:07:42. > :07:44.all the way across the airfield. She's got to come right

:07:45. > :07:47.into position, because all the stairs coming off here will be

:07:48. > :07:52.there ready to meet her. So she has got to get there

:08:32. > :08:33.looking photos from our weather Watchers, although you can

:08:34. > :08:36.see a few holes trying to break through that cloud.

:08:37. > :08:38.As we head through the afternoon, hopefully a few more

:08:39. > :08:41.of those holes appearing, but in general many of us fairly

:08:42. > :08:48.cloudy, especially the further west you are and a little bit of patchy

:08:49. > :08:51.rain and drizzle where the cloud is as well.

:08:52. > :08:53.But improving for most of us a little bit I think

:08:54. > :08:55.through the course of the afternoon, and temperatures around

:08:56. > :09:00.Now as we head into tonight and that is when those skies

:09:01. > :09:02.finally clear and that means a cold one.

:09:03. > :09:04.Widespread hard frost on the way for tonight,

:09:05. > :09:06.maybe a few mist and freezing fog patches as well.

:09:07. > :09:09.These are typical temperatures but we could locally see as much

:09:10. > :09:11.as -6 or minus eight degrees being in the cold spots.

:09:12. > :09:13.So very cold start to Thursday morning.

:09:14. > :09:16.Any mist and freezing fog patches should left unclear we should

:09:17. > :09:19.Some sparkling blue skies overhead, but despite that sunshine it

:09:20. > :09:22.will feel chilly with highs of just three or 4 degrees.

:09:23. > :09:25.A foggy start to Friday, outbreaks of rain into the afternoon

:09:26. > :09:27.and then milder but pretty cloudy come the weekend.

:09:28. > :09:30.We do hope you have a good afternoon, but we hope you will join

:09:45. > :09:47.the deadly terrorist attack and should British tourists

:09:48. > :10:02.have been warned about the risks? We're looking for someone
