cannot wait for his

:21:54.:22:00.

foals. The bloodstock market is buoyant. Racegoers will need to wait

:22:01.:22:05.

until 2016 for the next generation of Frankels to prove their worth. It

:22:06.:22:12.

is a lot of money. A reminder now of today's top story: the Government

:22:13.:22:15.

will confirm tomorrow that it is scrapping plans to impose a toll on

:22:16.:22:18.

the A14 in Cambridgeshire. The about`turn follows weeks of

campaigning by MPs and business groups. The MPs from Suffolk played

:22:22.:22:26.

a very big part in the campaign. Let's go to Westminster now, and our

political correspondent Andrew Sinclair.

:22:30.:22:33.

Tomorrow morning at 10am, Danny Alexander, the Chief Secretary to

:22:34.:22:38.

the Treasury, will give a speech just over there were he will unveil

:22:39.:22:44.

what is grandly being called the fourth national infrastructure plan.

:22:45.:22:48.

In that, he will confirm that the toll road is no more. Critics will

:22:49.:22:52.

say this is a U`turn, the government will say it was only plans, out for

:22:53.:22:56.

consultation, and they have listen to concerns. The government has

:22:57.:23:04.

always believed that if you make it easier for people to get around, it

:23:05.:23:08.

will boost the economy. Several years ago, the Chancellor identified

:23:09.:23:13.

the A14 as one of the country's main arteries, and pushed for it to be

:23:14.:23:19.

improved as quickly as possible. This road has been delayed too long

:23:20.:23:23.

in the past. I am determined it goes ahead. At first it was only the

:23:24.:23:27.

local Liberal Democrats who were opposed to the idea. But the line

:23:28.:23:32.

from the government was clear. Charging motorists was the only way

:23:33.:23:36.

to afford it. S I cannot be more plain. When you live in difficult

:23:37.:23:41.

economic circumstances, you want roads to be built. Singling out the

:23:42.:23:52.

A14 seems arbitrary and unfair. It was the involvement of MPs from

:23:53.:23:55.

Suffolk which changed the dynamic. They called for debates and they

:23:56.:23:59.

lobbied the Prime Minister. The chancellor visited the region.

:24:00.:24:04.

Wherever he went he was at about the A14. Suddenly, it became clear that

:24:05.:24:08.

the government was having to rethink. I hear loud and clear there

:24:09.:24:11.

are a lot of people worried about the tolls. I will take that very

:24:12.:24:17.

seriously. A lot of people will be pleased that the plans have been

:24:18.:24:21.

dropped. The question now, what goes on in its place? That is a very good

:24:22.:24:26.

question. What will be in the place? We will get the details. You

:24:27.:24:32.

should always look at the small print. In the last 30 minutes I have

:24:33.:24:37.

started to get some idea of what will be announced. It looks as if

:24:38.:24:40.

the plans will stay exactly the same, the Chancellor has just found

:24:41.:24:43.

some extra money from somewhere to pay for building the new road

:24:44.:24:51.

without any toll. The other thing the government will stress his plans

:24:52.:24:54.

are still on schedule. They want building to start in 2016. Do we

:24:55.:25:02.

know why? I understand the decision was taken by the Prime Minister. It

:25:03.:25:06.

seems that he made the decision after he was told that there would

:25:07.:25:12.

be no free alternative to motorists who did not want to pay to use the

:25:13.:25:19.

toll. They felt he had not been properly briefed. He was under the

:25:20.:25:22.

impression there was a choice. They said they were up for having the

:25:23.:25:28.

toll but you need a choice. The Prime Minister agreed with them. Now

the weather. You will be glad to know the sunshine is going to make

:25:34.:25:36.

an appearance tomorrow. Today we have a lot of cloud. That is how it

:25:37.:25:39.

will remain through this evening and for much of the night. That should

:25:40.:25:44.

mean we will be free of frost. We should mostly stayed dry, but there

:25:45.:25:48.

is a weather front arriving later on which could produce rain. If there

:25:49.:25:53.

are any gaps, perhaps around the wash, on the whole, it will be

:25:54.:26:01.

3`4dC. We start tomorrow with this weather front approaching. That will

:26:02.:26:07.

mean a cloudy start. Sunshine is expected to come out mid to late

:26:08.:26:13.

morning. There is not a great deal of rain. Like and patchy rain

:26:14.:26:17.

clearing quickly to the south`east and then we will start to see that

:26:18.:26:20.

sunshine. It will not be particularly warm, seven degrees

:26:21.:26:25.

will be the highest. With the sunshine, it that will make a

:26:26.:26:28.

difference to how the weather feels. The light wind will help things

along. It remains try and find. With clear skies, a much colder night

:26:34.:26:38.

follows. Looking ahead, the next weather front is on its way on

:26:39.:26:42.

Thursday. This is a cold front. It will not bring rain, but it will be

:26:43.:26:47.

accompanied by a strong wind. The significance for us in the East is a

:26:48.:26:52.

particularly strong wind across the Norfolk coast with some strong gusts

:26:53.:26:57.

into the evening time. That could coincide with high tides, producing

:26:58.:27:02.

problems. Then we have this cold air flooding southwards. A much colder

day is expected on Friday. I'll be is not far away. It should push back

by the weekend. `` the mild a. A very short lived cold snap. It is

back to the bright start on Thursday, but it will turn cloudy.

:27:20.:27:23.

There will be some rain on that front but the strength of the wind

:27:24.:27:26.

is the concern. It will be windy across the region. Break but called

Friday night. It is feeling like winter. Goodbye.
