Good evening. Gale force winds and torrential rain | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
are forecast to batter parts of the Midlands tonight. 23 flood warnings | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
have been issued for the region, three of them severe. In | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
Gloucestershire, surfers rode the latest Severn bore. But despite | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
today's fun there was a serious message from the Environment Agency. | :00:28. | :00:35. | |
Lindsay Doyle reports. The famous Severn bore attracted a | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
curious, adventurers and the environmentalist. Today, high tide | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
the river was higher than normal. We have come down from North Wales to | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
watch friends surf the Severn bore. They have thoroughly enjoyed it, and | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
it is just a natural phenomenon, isn't it? First it goes slow, and | :00:53. | :01:01. | |
shallow, and then it goes up and deep. First time I've seen it. Yes, | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
quite impressive. An extra surge caused by pressure combined with | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
light wind caused the Bristol Channel to swiftly for the bank. Two | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
minutes ago we were standing by the river bank, but the level has risen | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
so quickly, we had to move inside. Over the next few days, we have two | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
more high tides. We expect the type to night to be very similar levels | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
to the one we have just seen, and the one to morning that would | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
tomorrow morning as well. There is a lot of fresh water as well coming | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
out is a lot of freshwater as welcoming and seven. Today's bore is | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
classed by the moment agency as a 4`star tomorrow. Tomorrow, it is | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
expected another one will reach five star level, meaning flood warnings | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
remain firmly in place. A 22`year`old man from Hanbury | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
appeared at Worcester Magistrates' Court this morning charged with | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
murder, in connection with the death of a 43`year`old woman. Police have | :01:57. | :01:59. | |

Harry Help Others has donated ?100,000 to create a new facility at | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
St Mary's Hospice in Birmingham. The Harry Moseley Family Centre means | :02:34. | :02:36. | |

them that facility to be a family, so they're not like in a hospital, | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
and be together, and Tyne is so precious and important. This is not | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
going to just help one family, it is going to help hundreds of families | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
