Hello, welcome to Friday's Look North. | :00:02. | :00:05. | |
Tonight, the row over the Government's welfare reforms. The | :00:05. | :00:08. | |
man from Chesterfield found to be fit to work despite having to be | :00:08. | :00:15. | |
offered emergency treatment during his assessment. | :00:15. | :00:22. | |
I cannot stand for very long, I cannot walk very far, I am in agony. | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
Also tonight, 12 arrests in Yorkshire in a series of Home Office | :00:26. | :00:34. | |
raids to find illegal workers. And, the ashes are only halfway | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
through, this call holidays have barely begun, but here we are, the | :00:37. | :00:43. | |
start of the football season. It has been another warm day today, we | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
reached 27 degrees. It is colder but still pleasant over | :00:48. | :00:58. | |
:00:58. | :01:00. | ||
the weekend. I will have the full First tonight, a man from | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
Chesterfield has spoken to Look North about being told he must | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
return to work despite being offered an ambulance after being taken ill | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
during his disability assessment. People across the country are having | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
their health-related unemployment benefits reassessed by a company | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
called Atos health care as part of welfare changes brought in by the | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
Government. In Yorkshire, around 80,000 people have been assessed. | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
30% of them have been found fit to go to work straightaway. A further | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
39% are expected to go back to work in the future. And 32% of people | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
were found to be entitled to long-term financial support due to a | :01:33. | :01:38. | |
health condition. One of those who was reassessed and found fit to work | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
was John Flanagan. He's had a brain haemorrhage and multiple heart | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
attacks and also has a collapsed spine. He was actually taken ill | :01:46. | :01:56. | |
:01:56. | :02:00. | ||
Just reliving the experience is too much. John's assessment left him on | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
the verge of collapse. Something that was all too clear to the doctor | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
carrying it out. He said, the only thing I can do is ringed by 99. | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
took one look and said, I think we will finish this assessment here, | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
because you need to go. For the couple, it was traumatic, that they | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
were sure they could only be one outcome. We received a letter, and | :02:24. | :02:32. | |
said he had not got the incapacity. He did not think his life is worth | :02:32. | :02:40. | |
living. That means he said he was fit to work? Yes. It is rubbish. | :02:40. | :02:49. | |
With my back, I cannot stand for very long, I cannot walk very far, I | :02:49. | :02:59. | |
:02:59. | :02:59. | ||
am in pain, I am in agony. I am not a shirker. I have worked all my | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
life. I have worked hard all my life. It is cases like this that | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
have made the welfare changes so controversial. Incapacity benefit | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
are being replaced by the Employment Support Allowance. Protesters have | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
claimed disabled people were. To work and that many will pay with | :03:18. | :03:28. | |
:03:28. | :03:30. | ||
their lives. If I went back to work, they would find me down there. | :03:30. | :03:40. | |
:03:40. | :03:59. | ||
experience. He would not let us explain the conditions that I am | :03:59. | :04:06. | |
having. All he could say was yes or no. His GP has signed him off for | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
now. But his next step is a tribunal. An experience choice says | :04:12. | :04:21. | |
could finish him off. He said, I cannot face those people. To have to | :04:21. | :04:28. | |
beg, because I am alive. Now let's talk to the Conservative | :04:28. | :04:35. | |
MP for the Calder Valley, Craig Whittaker. Most people would say, if | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
you are not entitled, there is no problem, but when you see something | :04:39. | :04:46. | |
like that, the government comes over as callous. Unfortunately, that | :04:46. | :04:56. | |
:04:56. | :04:56. | ||
peace was biased and one-sided. We do not know what the decision, how | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
it was taken, what it was. One person that can find out is his MP, | :05:01. | :05:07. | |
so I would suggest he contacts his MP to see with the assessment is | :05:07. | :05:13. | |
fair. But there is a fact, 40% of Atos decisions are overturned. | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
seems to suggest that maybe the system is not working. It is 40% of | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
those who appeal. I can give you an example of my constituency, I have | :05:24. | :05:33. | |
had three dozen cases that we have stood for, and challenged Atos. It | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
is not very often that they get it wrong, if I am being honest. They do | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
get it wrong, I am not saying they have not got it wrong in this case, | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
but in the majority, the assessment they do, in my experience, are | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
correct. Is it purely about getting money? Are you so broke that you | :05:56. | :06:05. | |
have to resort to this tactic? Not at all. Lots of people say to me, | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
look, we are on incapacity benefit, we want to work, we cannot work | :06:11. | :06:20. | |
full-time, but the benefit is an inhibitor. When you are working, it | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
builds self-esteem, it gives you confidence, it gives you more | :06:23. | :06:32. | |
freedom. That is why the government are going down this line. | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
12 people have been arrested in a series of raids across Yorkshire, | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
aimed at illegal workers and businesses employing staff who are | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
living in the UK without permission. Premises in Leeds, Bradford, | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
Wakefield and Sheffield were targeted in the Home Office | :06:43. | :06:53. | |
:06:53. | :06:56. | ||
Early evening in Sheffield centre, and a curry house is about to | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
receive a surprise visit from the Home Office. This is one of a series | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
of raids taking place across the country as part of a national day of | :07:04. | :07:10. | |
action targeting suspected illegal workers. We have secured the | :07:10. | :07:15. | |
premises, we are executing the warrant. We have looked around to | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
see if any people have hidden away, which happens quite regularly. We | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
are in the process of going through the people, looking at their IDE. It | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
has been more than half an hour since officers entered the | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
restaurant. They have been carrying out detailed checks, looking at | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
passport records and using mobile fingerprint scanners to see if | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
everyone working inside is legally allowed to be here. Looks like they | :07:40. | :07:47. | |
could be some arrests. This operation is the result of months of | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
intelligence gathering and was one of more than a dozen raids taking | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
place across Yorkshire over 24 hours. Five arrests were made here, | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
three of those on suspicion of living and working in the UK | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
illegally. Two others on suspicion of knowingly implying illegal | :08:02. | :08:10. | |
workers. They are very often paying low wages to people, they are also | :08:10. | :08:16. | |
not paying tax, national insurance, things that legitimate companies | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
would pay. So they have a better chance of survival when other people | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
who are doing things legitimately are struggling, and they cost the | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
taxpayer a lot of money. 140 arrests were made across the UK yesterday, | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
12 of them in Yorkshire. It is not yet known how will you people will | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
be charged, but those who are will face tough penalties or even be | :08:40. | :08:46. | |
deported. Later on Look North. A warning that | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
could save lives. Experts say stroke victims in Sheffield are waiting too | :08:49. | :08:57. | |
long before calling for help. In other news, hundreds of former | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
miners have been told they'll lose their concessionary fuel allowances | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
as part of changes to their pensions. The National Union of | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
Mineworkers is fighting the changes brought in after the company that | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
runs Kellingley Colliery near Pontefract, UK Coal, underwent a | :09:08. | :09:14. | |
restructuring. Pensioners had been entitled to a cash payment or up to | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
four tonnes of coal under the old agreement. | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
A West Yorkshire mother who says her four-year-old daughter would have | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
died without a blood transfusion is appealing for more people to | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
register as donors. Candice Flynn's daughter Lucy, who's registered | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
blind, needed multiple transfusions after she was diagnosed with a rare | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
form of cancer. Candice hopes the Summer Superhero Road Show in Leeds | :09:36. | :09:46. | |
:09:46. | :09:47. | ||
city centre will encourage more I would like to be able to say to | :09:47. | :09:53. | |
people, can you put your arm out, put your needle in, give some blood | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
and help little ones like Lucy? If she did not have the blood, she | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
would not be here now. An investigation's under way after a | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
plane was forced to make an emergency landing at Leeds Bradford | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
Airport this morning. The Jet2 flight had to turn back shortly | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
after taking off for Amsterdam. Jet2 says the aircraft experienced a | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
technical issue. The plane landed safely and all passengers were flown | :10:12. | :10:17. | |
out on an alternative aircraft. Investigations are under way into | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
the cause of a large mill fire in Slaithwaite in West Yorkshire. It | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
started at around 8:30pm last night, and at one stage 50 fire-fighters | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
were at the derelict building. The fire is now out, and no-one was | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
hurt. Experts say they are concerned that | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
patients in Sheffield are waiting too long to call for help when | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
having a stroke. Every minute, around two million brain cells are | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
lost, and any delay in treatment can lead to life-changing injury. | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
Figures suggest that many more people in Sheffield could be | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
considered for specialist clot-busting drugs if only they | :10:47. | :10:57. | |
:10:57. | :11:01. | ||
We are just going to take your blood pressure. Stuart Dodson is making a | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
good recovery after suffering a stroke on Easter Sunday. His wife | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
called an ambulance after recognising the warning signs, and | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
within half an hour, he was receiving life-saving treatment. By | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
acting quickly, he limited the damage to his brain. It could have | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
been a lot worse. I could be in a wheelchair, my wife taking me to the | :11:23. | :11:30. | |
toilet, bringing me back from the toilet, and looking after me. | :11:30. | :11:36. | |
hold of my hand and pull back. has now retrained most of his | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
function, but not everyone takes the right action. In Sheffield, experts | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
are concerned that a particular problem with people not acting | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
quickly enough exist. The number of people in Sheffield who have a | :11:48. | :11:54. | |
stroke is in line with the national average. 935 patients were admitted | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
to hospital in the last 12 months. 150 might normally qualify for a | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
treatment called thrombolysis, the clotbusting drugs that could make | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
the difference between long-term disability or death. But last year, | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
only 60 patients in Sheffield received it. That is because there | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
is a cut-off time of four and a half hours for the safe use of the drugs. | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
If people do not get to hospital in time, they cannot have it. People in | :12:23. | :12:29. | |
Sheffield are stoic, they think things will get better, and by | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
soldiering on and being stoic, they are preventing themselves from | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
getting life changing treatment. When a stroke strikes, it spreads | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
like a fire in the brain. warning signs include whether the | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
person's face has fallen on one side, and they still smile, can they | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
raised both arms and keep them there, and is their speech slurred? | :12:49. | :12:58. | |
It is time to call 909. For Stuart, his prompt action should mean a good | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
recovery. But there are others who are not so lucky. | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
Car dismantlers say hundreds of jobs are at risk across Yorkshire because | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
they have been unfairly dragged into the Government's fight against metal | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
thieves. They say new laws will add to their costs, drive away business | :13:12. | :13:22. | |
:13:22. | :13:25. | ||
and destroy years of advances in the Another of the 1.5 million cars | :13:25. | :13:29. | |
scrapped every year in England is dragged into a breakers yard near | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
Leeds. Over 80% of each vehicle will be recycled, and what is left | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
disposed of safely under strict environmental controls. But there is | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
concern that new laws could unwittingly lead to a huge leap in | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
dumped vehicles. The new laws are aimed at destroying the market for | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
the theft of copper cables, usually from the rail network, that that can | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
often have highly dangerous consequences. Everybody agreed that | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
the law had to be tightened up to weed out these cowboy scrap metal | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
dealers who were buying this illegally acquired copper wire. But | :14:05. | :14:12. | |
from October, the law is widened even further for the first time, | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
dismantle as part of the regulations. They have to identify | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
and record every person who wants to sell them a car, and if they | :14:19. | :14:28. | |
purchase that car for cash, that becomes illegal. We are not scrap | :14:28. | :14:34. | |
metal dealers. We purchase cars. We will go to a customer and pay in | :14:34. | :14:41. | |
cash. They will not accept a chat, they need the cash to buy a car or | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
do whatever. With the cash incentives gone, the odds like this | :14:45. | :14:51. | |
fear being bypassed. That threatens jobs. Here, one of over 40 in Leeds | :14:51. | :15:01. | |
:15:01. | :15:02. | ||
alone, this is typical. It is a family business. It will be very | :15:02. | :15:05. | |
sad, because at the end of the day, we will not get the cars that we | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
need, because they will not sell them by check, and the street trader | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
will take them without being the polluted, and scrap them. The Home | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
Office insists that, as part of every vehicle becoming a scrap | :15:19. | :15:25. | |
metal, the jobs are buying scrap metal, and the regulations are | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
applicable. Everybody agrees the thefts must be stopped, but by | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
dragging in this mantle is into the regulations, it is possible that | :15:33. | :15:40. | |
they might be throwing the baby out with the bath water. | :15:40. | :15:45. | |
Coming up, getting behind the wheel of some magnificent machines. | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
Classic cars take to the track at Croft Circuit for a nostalgic | :15:48. | :15:54. | |
weekend. Now, it's high summer, yesterday | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
temperatures were in the 30s, and England and Australia's cricketers | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
are battling it out for the Ashes on the other side of the Pennines. But | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
believe it or not, the football season actually kicks off in about | :16:04. | :16:14. | |
:16:14. | :16:16. | ||
This is the oldest professional football ground in the world, in | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
what is the oldest professional football league in the world. What | :16:19. | :16:25. | |
could be more fitting in its 125th anniversary season than the big | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
kick-off being between founder members Sheffield United and Notts | :16:29. | :16:35. | |
County? This season is kicking Gough 12 days early. The reason, so that | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
every team can have one extra home match on Saturday. It has been | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
glorious here today, and David Weir is hoping that whatever the weather | :16:43. | :16:51. | |
does, his team will sparkle. The numbers that have come out and | :16:51. | :16:56. | |
have supported us, they have been great, and we want to continue that, | :16:56. | :17:02. | |
we want to give them a team that is successful, something they can look | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
forward to watching on a Saturday afternoon. | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
We might be 12 days early, but there are at least two teams who cannot | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
wait, what and Bradford came up last season, and they are raring to go. | :17:17. | :17:24. | |
-- rather rum and Bradford. It is too late to say that times are | :17:24. | :17:34. | |
changing. They already have done. After winning automatic promotion, | :17:34. | :17:39. | |
Rotherham fans have been yearning for the next season to start. The | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
likes of Coventry City and Preston North End had better be ready to | :17:42. | :17:52. | |
:17:52. | :17:53. | ||
face the modern-day millers. We know the size of the task, if we into | :17:53. | :17:58. | |
mid-table, that would be a realistic objective. The ambition is to break | :17:58. | :18:03. | |
into the top group. If we can do that, if we can surprise HQ, there | :18:03. | :18:11. | |
will be a play-off race. The engines are stillborn on Bradford City's | :18:11. | :18:17. | |
open top bus. They earned the right to play in league one in a Wembley | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
play-off final against Northampton. After a season of why spend | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
humiliating Premier League teams on their run to the league cup final, | :18:25. | :18:30. | |
we should not be too surprised that the confidence is that they will | :18:30. | :18:35. | |
have much of what is required to play at the higher level. When I | :18:35. | :18:41. | |
bump into supporters, they say, really have a go. We will see where | :18:41. | :18:50. | |
that takes us. Our job is to get the absolute maximum out of ourselves. | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
And to maximise the potential we have in the squad. Where that will | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
take us, I could not tell you. will have the answer in 46 matches | :18:58. | :19:08. | |
:19:08. | :19:15. | ||
With me is a lifelong Sheffield United fan. How weird is it, being | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
here on August the 2nd? It is crazy, I was reading through | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
Twitter, I read a tweet from somebody that said they could not | :19:23. | :19:28. | |
believe the football season was finally back, but I cannot believe | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
it feels like a matter of weeks. short time since we were watching | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
the play-offs, it is incredible. time is just long enough for the | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
disappointment to soak away a bit, but only just. Football fans are the | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
only people on the planet who are capable of being optimists and | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
pessimists at the same time. What your feelings, coming in here | :19:50. | :19:55. | |
tonight, the first game, new season? I was thinking about this | :19:55. | :20:01. | |
today. Every journey of misery starts with a single step. In that | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
respect, we need to be here! The expectoration, yet again, is | :20:05. | :20:14. | |
incredible. I am the same as every fan, I am never surprised by | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
disappointment, but constantly hoping it will not happen again. | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
is a surprise how many big names are in this league. How difficult will | :20:20. | :20:28. | |
it be? For a long while, we were in the Championship, people say it was | :20:28. | :20:34. | |
a great vision, but this league seems to be heading the same way. | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
There are some huge teams in there. It will be harder this year than it | :20:39. | :20:44. | |
should have been last year. Wolverhampton will be a threat, a | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
lot of other big teams, but everybody thinks they have got a | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
chance. Yeovil Town are the perfect example from last year. You ought to | :20:51. | :20:58. | |
be a pundit! Kick-off at about 8pm, about an hour away. The new season | :20:58. | :21:08. | |
:21:08. | :21:09. | ||
gets under way on August the 2nd. We will have the result in our late | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
news at 10:25pm. Good luck to Sheffield United and all of our | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
sides in the respectively. And in cricket, top-of-the-table | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
Yorkshire are taking on Warwickshire in the County Championship at | :21:19. | :21:28. | |
Headingley. It looks to have been a hard day. Gary Ballance trapped | :21:28. | :21:36. | |
though BW. Worth going along to Headingley tomorrow. | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
In Super League, the Leeds Rhinos scored their third straight win last | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
night. The Rhinos beat London Broncos 30-18. This brilliant try | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
from Ben Jones-Bishop put the Rhinos 12-0 up. Captain Kevin Sinfield was | :21:46. | :21:48. | |
making his 500th professional appearance, and converted all five | :21:49. | :21:58. | |
:21:59. | :21:59. | ||
team. Sheffield's Jessica Ennis-Hill will | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
be out of action for three or four months because of an Achilles | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
injury. She took part in the London Anniversary Games last weekend and | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
was hoping to go to Moscow for the World Championships later this | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
month, but had to pull out. She says it's now time to stop chasing | :22:13. | :22:19. | |
fitness and try to cure the problem. We wish her the best of luck. | :22:19. | :22:27. | |
Now for a bit of World War II nostalgia. '40s fashions, the music | :22:27. | :22:35. | |
of George Formby and Glenn Miller, classic cars and military vehicles. | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
Well, add to that little cocktail the sound of high-octane race cars | :22:40. | :22:48. | |
and you have the Nostalgia Weekend at Croft Circuit in North Yorkshire. | :22:48. | :22:56. | |
Let's put you behind the wheel of a four military race car. Flat out at | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
90 plus down the pit straight. Break, into third, through the | :23:01. | :23:05. | |
chicane, accelerate away. This is motor racing as it used to be in the | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
60s and 70s. Not a sport for the faint-hearted. You would not want to | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
contact anything solid. You would do yourself some injury. There was no | :23:14. | :23:18. | |
carbon fibre, there were no aluminium tubs. Fairly primitive | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
stuff, and some pieces from road cars that you could pick up from | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
your local garage. Some of the classic sport and saloons of | :23:27. | :23:34. | |
yesteryear as well. The Jaguars, and a couple of Lotus Cortina 's. A | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
great weekend for all of the family, just do not spend too long changing | :23:38. | :23:44. | |
your brake shoes. Your daughters are looking bored. They enjoy it, | :23:44. | :23:50. | |
actually. A passion for classic cars, I understand, but when it | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
comes to Michu vehicles, and all of that re-enactment business, I am | :23:53. | :24:03. | |
:24:03. | :24:05. | ||
struggling. -- military vehicles will stop --. We set up a static | :24:05. | :24:12. | |
defence perimeter. Somewhere within Germany, with the Soviet bloc as our | :24:13. | :24:20. | |
enemies. This is an American jeep, built to last ten weeks, but this | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
one is 70 years old, part of the military display. I'll put it with | :24:24. | :24:32. | |
this bunch of slackers. Smarten up, guys! They were totally utilitarian, | :24:32. | :24:40. | |
they could be taken to pieces and mended. This is fairly universal. | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
Add to this, Spitfires, 40s fashions and a tank firing demonstration, and | :24:45. | :24:52. | |
it has the makings of a splendid nest object weekend. | :24:52. | :24:58. | |
-- Nostalgia Weekend. Thank you for the comment about how | :24:58. | :25:07. | |
lovely the presenters are looking I am hoping it calls down this | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
weekend! It has been another warm day today. The farmers have been | :25:12. | :25:19. | |
making the most of the fine weather. The hay bales there. The next one, a | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
beautiful one from sunset last night, the Scarborough spa express | :25:24. | :25:30. | |
crossing the river. It has been a warm day today, we have reached 27 | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
degrees through North Yorkshire. Sunny spells, scattered showers | :25:33. | :25:38. | |
tomorrow, but it feels a bit colder. The temperatures are back to average | :25:38. | :25:44. | |
for the time of year. The south-westerly wind will give us a | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
stream of showers at times, but there will be spelt of sunshine in | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
between. The heavy showers and thunderstorms are these white bands | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
of cloud, bringing a scattering of heavy showers, even occasional | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
thunderstorms. The risk continues through the night, although the | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
showers ease in intensity as we head towards dawn. There will be some | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
clear spells, it will be another mile night. Uncomfortable for | :26:10. | :26:20. | |
:26:20. | :26:37. | ||
morning... Tomorrow, it will be a mild start, there will already be a | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
scattering of showers in places, and we keep that risk through the day, | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
into the afternoon, he showers. To fade from the North. South Yorkshire | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
will pick up a cue showers, but elsewhere, it is mostly dry, with | :26:50. | :26:55. | |
the best of the sunshine. The wind will be gentle. The temperatures are | :26:55. | :27:05. | |
:27:05. | :27:08. | ||
around average for the time of year, mixture of sunny spells, scattered | :27:08. | :27:15. | |
showers. The temperatures are average. On Monday, it will turn | :27:15. | :27:19. | |
more unsettled. We will see a band of rain pushing up from the | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
south-west. It will be heavy at first before it turns Cheri later. | :27:23. | :27:33. | |
:27:33. | :27:34. | ||
But you stay, back to sunny spells, You said, it is like watching beauty | :27:34. | :27:41. |
