:00:09. > :00:13.Good evening, I'm Katherine Nash. First tonight, weather warnings have
:00:14. > :00:16.been issued for gale force winds and heavy downpours. Ten millimetres of
:00:17. > :00:21.rain is expected to fall overnight on already saturated ground. And
:00:22. > :00:24.wind speeds could reach up to 70 miles per hour. Earlier this
:00:25. > :00:27.evening, rail passengers on Greater Anglia were warned of disruption and
:00:28. > :00:32.in Suffolk the Orwell Bridge has just closed. In a moment, we'll have
:00:33. > :00:35.the latest on the travel situation. But first, this report from John
:00:36. > :00:39.Cranston. Battling home through the rain on
:00:40. > :00:41.the A12 in Essex this evening as the storm approached. Both Queen
:00:42. > :00:47.Elizabeth Bridge over the Thames and the Orwell Bridge over Ipswich have
:00:48. > :00:52.closed as wind speeds increase. On the trains, Greater Anglia urged
:00:53. > :00:54.people to travel early. Just getting there early, first come
:00:55. > :00:59.first serve. I was meant to be going to London
:01:00. > :01:01.but I haven't gone because of the weather just in case I couldn't get
:01:02. > :01:05.back. Commuters faced lengthy delays after
:01:06. > :01:08.a man was hit by a train. In Hertfordshire, people living in
:01:09. > :01:11.Puckeridge try to dry out their homes after the last bout of
:01:12. > :01:15.flooding, hoping the latest one won't bring more. In Luton, a
:01:16. > :01:18.desperate attempt to stop the pitch getting waterlogged in the hope that
:01:19. > :01:20.tomorrow's football match can go ahead.
:01:21. > :01:24.We've had a couple of postponements through waterlogged pitches and we
:01:25. > :01:29.just want to play football so we resorted to bringing in this cover.
:01:30. > :01:33.The River Chelmer in Essex was in spate today. It seems the immediate
:01:34. > :01:38.threat is not just more water but the ferocity of those winds.
:01:39. > :01:46.Dawn Gerber is in our newsroom now. What's the latest on the trains?
:01:47. > :01:52.There hasn't been as much disruption as originally thought as many
:01:53. > :01:56.passengers took the advice and travelled home early. There will be
:01:57. > :01:59.a reduced service across parts of the network tomorrow because of the
:02:00. > :02:04.high winds. Commuters should check with the real And what about our
:02:05. > :02:14.roads and airports? Operators before travelling.
:02:15. > :02:24.The police are warning people not to travel unless they have two. There
:02:25. > :02:28.are delays on the A120. Luton airport is warning of disruption and
:02:29. > :02:34.a handful of flights have been cancelled at Stansted Airport. The
:02:35. > :02:39.worst of the weather is expected from midnight tonight to 4am. The
:02:40. > :02:42.best thing is to listen to your local BBC Radio station for more
:02:43. > :02:44.information. Serial killer Joanna Dennehy
:02:45. > :02:47.appeared at Cambridge Crown Court today for the beginning of her
:02:48. > :02:51.sentencing hearing. In the dock alongside her were the three men who
:02:52. > :02:54.helped her. At one point Dennehy told the court she was not sorry for
:02:55. > :02:58.having killed three men. This was the first time Joanna
:02:59. > :03:01.Dennehy had been seen in court since she pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey
:03:02. > :03:06.last November to the three murders in Peterborough and two attempted
:03:07. > :03:08.murders in Hereford. Brought to Cambridge to record the sentencing
:03:09. > :03:11.hearing, the serial killer's barrister said his client's
:03:12. > :03:17.offending was at the high`end of the criminal scale. The court was told
:03:18. > :03:20.she accepted she acted in a volatile way from time to time and that she
:03:21. > :03:27.acknowledged that she manipulated men around her. Her barrister said
:03:28. > :03:31.it was her case that she was not in sexual relationships with the men.
:03:32. > :03:34.She stabbed to death her friend Lukasz Slaboszewski, housemate John
:03:35. > :03:38.Chapman, and landlord Kevin Lee, who she made where a black dress shortly
:03:39. > :03:44.before he died. And then unexpectedly, Joanna spoke about
:03:45. > :03:48.victim Kevin Lee. In a raised voice she said there was no sexual
:03:49. > :03:52.interference. "It is hearsay, I was quick to assault him in a dress, I
:03:53. > :03:58.did put him in a dress, it was humiliation, pure and simple. There
:03:59. > :04:01.was nothing sexual about it." Then, just as she was leaving the court in
:04:02. > :04:05.handcuffs, there was a second outburst. In the presence of her
:04:06. > :04:09.victim's relatives she said, I want to make everyone to know I'm sorry
:04:10. > :04:12.for the attempted murders but I'm not sorry for the murders.
:04:13. > :04:21.Sentencing will be later this month at the Old Bailey.
:04:22. > :04:24.An inquest jury has returned a verdict of accidental death on four
:04:25. > :04:27.men who were killed when a steel cage they were working inside
:04:28. > :04:30.collapsed on top of them. Two brothers from Suffolk Daniel and Tom
:04:31. > :04:40.Hazelton, Peter Johnson and Adam Taylor died at Claxton Engineering
:04:41. > :04:44.in Great Yarmouth three years ago. This is the steel cage which
:04:45. > :04:49.collapsed killing four men in January 2011. It was going to
:04:50. > :04:59.reinforce a concrete base for pressure testing at Claxton
:05:00. > :05:03.engineering in Great Yarmouth. Daniel and his younger brother Tom
:05:04. > :05:10.died in the accident with Peter Johnson and Adam Taylor. The men had
:05:11. > :05:19.been sub contracted from another firm. They died at the scene from
:05:20. > :05:24.traumatic asphyxia. A solicitor read out a statement on behalf of the
:05:25. > :05:27.family. We will never be able to come to terms with our devastating
:05:28. > :05:31.loss. Four men went to work that day and
:05:32. > :05:36.never came home. The evidence clearly showed that the men were
:05:37. > :05:41.conscientious and skilled workers and no concerns were raised about
:05:42. > :05:53.the work they were doing. The employer is still going but has
:05:54. > :05:58.struggled to find work. The Health and Safety Executive will
:05:59. > :06:03.now review the evidence in light of the inquest. They will decide
:06:04. > :06:09.whether criminal proceedings are appropriate and will announce its
:06:10. > :06:13.decision in due course. The judge extended his sympathy to
:06:14. > :06:22.the families of the four men. They met such an tragic and untimely
:06:23. > :06:26.death, she said. In Football, two of our teams have
:06:27. > :06:29.been in action in League One tonight. Peterborough hosted
:06:30. > :06:32.Walsall. They drew 0`0. And it was also a goalless match for Colchester
:06:33. > :06:34.against Swindon. Well, that's all from me. Time to look at the weather
:06:35. > :06:50.now with Dan. The Met office have and amber
:06:51. > :06:56.warning out. Some trees could be downed due to the dampness of the
:06:57. > :07:04.ground. Blustery showers coming in from the south`west. Temperatures
:07:05. > :07:08.are fairly mild. Saturday will be quite windy with lots of showers
:07:09. > :07:15.piling on from the south`west. There will be dry intervals but it will be
:07:16. > :07:23.quite a windy day. It will ease a little bit as we head through the
:07:24. > :07:25.day. The showers tends to fade away through the course of the evening
:07:26. > :07:33.leaving a dry night. Sunday is much and bright after a chilly night. I
:07:34. > :07:36.will leave you with the weekend summary for London. Let's go to the
:07:37. > :07:45.weather centre to get the national forecast.
:07:46. > :07:48.Our love hate relationship with the weather has become unbalanced this
:07:49. > :07:53.winter, I suspect there is not a lot of love left. Today's storm has not
:07:54. > :08:00.helped. It gave us 20 to 30 millimetres of rain. Snow in the
:08:01. > :08:03.past few hours at lower levels in eastern Scotland. That should turn
:08:04. > :08:06.to rain again but the blizzards in the Scottish mountains will
:08:07. > :08:07.continue. This evening, it has
