:00:06. > :00:12.Hello and welcome to a new week on Look North. In the headlines this
:00:12. > :00:15.Monday evening: The clean—up continues. Cars washed away and 16
:00:15. > :00:22.homes under water in East Cleveland's flash floods. We cannot
:00:22. > :00:26.keep letting this happen. Eventually, we will not get any
:00:26. > :00:30.insurance. First day at school. The merged
:00:30. > :00:32.private and state schools which reopened this morning, as an
:00:32. > :00:35.Academy. Remembering Flodden, 500 years after
:00:35. > :00:39.a Scottish king died on an English battlefield.
:00:39. > :00:44.And delighted fans are bowled over as a former pit village wins the
:00:44. > :00:47.coveted cup at Lord's. In other sport though it's been a
:00:47. > :00:48.pretty dismal weekend. Carlisle Manager Greg Abbott is sacked after
:00:48. > :01:10.the Blues' bad start continues. It seems incredible. The first day
:01:10. > :01:13.of heavy rain after the long, hot summer and suddenly East Cleveland
:01:13. > :01:16.was knee—deep in floodwater. Friday's flash floods in Saltburn
:01:16. > :01:23.pushed cars towards the sea as people scrambled to escape. A bridge
:01:23. > :01:27.was washed away in Skinningrove. And in Redcar — where a new flood
:01:27. > :01:41.storage reservoir was completed just last year — 16 homes were flooded.
:01:41. > :01:44.—— 60. Again! As the clean—up continues, we have two reports from
:01:44. > :01:59.the flooding front line. First, here's Stuart Whincup: the
:01:59. > :02:04.destruction led to some dramatic pictures.
:02:04. > :02:07.Swept away. The driver had just got out, and watched helplessly as his
:02:07. > :02:15.car floated down the road. This is Valley Gardens usually there's just
:02:15. > :02:19.a small beck running here. I've never seen anything like it.
:02:19. > :02:24.Cleveland Fire Service received a month's worth of calls — 230 — in
:02:24. > :02:31.just one night. The driver of this van had to be rescued from its roof
:02:31. > :02:35.when he got stuck. I came down to go under the bridge, trying to go
:02:35. > :02:41.backwards, and it just gets Benning, and then within two minutes the
:02:42. > :02:45.water rose another foot and a half, and then the band just started
:02:45. > :02:52.floating further in, and then it just sank, because it covered the
:02:52. > :02:59.whole cab. Now three days after the flash floods the huge clear up
:02:59. > :03:03.operation continues. It is only when you watch here that
:03:03. > :03:11.you walk a bit cheesy extent of the damage caused by 80 hours of
:03:11. > :03:16.flooding on Friday night —— that you see the extent. These are massive
:03:16. > :03:21.holes. They stretch 100 yards along these roles. —— roads. Some
:03:21. > :03:26.businesses were lucky and avoided major damage. But they still don't
:03:26. > :03:34.know how. I have not really seen anything like it before. It was just
:03:34. > :03:38.like a big lake in the end. Seeing the water down here, you have to
:03:38. > :03:41.weather about whether you've got any work left. Bridges were destroyed
:03:41. > :03:44.and countless roads were flooded. For all the damage to properties and
:03:44. > :03:52.disruption, the emergency services said it was just down to luck that
:03:52. > :03:57.nobody was seriously injured. The worst of the damage was here, we're
:03:57. > :04:01.60 homes were flooded and some have been flooded for the third time in
:04:01. > :04:14.the past four years and that despite Northumbrian water spending £300
:04:14. > :04:15.million on nearby flood defences. Our economics reporter has this
:04:15. > :04:19.report. Being flooded out of one's home is
:04:19. > :04:24.surely traumatic enough. But for Steve Joslin his misfortune has been
:04:24. > :04:28.doubled. I am not insured. I only moved six weeks ago. My own fault
:04:28. > :04:32.for not informing them, but when they informed them this morning,
:04:32. > :04:37.they said that if I had told them last week, they would not take me on
:04:37. > :04:40.because they do not take on properties that have been involved
:04:40. > :04:44.in flight. So I have got to sort this out myself. It's my fault. The
:04:44. > :04:47.residents of this small Redcar street say the flood defence
:04:47. > :04:50.measures installed by Northumbrian Water in 2009 are inadequate, hence
:04:50. > :05:01.the damage to their properties on Friday night. Probably about eight
:05:01. > :05:05.o'clock that night, in their —— there was about eight or 12 inches.
:05:05. > :05:08.The defence is in the form of a massive tank. It's buried in this
:05:08. > :05:12.field alongside the affected houses. And it should see excess water drain
:05:12. > :05:20.into it if the sewerage system can't cope. The residents here are not
:05:20. > :05:25.convinced that Northumbrian Water has invested enough money in the
:05:25. > :05:36.flood defences, with pre—tax profits last year of 200 and million —— £212
:05:36. > :05:39.million, do they have point? Invested £300 million in that area
:05:39. > :05:43.and it serves not just that area, but elsewhere as well. We were
:05:43. > :05:46.confident that under normal conditions, that system would have
:05:46. > :05:51.been able to store the water and then return it rain had subsided,
:05:51. > :06:00.but in this instance it was too extreme and it over from the system.
:06:00. > :06:04.Northumbrian Quarters as they will carry out an investigation, with a
:06:04. > :06:07.hoped—for reporting date of six weeks' time.
:06:07. > :06:09.Well, were the floods in East Cleveland the result of a
:06:09. > :06:18.particularly unusual weather event? Paul Mooney is here. How bad was the
:06:18. > :06:25.rainfall that evening? It was especially bad. Some places had over
:06:25. > :06:29.two and have inches over the course of the day. That is an awful lot of
:06:29. > :06:34.rain. You can see it on the radar on Friday, with the bright green
:06:34. > :06:38.colours being the heaviest. You can see that becoming more persistent
:06:38. > :06:44.around that area, so they really did have an exceptionally wet day. The
:06:44. > :06:48.Met Office have records going back over 100 years. In September we
:06:48. > :06:55.would normally expect about 50 seat millimetres, and on Friday alone we
:06:55. > :06:59.had over 44 millimetres. That makes it the wettest September on record.
:06:59. > :07:06.And is this evidence of a changing climate? These events do seem to be
:07:06. > :07:09.becoming more frequent. We remember thunderous Thursday that affected
:07:09. > :07:13.Tyneside last summer, where we had one month of rain and a couple of
:07:13. > :07:18.hours in places, but whether another be attributed to man—made climate
:07:18. > :07:22.change is going to have to be reviewed over a much longer time
:07:22. > :07:28.scale. And how would you advise those planning our flood defences?
:07:28. > :07:31.One thing is for sure, these events, these horrible events affecting
:07:31. > :07:35.homes and businesses in our region year in and year out, the way they
:07:35. > :07:36.are planning and began developing and managing them at present does
:07:36. > :07:48.not seem to be working. Thank you. The Newcastle United football fan
:07:49. > :07:52.who made headlines after being accused of punching a police horse
:07:52. > :07:55.has appeared in court, and denied a charge of violent disorder. Barry
:07:55. > :07:58.Rogerson, who's 45 and from Bedlington, will now appear at
:07:58. > :08:01.Newcastle Crown Court in two weeks' time. He was among 24 football fans
:08:01. > :08:07.charged with violent disorder, after the Magpies lost to Sunderland in
:08:07. > :08:10.the Tyne—Wear derby in April. The controversial new Kings Priory
:08:10. > :08:14.Academy on North Tyneside opened its doors today. The merger between the
:08:14. > :08:18.private King's School in Tynemouth, and the former local authority—run
:08:18. > :08:22.Priory Primary, is the first of its kind in the country. Supporters say
:08:22. > :08:26.it'll bring huge benefits to local schoolchildren. But North Tyneside
:08:26. > :08:30.Council says the new Academy is taking pupils away from other
:08:31. > :08:34.schools in the area. Andrew Hartley reports.
:08:34. > :08:38.Summer's over. For Lucy that means back to school. Lucy's one of 1200
:08:38. > :08:47.children starting life at the King's Priory in Tynemouth. There's a lot
:08:47. > :08:52.of excited and proud parents. It is the first day of a new school. I am
:08:53. > :08:57.really happy. It is making friends and meeting new people. But this
:08:57. > :09:00.school is like no other — a unique merger of a council—run primary and
:09:00. > :09:02.privately funded independent school. Labour—controlled North Tyneside
:09:02. > :09:06.Council opposed the merger, worried about the knock—on effect on other
:09:06. > :09:09.schools. But last month it decided not to pursue a judicial review,
:09:09. > :09:20.ending a year of bitter political wrangling. It's the start of a
:09:20. > :09:23.brand—new chapter here. For the pupils there is a mood of great
:09:23. > :09:26.excitement, and for the parents, a sense of huge relief that all of the
:09:27. > :09:30.uncertainty is over. King's School had seen a big fall in pupil numbers
:09:30. > :09:33.in recent years. Critics claim a failing private school has been
:09:33. > :09:41.bailed out by a Conservative Government to the tune of £5 million
:09:41. > :09:44.of taxpayers' money. It is quite the opposite. This represents a
:09:44. > :09:48.fantastic deal for the taxpayer in reality, and of course, parents have
:09:48. > :09:53.the added advantage of not having to pay fees, so what we're doing is
:09:53. > :09:57.opening up the school the community. We here want to work with the local
:09:57. > :10:01.schools and to help to provide a beacon of education in the local
:10:01. > :10:04.area. But that's not how they see it at other schools nearby. This place
:10:04. > :10:10.says it's already setting high standards. The impact of the
:10:10. > :10:15.amalgamation of the two schools down the road is that we will have extra
:10:15. > :10:17.places here, but that is an opportunity for other parents in
:10:18. > :10:23.North Tyneside to come and see what we're doing, and I think everyone
:10:23. > :10:26.knows that we are doing very, very well. A £10,000 education now
:10:26. > :10:30.available to all.A former private school competing for state pupils.
:10:30. > :10:39.The question is: just how will the local authority react? The ball's in
:10:39. > :10:43.their court. 500 years ago today, King James IV
:10:43. > :10:46.of Scotland and 10,000 of his fellow countrymen were hacked to death at
:10:46. > :10:51.Flodden in north Northumberland by a small English army fighting for
:10:51. > :10:56.Henry the Eighth. The flower of Scottish nobility died at Flodden on
:10:56. > :11:00.September the 9th 1513. Today, the Battle of Flodden was commemorated
:11:00. > :11:10.by people from both sides of the Border. Mark Denten is at Flodden
:11:10. > :11:16.now. Yes, we're just a couple of miles away from the Scottish border.
:11:16. > :11:19.We are near the border. It is perhaps a curious place for people
:11:19. > :11:24.to be gathering this evening for a service. They are gathering because
:11:25. > :11:31.500 years ago today in those fields find me, two nations met in
:11:31. > :11:35.violence, carnage, and blood. And today, those two nations came
:11:35. > :11:49.together again but this time an act of commemoration. A paper's lament
:11:49. > :11:56.for the lives lost on a Northumberland field 500 years ago.
:11:56. > :12:06.The Battle of town—mac was a massive and bloody loss of life. It is
:12:06. > :12:16.thought some of the 15,000 who died here are buried under these fields.
:12:16. > :12:21.It was a huge event. It was the last big battle between the Scottish and
:12:21. > :12:28.English. It is a great milestone in British history. So at 4pm, the time
:12:28. > :12:35.the battles that 500 years ago, a group walked the battlefield,
:12:35. > :12:39.including this man from Seattle. We just found that both of us who have
:12:39. > :12:47.ancestors who fought and died here, so, just could not avoid coming
:12:47. > :12:50.year. We had to be here. In the two and a half hours it took to walk the
:12:50. > :12:55.battlefield and learn some history on the same spot at the same time
:12:55. > :13:06.500 years ago, thousands died. Today, generations on, they were
:13:06. > :13:08.remembered. Well, as you can see, there have introduced Letty from
:13:09. > :13:15.English and Scottish people, remembering those who died ——
:13:15. > :13:21.tributes left here. We can speak now to the director of this group.
:13:21. > :13:24.Inevitably, we see the sole tyre, we see Scottish flags and Scottish
:13:25. > :13:27.people here today, but this is also very important for the north—east
:13:27. > :13:33.because people could be heard, people who fought for those areas as
:13:33. > :13:38.well. Absolutely. The people who set off from Stockton and Penrith and
:13:38. > :13:46.Carlisle all came across two new Castle. Newcastle was a big muster
:13:46. > :13:52.point. They then moved and sweat behind the Scottish forces —— came
:13:52. > :13:55.across Newcastle. And the striking thing is that there are no
:13:55. > :14:04.re—enactments today. It has been a very sombre day. Absolutely. It is
:14:04. > :14:08.for personal reflection. People have been taking time to consider what
:14:08. > :14:12.happened. And we will end with a service that will take place in a
:14:12. > :14:16.few minutes time. Thank you very much. Later today, there is a
:14:16. > :14:21.service, and another service here tomorrow, bringing people together
:14:21. > :14:25.in commemoration of the conflict. Thank you.
:14:25. > :14:32.You're watching Look North. Still to come: Dawn has the latest from
:14:32. > :14:35.Carlisle United after the sacking of Greg Abbott. Plus, the cricket team
:14:35. > :14:43.from a tiny village in Cumbria who've triumphed at Lord's by
:14:43. > :14:46.winning the national Village Cup. The farming minister has criticised
:14:46. > :14:48.Cumbria County Council for selling its publicly—owned farms. The
:14:48. > :14:52.criticism comes as young farmers say European Union subsidies mean older
:14:52. > :14:55.farmers are hanging on to land in retirement, making it difficult for
:14:55. > :14:58.younger people to find a foothold in the industry. Chris Jackson has been
:14:58. > :15:05.investigating for tonight's Inside Out.
:15:05. > :15:09.Richard is the kind of person the farming industry needs. He is
:15:09. > :15:13.bright, young, and ambitious. But he's turning his back on dairy
:15:13. > :15:19.farming in Cumbria and heading to pastures new. So, what will you do
:15:19. > :15:24.in New Zealand? Will be working on it and sheep farm on the South
:15:24. > :15:28.Island. I'm very excited. Richard believes he's been forced to move,
:15:28. > :15:32.as an EU subsidy means that farmers are not paid for how much food they
:15:32. > :15:35.produce, but how much land they own. And that does not encourage them to
:15:35. > :15:42.retire, freeing up land for people like him. There's so much subsidy
:15:42. > :15:50.going into agriculture that farmers can stay on the land without
:15:50. > :15:54.actually having to work. I mean, I call a Single Farm Pension. It would
:15:54. > :16:02.be farming into old age where you don't have to do any work. They're
:16:02. > :16:08.not forced to rent out that land to younger people like myself and make
:16:08. > :16:12.it profitable. The suspicions of everyone are confirmed in this
:16:12. > :16:17.report. It states that the subsidy has had a stifling effect on the
:16:17. > :16:21.market for tenancies. But these are not the only farming opportunities
:16:21. > :16:25.that have been disappearing. We have discovered that councils who owned
:16:25. > :16:28.farms have been selling them off to raise funds. Cumbria used to own 14,
:16:28. > :16:33.and it is planning on selling six of them.
:16:33. > :16:36.The farming minister says he is frustrated by the use subsidy but in
:16:36. > :16:43.the meantime, councils should not be selling off their farms. Some
:16:43. > :16:49.councils are showing how it can be done. Some are not. I think they are
:16:49. > :16:52.wrong. A spokesman for the County Council says that owning farms was
:16:52. > :16:57.not part of the council's core business and last year enough money
:16:57. > :17:01.was raised from the sale to build a new primary school. Richard, the
:17:01. > :17:05.frustrations for waiting —— of waiting for older farmers to move on
:17:05. > :17:09.have simply become too much. He is now in New Zealand starting his new
:17:09. > :17:14.life, and young farmers say that others will follow.
:17:14. > :17:18.Also on Inside Out tonight: how waste plastic in the sea is killing
:17:18. > :17:21.our sea birds and how Roker Park inspired a Cumbrian man to make a
:17:21. > :17:25.career taking photos of football fans across the country.
:17:25. > :17:28.Now, in a moment, Dawn joins me for "Team Talk". But first a story about
:17:28. > :17:31.a sporting dream come true. Yesterday, Cleator Cricket Club from
:17:31. > :17:35.west Cumbria triumphed in the National Village Cup Final in an
:17:35. > :17:37.extraordinary match at Lord's. In a nerve—racking run chase, Cleator
:17:37. > :17:39.overcame Rockhampton from Gloucestershire — their
:17:39. > :17:45.nerve—tingling, one—wicket win coming after they looked to have
:17:45. > :17:48.thrown the game away. The victory sparked a pitch invasion and wild
:17:48. > :17:59.celebrations. Mark McAlindon was there.
:17:59. > :18:05.At the end, there was pandemonium. Players joining friends and family
:18:05. > :18:09.for one huge party. Why? Well, moments earlier, the captain had
:18:09. > :18:17.lifted the trophy, fulfilment for a cricketing man. Absolutely
:18:17. > :18:22.unbelievable. The emotions, so many friends and so many good people in
:18:22. > :18:28.the team, and the way the game is gone, and with everything that's
:18:28. > :18:32.happened, as I say, what dreams are made of, to play at Lord's, and now
:18:32. > :18:38.we have come to Lord's, Duffield urging to play, and then had the
:18:38. > :18:43.match and the dream result. Earlier, the team had arrived full of nerves.
:18:43. > :18:51.The toss was one but it was Rockhampton piling up the runs.
:18:51. > :18:56.Cleaton took it back, but faced a daunting chase. We were three down.
:18:57. > :19:04.The opening ball from their side went very well. Our backs were
:19:04. > :19:07.against the wall. Eventually, it was down to the last pair to get a
:19:07. > :19:19.single and get the team over the line. 50 years I've played for
:19:19. > :19:25.Cleaton, and how can you be today? How can you be there? The best day
:19:25. > :19:33.of my life. Seriously. The best day of my life. It was a phenomenal day.
:19:33. > :19:41.It was the best result we could have ever had! It's just been immense!
:19:41. > :19:46.For people of the tiny former mining village, this is an incredible
:19:46. > :19:50.achievement. It means everything. To play today in front of a crowd like
:19:50. > :19:54.that, everyone who supported us was fantastic, it was just a brilliant
:19:54. > :20:00.atmosphere, and to play on that hallowed field, it was just
:20:00. > :20:04.wonderful. I can die a happy man. The party is likely to go on long
:20:04. > :20:09.into the night. What a great story! Cricketing
:20:09. > :20:11.success for Cumbria — and the county's main football team is
:20:11. > :20:17.making the headlines in tonight's "Team Talk".
:20:17. > :20:20.We start tonight with news of the second manager to leave one of our
:20:20. > :20:24.professional football clubs already this season — the first to leave a
:20:24. > :20:26.league club, with the other being Anthony Smith at Gateshead, who're
:20:26. > :20:29.in the Conference. Yes, and it's Greg Abbott, who's
:20:29. > :20:33.parted company with Carlisle. A club statement just after ten o'clock
:20:33. > :20:36.this morning, said the board had met after Saturday's home defeat by Port
:20:36. > :20:39.Vale, and taken the decision after then meeting with Greg, who hadbeen
:20:39. > :20:44.one of the longest—serving managers in English football.
:20:44. > :20:47.He had — look at this — up until a few hours ago, only Arsene Wenger
:20:47. > :20:48.and Exeter's Paul Tisdale had been in their post longer than Greg
:20:49. > :20:50.Abbott. and Exeter's Paul Tisdale had been
:20:50. > :20:54.in their post longer And his departure means Tony Mowbray now
:20:54. > :20:57.moves up to ninth spot, and Alan Pardew sneaks into the top ten for
:20:57. > :21:00.his three years at Newcastle. It was beginning to look inevitable
:21:00. > :21:04.though, wasn't it, given Carlisle's dreadful start to the season? Just
:21:04. > :21:10.two points from their first six games, starting with those thumpings
:21:10. > :21:13.by Orient, Bradford and Coventry. And the board said they were worried
:21:13. > :21:16.about the effect results were having on "the business" — reflected by
:21:16. > :21:25.falling attendances — the gate dipped below 4,000 at the weekend.
:21:25. > :21:29.It was the club and the effect that poor results for having on the club
:21:29. > :21:34.and the attendances and the viability of the club that made us
:21:34. > :21:37.move when we did move and may just talked much more seriously than we
:21:37. > :21:42.did talk. It is a club issue more than anything else. The final straw
:21:42. > :21:46.for the board was that 1—0 home defeat by Port Vale, the goal coming
:21:46. > :21:49.in injury—time — agonisingly for the Blues, who'd missed a great chance
:21:49. > :21:52.themselves, just before Tom Pope scored Vale's winner. That sealed
:21:52. > :21:56.Greg Abbott's fate, but as well as the low point, we must remember the
:21:56. > :21:59.highs, Dawn? Yes, two trips to Wembley, for the Johnstone's Paint
:21:59. > :22:03.Trophy final — the second one, against Brentford, which they won,
:22:03. > :22:06.of course — one of the great days in the club's history. But Greg himself
:22:06. > :22:10.is history now, coach Graham Kavanagh is in temporary charge, but
:22:10. > :22:19.who's in the frame to be the next Carlisle manager? On the one hand,
:22:19. > :22:23.they could do with an experienced manager to steady the ship and on
:22:23. > :22:28.the other hand, they can maybe do with somebody with a bit of it wild
:22:28. > :22:33.fact, Alan Shearer priced at 40 21 with one bookmaker, there are some
:22:33. > :22:37.other names out there as well. Peter Murphy is exceptionally popular as a
:22:37. > :22:41.player, and would he be the job that the colony ticket to get the fans
:22:41. > :22:43.that? —— would he be the one that the club needs to get the fans
:22:43. > :22:47.back? Well it was a pretty dismal weekend
:22:47. > :22:50.in League Two as well, although at least Hartlepool scored their first
:22:51. > :22:54.league goal of the season. Yes, but it was in injury—time, and the game
:22:54. > :22:58.was almost lost. But they might have had one a lot earlier if the
:22:58. > :23:00.goal—line technology that's used in the Premier League had been
:23:00. > :23:04.available here — Christian Burgess with the shot — did it cross the
:23:04. > :23:07.line? Hard to tell, but it wasn't given, and Pools paid the price in
:23:07. > :23:10.the second half. They did. Wycombe brought on
:23:10. > :23:13.19—year—old Max Kretzschmar, who's never scored a League goal in his
:23:13. > :23:16.life. Until now! Hence the celebrations. And having scored one,
:23:16. > :23:19.he did it again! Just when Pools thought they'd turned the corner,
:23:19. > :23:22.after that 5—0 win over Bradford in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy. They
:23:22. > :23:26.did finally score themselves — James Poole with the header — they're
:23:26. > :23:28.second—botton of League Two, and on Saturday they're at home to
:23:28. > :23:32.Accrington, the only team below them. Not much joy, either, for York
:23:32. > :23:35.City, beaten 2—0 at home by Wimbledon. Manager Nigel Worthington
:23:35. > :23:38.called it a "less than average performance" and said "we were
:23:38. > :23:41.sloppy all over the pitch — it's simply not good enough." Not a happy
:23:41. > :23:45.man. By contrast, his predecessor at Bootham Crescent, Gary Mills, made a
:23:45. > :23:49.winning start in his new role as boss of Gateshead, just a few days
:23:49. > :23:52.after stepping into the job at the International stadium. Josh Walker
:23:52. > :23:56.picked up both the goals in a 2—1 win over Hereford — and that lifts
:23:56. > :23:58.them up to 17th in the Conference table — four places above the
:23:58. > :24:02.relegation zone. And not the start the Falcons were
:24:02. > :24:06.hoping for in their first game back in rugby union's Premiership Dawn!
:24:06. > :24:09.No — a win for former Falcons boss Gary Gold and coach Mike Ford on
:24:09. > :24:14.their return to Kingston Park but the weather absolutely appalling and
:24:14. > :24:17.spoiled the game. Mike's son George Ford kicked Bath ahead after just
:24:17. > :24:23.six minutes, but when the Falcons had a chance to draw level Phil
:24:23. > :24:26.Godman pulled his kick wide. That might have made a crucial
:24:26. > :24:29.difference, but even when Ford nailed another penalty Newcastle
:24:29. > :24:32.were only 6—0 behind at the break. The talented young ten put Bath
:24:32. > :24:36.further ahead with about twenty minutes to go. And even though
:24:36. > :24:39.Newcastle defended well and had some good breaks, Bath played the
:24:39. > :24:43.conditions better and when Antony Perenise crashed over from a rolling
:24:43. > :24:47.maul it was game over. The Falcons gave away a penalty try at the end
:24:47. > :24:50.to add insult to injury and while they'll be disappointed not to get
:24:50. > :25:01.anything from the game, they weren't completely outplayed. Plenty to work
:25:01. > :25:03.on. We saw the rain. Is the more pain on the way?
:25:03. > :25:07.completely outplayed. Plenty to work on. We saw the rain. Is the There
:25:07. > :25:12.is. We have had more than our fair share of rain in places today. I
:25:12. > :25:16.think if we look ahead at the coming week I think it is fair to say it is
:25:16. > :25:20.unsettled and very changeable. It will be quite windy at times as
:25:20. > :25:26.well, but they will be some gaps of the Somme Drive, decent weather.
:25:26. > :25:32.Today this rain came in the form of showers that were very localised ——
:25:32. > :25:35.gaps that will be dry. The showers will become less
:25:35. > :25:38.frequent as we had to the evening and through the course of the night,
:25:38. > :25:42.they will gradually become more confined to the east coast. Many
:25:42. > :25:45.places will become more drive. And the West, we will see clearer skies
:25:45. > :25:49.overnight when temperatures could take a bit of a dip and easily go
:25:49. > :25:55.into single figures. They could go as low as six or seven degrees. That
:25:55. > :25:58.went always stays stronger and more fresh along the north—east coast as
:25:59. > :26:04.we head to the night. Tomorrow, this will still be some rain. The rain in
:26:04. > :26:07.the east will become a bit more widespread near the east coast, but
:26:07. > :26:12.elsewhere, it looks like a mostly dry day, and in the West, that is
:26:12. > :26:18.where we will see the best of the brightness, so some sunshine for
:26:18. > :26:24.many. It looks like the bad weather will be confined to areas east of
:26:24. > :26:29.the A19 throughout the day. Income react we could see 17 or 18
:26:29. > :26:32.degrees. That is 64 Fahrenheit. Always a few degrees cooler in the
:26:32. > :26:36.east where you are more exposed to that northerly wind. That is really
:26:36. > :26:42.strong and lasting then that close. It will make it feel bitterly cold.
:26:42. > :26:47.That is the picture for tomorrow. You can see the Northern Railway, at
:26:48. > :26:51.the next band of rain will coming from the West on Wednesday. A little
:26:51. > :26:56.gap under that high pressure for a time, before the next system comes
:26:56. > :27:00.in later in the week. By Friday, we are beginning to brighten up again
:27:00. > :27:03.as the pressure builds, but very up and down through the week
:27:03. > :27:07.weather—wise. If you are out and about, be prepared for centuries. As
:27:08. > :27:15.I said, most of the Rainier that the schools, many places dry, the best
:27:15. > :27:21.afternoon temperatures in the West. Temperatures struggling. On
:27:21. > :27:25.Thursday, it'll start off dry, but eventually being will come the West.
:27:25. > :27:34.Things will brighten up again on Friday. Unsettled, to say the least.
:27:34. > :27:38.The summer has gone. Carroll will be back here at half past six tomorrow.
:27:39. > :27:43.Join her and the rest of us. Have a great night.
