Hello I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's | :00:03. | :00:05. | |
programme: Conserving water - the hosepipe ban | :00:05. | :00:07. | |
is enforced, affecting many households across the south, | :00:07. | :00:10. | |
Coping with bereavement - the teenager raising money for the | :00:10. | :00:20. | |
:00:20. | :00:27. | ||
charity that helped her after she lost her parents. Isolated and | :00:27. | :00:33. | |
lonely. I didn't talk to many people. | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
And heroes below deck - the impact on Southampton families after the | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
sinking of the Titanic. They didn't really stand a chance to get off. | :00:41. | :00:51. | |
:00:51. | :00:54. | ||
They were there and they let others We've been warned it was coming, | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
but for many parts of the South the hosepipe ban is now a reality. | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
Depending on where you live, there's now wide-ranging | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
restrictions on how you can use water. In the Thames Valley, Thames | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
Water and South East Water have a hosepipe ban in force. | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
If you live in Sussex and get your water supply from Southern Water, | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
you'll also face a ban. But Southern Water customers in | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
Hampshire and the Isle of Wight and Portsmouth Water customers don't | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
face the same restrictions. Our reporter Rachael Canter has | :01:24. | :01:31. | |
spent the day Littlehampton, a town on the edge of the bans. | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
This is little Hampton, surrounded by water and probably one of the | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
last places in the country that you would expect a hosepipe ban and it | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
has left many people bemused. -- Little Hampton. This woman can no | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
longer use a hose to water her garden. I think it is a waste of | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
time. They could save more if they mended a quarter of the leaks. It | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
is going to take me a lot more time to keep the garden going. It will | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
be hard work. And doing this is also banned. As an avid car cleaner, | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
it is a disaster for me because cars don't work unless they are | :02:10. | :02:15. | |
clean. And this woman will not be able to fill a paddling pool for | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
her young son, but friends living a mile away do not have the band. | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
Jacob is going to school up the road in September and he will have | :02:24. | :02:30. | |
friends who can use their paddling balls because they do not have the | :02:30. | :02:37. | |
hosepipe ban. It seems mad. We have introduced a ban that we think will | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
give big dividends. It will encourage people to think about how | :02:41. | :02:50. | |
they used water. -- used water. Breaking the ban could lead to a | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
fine of �1,000, so agree with it or not, one thing for sure is this | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
hosepipe is staying firmly shut away. | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
It is not just households affected by the prolonged spell of dry | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
weather. Farmers are also struggling with the drought. | :03:09. | :03:15. | |
The drought is having a big impact on farmers. If we look at how | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
bright the soil is here at this farm, you can see it is almost | :03:19. | :03:28. | |
turning to dust. In this part of the world, rainfall has been below | :03:28. | :03:35. | |
average in 20 of the past 25 months. Problems are stacking up for | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
farmers? The a certainly are. It has not come as a surprise. They | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
really need rain to establish their crops. Sir farmers with livestock | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
and growing arable crops, they are all been affected? Yes. From a | :03:52. | :03:59. | |
livestock point of view, a lack of rain affects the grass, so they | :03:59. | :04:08. | |
need an alternative means the two feet the cattle. Also, with crops | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
which had been planted recently, they need moisture to get them | :04:12. | :04:19. | |
going. They do. The plant needs to be established so that its yield | :04:19. | :04:26. | |
will be up to scratch. Thank you. So what farmers want is a long | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
period of gentle rain. A freight train fire near | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
Winchester is causing big disruption on trains between London | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
and Southampton. The line at Micheldever has been closed. Buses | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
are replacing trains between Basingstoke and Eastleigh and | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
trains between Waterloo and Weymouth are being diverted via | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
Havant. Passengers leaving London are reporting delays of more than | :04:43. | :04:52. | |
three quarters of an hour. 40 firefighters are tackling a | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
blaze at an industrial estate in Weymouth. It started at a property | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
on Grandby Industrial Estate and has spread to two other units. It's | :04:59. | :05:09. | |
:05:09. | :05:13. | ||
not yet known how it started. Ignorance of the law is no defence. | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
That is what a judge told a Southampton woman who admitted | :05:19. | :05:29. | |
illegal loan sharking. Marylou Gonzales charged a higher levels of | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
interest. Entering Southampton Crown Court | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
this morning, Marylou Gonzales is not what you would call your | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
typical loan shark, but earlier this week she pleaded guilty to | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
carrying on a business without a licence, admitting to be illegal | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
money-lending. Today, the judge sentenced the 43-year-old to 150 | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
hours of community service. He told her that ignorance of the law | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
presents you with no defence. However, he did accept she did not | :06:00. | :06:06. | |
know her actions were illegal. There was no evidence whatsoever of | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
any indication of any violence, intimidation or any criminal | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
activity. Marylou Gonzales was arrested last August after | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
documentary evidence was found at her home. Whilst the extent of her | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
home is unclear, trading standards believe she had up to 60 borrowers | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
and records suggest that since 2005 up until 2011 when she was arrested | :06:31. | :06:37. | |
she had lent out up to �50,000 and collected �130,000 with added | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
interest. The judge heard that some borrowers within the Filipino | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
community were grateful, but she offered no paperwork and people | :06:46. | :06:54. | |
were and Claire as to how much they owed. Apparently, it is normal | :06:54. | :07:04. | |
practice in the Philippines. Back home, people tend to turned to him | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
for more lenders. Marylou Gonzales leaves here today with a criminal | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
record and no chance of recovering the �70,000 back that she is still | :07:13. | :07:23. | |
:07:23. | :07:28. | ||
owed. A nurse from Reading has been given | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
a special award for his pioneering work to combat Hepatitis C. Dean | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
Linzey has developed a programme to target hard to reach communities. | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
They can now take advantage of a little-known swab test which gives | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
results in a matter of minutes. He's now working with community | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
leaders in the area, as Joe Campbell reports. | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
Jules Fox has no medical qualifications, but she's uncovered | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
several cases of the so-called hidden disease of hepatatis C here | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
in Reading. It's all thanks to a simple test that can tell if | :07:50. | :07:58. | |
someone has the condition in just 20 minutes. It is very easy. You do | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
not need a clinical area. There is no mess or any blood. It is easy to | :08:04. | :08:11. | |
do and the results are delivered there and then. | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
Jules was trained by Dean Linzey. He brought the scheme to Reading | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
after years working overseas. His time in Africa showed that often it | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
was best to get tribal elders to carry out screening for blood borne | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
diseases among people who would otherwise have to travel for days | :08:23. | :08:31. | |
to the nearest clinic. I would love to go back to some of the villages | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
I have worked in and talk to some of the elders who are probably by | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
now sitting on a lock it in a clearing same, the word you have | :08:40. | :08:49. | |
done is been well down in the developed world. -- is being rolled | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
out in the developed world. This time the swab shows it's an | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
all-clear. But the success in revealing cases among drug users | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
means a new trial is underway. Now a group of women from the Pakistani | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
community are learning how to take the test to fellow members of | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
another group with higher than average infection rates from the | :09:04. | :09:12. | |
disease. Bournemouth Airport after the nose | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
of a navy jet collapsed on the runway. The Sea Vixen's | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
undercarriage is reported to have collapsed and the plane is tilted | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
to one side. Bournemouth Airport say passengers do not need to | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
change their travel arrangements as operations have not been disrupted. | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
It's 30 years to the day since the military taskforce left Portsmouth | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
to head to the Falkland Islands. Tonight, more than 250 senior | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
commanders from the campaign are gathering at Pangbourne College in | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
Berkshire to mark the anniversary. Our Defence Correspondent Caroline | :09:33. | :09:41. | |
Wyatt is there for us now. It is a remarkable gathering. More | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
than 250 senior commanders from the Falklands 30 years on. We are here | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
at the Memorial Chapel. Many veterans had been going there to | :09:50. | :10:00. | |
:10:00. | :10:03. | ||
look at the war memorials. I and joined by one of the bike | :10:03. | :10:13. | |
:10:13. | :10:17. | ||
commanders. What do you remember about it? I was surprised and to be | :10:17. | :10:24. | |
able to go and do that and succeed is wonderful. When you look back at | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
the images and the ferocity of some of the land battles, in must have | :10:29. | :10:38. | |
been frightening? War Kent quickly to us and to see the efforts to try | :10:38. | :10:48. | |
:10:48. | :10:56. | ||
and rescue the ship's -- ships was unbelievable. You now living | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
Portsmouth. Have you stayed in touch with other veterans? Yes. We | :11:01. | :11:06. | |
have reunions. We have one coming up in June and there are a lot of | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
all friends here tonight. Otherwise, it is when you bump into people | :11:10. | :11:17. | |
more than keeping things going. Thank you. We will let you go to | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
the dinner and now back to the studio. | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
A sailor whose vessel ran aground in high seas off Dorset had to be | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
rescued by helicopter because he was too weak and cold to walk more | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
than a few steps. The RNLI and coastguard were call to the scene | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
at Chesil Beach in the early hours of Wednesday morning. Rescue teams | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
tried to drag the vessel off the beach without success. The cold and | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
exhausted man was airlifted to Dorset County Hospital. | :11:44. | :11:50. | |
Plans for a new Ikea store in Reading have been approved. West | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
Berkshire councillors voted in favour of the plans for a store | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
near Junction 12 of the M4 at a meeting last night. Some residents | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
and businesses oppose a new store, saying it could cause serious | :11:59. | :12:09. | |
:12:09. | :12:09. | ||
congestion on surrounding roads. Anyone reporting anti-social | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
behaviour should receive a better response in future, according to | :12:13. | :12:20. | |
Sussex Police. It is working on a report to recommend improvements | :12:20. | :12:28. | |
for when police deal with reports of anti-social behaviour. Coming up | :12:28. | :12:34. | |
- a woman who paid thousands of dollars to make sure an Olympic | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
torch is returned to her family. A teenager from Sussex, who was | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
orphaned at just eight-years-old, is training for a charity walk to | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
help other children who have lost their parents. Chloe Willis's | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
father was killed in a motorbike crash when she was just four. Her | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
mother died four years later. About 24,000 children lose a parent every | :12:49. | :12:59. | |
:12:59. | :13:00. | ||
year - that's one every 22 minutes. Every Saturday for three away as | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
Chloe and Amanda go walking. Not for fun, but for training. You're a | :13:06. | :13:15. | |
enjoy it and you can talk about stuff. It is bad when you slip over. | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
They are doing six miles today. They need to do 12 to raise money | :13:20. | :13:30. | |
:13:30. | :13:32. | ||
for bereaved children. We are doing the walk for a charity because they | :13:32. | :13:40. | |
help me when I was younger when I lost my parents. Chloe lost her | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
mother and father within a few years of each other. She found it | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
impossible to talk to people about it. I was isolated and nobody knew | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
how I felt. By up a visit to a camp for bereaved children changed all | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
that. The centre run by a West Sussex charity encourages children | :14:00. | :14:06. | |
to open up about their feelings. When the children meet other | :14:06. | :14:14. | |
children and young people, they can say how it really is. On Saturday, | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
Chloe and Amanda will be doing their bit for the 24,000 children | :14:19. | :14:28. | |
who lose a parent every year. So far they have raised �116. Good | :14:28. | :14:35. | |
luck to the girls. Hopefully they will raise a lot of money. Now the | :14:35. | :14:45. | |
:14:45. | :14:46. | ||
sport. Team GB are doing well in the cycling. | :14:46. | :14:51. | |
It does bode well for the Olympics. The Great Britain women's cycling | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
team, which includes Southampton's Dani King, has won gold at the | :14:54. | :14:56. | |
world championships in Melbourne. King, along with Joanna Rowsell and | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
Laura Trott in the team, broke the world record in the semi-final and | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
then again in the final, beating Australia. King is a former Barton | :15:03. | :15:10. | |
Peverell student. Another big weekend of Football | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
League action coming up over Easter. Two rounds of games, Brighton are | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
at Burnley tomorrow, aiming to stay in the play off picture and Reading | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
will hope to take advantage of Southampton's inactivity by leaping | :15:19. | :15:27. | |
to the top of the table when they play Leeds. Here's boss Brian | :15:27. | :15:35. | |
McDermott. We have to enjoy it. This is what it is about at this | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
stage of the season, enjoying the gains and live in each moment | :15:39. | :15:47. | |
because we have put ourselves and a good position. -- in a good | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
position. This weekend also sees one of | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
football's fiercest and most passionate rivalries with the two | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
clubs involved at a crossroads in their proud histories. Southampton | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
host Portsmouth, Saints on the brink of promotion back to the | :15:58. | :15:59. | |
Premier League. Portsmouth in administration, facing question | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
marks over their future and in danger of being relegated. Quite a | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
lot at stake for fans of both clubs, but actually, they quite like | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
having each other around. To enable city's 17 miles apart and when | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
Southampton and Portsmouth made on the football pitch, it is one of | :16:11. | :16:21. | |
:16:21. | :16:24. | ||
the most passionate derby games of all. They have not had the -- you | :16:25. | :16:34. | |
want to get one over on your Opposition. This student wanted to | :16:34. | :16:42. | |
understand more about the rivalry, so he made a film. In doing so, he | :16:42. | :16:52. | |
:16:52. | :16:54. | ||
bought old rivals together. He has got blue blood in him. Portsmouth, | :16:54. | :17:01. | |
home of the Royal Navy. Southampton, or one of the largest merchant navy | :17:02. | :17:10. | |
ports. No matter where the teams are in the leap, neither | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
Southampton or Portsmouth fans want to see their rivals go out of | :17:14. | :17:21. | |
business simply because the rivalry is so important. These men agreed | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
on a lot when they came together. Both passionate fans and keen to | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
point out that no matter how fierce the rivalry, it is only a game. | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
On Saturday night, the South Coast Derby is one of the featured games | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
on the Football League Show. That's at 11.50pm. All the goals from | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
Monday's games will be on the show at 11.3pm, also on BBC One. The BBC | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
website has extended highlights of every game and, of course, BBC | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
local radio has commentary on them all across the weekend. Due to our | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
Titanic special on tuesday night, we'll run through the highlights of | :17:50. | :18:00. | |
:18:00. | :18:01. | ||
the games on Tuesday lunchtime's programme at 1.30pm. On the first | :18:01. | :18:11. | |
:18:11. | :18:19. | ||
day of the new cricket season, How far would you go to get back a | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
family heirloom? Kenneth Duncan was a distinguished athlete and key | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
member of the British Olympic Association during the 1948 London | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
Games. He was given an Olympic Torch in recognition for his work. | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
Later, he passed it to a friend in America. Now, his grandaughter | :18:30. | :18:35. | |
Isabelle has just returned from the US after buying his torch back. | :18:35. | :18:45. | |
Isabelle joins us now. Thank you for coming in with the torch. It is | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
fantastic. Why does it so important to get it back? It has huge | :18:50. | :18:55. | |
sentimental value. My grandfather had it for most of his life, from | :18:55. | :19:02. | |
1948 and will he died in 2005. I felt with the Olympics coming up, | :19:02. | :19:12. | |
:19:12. | :19:13. | ||
but talk should be in the country. So, I brought it back. At a cost. | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
Yes. I negotiated for about six months and eventually agreed on a | :19:18. | :19:26. | |
price. A bit more than I hoped for. $18,000, which is about �12,000. | :19:26. | :19:36. | |
:19:36. | :19:37. | ||
have to say, I did get an Olympic Order for that as well. He had a | :19:37. | :19:46. | |
long history with a torch. In 1948, a major involvement in that? Yes. | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
He was technical director of the torch relay, so he helped to co- | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
ordinate the torch from southern Greece to London. At one point, in | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
France he was led to Rolls Royce and cruised behind the runners in | :20:01. | :20:10. | |
:20:11. | :20:12. | ||
his Rolls Royce. Did he compete as well? Yes. It was long jump. He was | :20:12. | :20:20. | |
a great athlete and he was a very good sprinter as well. He | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
represented Great Britain on a number of occasions. With 2012, | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
what is the significance? What does it mean to you to have this | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
fabulous 1948 torch? It means a lot. My grandfather always said it would | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
come back to London. I am sad he is not alive to see it. He was | :20:39. | :20:44. | |
interviewed several times on television about this obviously | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
wanted it to come back to London. It means a lot to me, very | :20:49. | :20:55. | |
sentimental. A you go to put it somewhere saved? Definitely. Thank | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
you for coming in. When the Titanic sank 100 years ago | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
it had a profound impact on Southampton. Nearly 600 people from | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
the city never returned. Most of them were working men with children | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
and families to support. In the third of his special reports on the | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
Titanic, Tom Hepworth has been to meet one woman from Bitterne whose | :21:11. | :21:20. | |
family suffered more than most. Four of Angela Scarrott's relatives | :21:20. | :21:30. | |
:21:30. | :21:31. | ||
died on the Titanic. Behind the smiles of her grandparents wedding | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
photo, a private tragedy Three of Angela's great- | :21:33. | :21:35. | |
grandfathers and a great-great uncle worked in the bowels of the | :21:35. | :21:43. | |
ship. Richard Baines was a greaser, Robert George Roberts was a fireman | :21:43. | :21:53. | |
:21:53. | :21:55. | ||
and Frank and William Long were Being a tremor was one of the | :21:55. | :22:02. | |
hottest, hardest and dirtiest jobs on board. Titanic carried 3,500 | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
tonnes of coal. William Anne Frank would deliver it took 60 furnaces | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
in wheelbarrows. They would also have to move it around in the | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
bunkers so that it did not destabilise the ship. They are on | :22:15. | :22:25. | |
forgotten heroes. -- they are unsung heroes. It is really sad. | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
They knew they were not going to get a place on the lifeboat. | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
One of Angela's grandfathers, Robert George Roberts, lived here | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
at Wheelers Court and probably wouldn't have joined the crew if it | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
weren't for a chance encounter Less than a year after the Titanic | :22:39. | :22:49. | |
:22:49. | :23:00. | ||
sank, Tom Thorne married Florence. The families left behind were | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
catered for by the relief fund, but William Long's wife couldnt cope. | :23:03. | :23:10. | |
The family lived at Marine Terrace, near Bevois valley. | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
Two years after losing her husband, Eunice Long put her two eldest sons | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
William and George into the Barnardo's home in Southampton. | :23:20. | :23:23. | |
have got children myself and the thought that I could not cope, I | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
could not look after my children, to send them off somewhere, that | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
must have been awful for her. In 1921, a year after his brother | :23:32. | :23:35. | |
died, 14-year-old George was put on a ship and sent to live in Canada. | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
He was one of thousands of disadvantaged children who were | :23:38. | :23:40. | |
effectively deported under the child migration scheme to provide | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
what was called good white stock to the colonies. Many suffered | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
physical and sexual abuse and were told wrongly that their parents had | :23:48. | :23:58. | |
:23:58. | :23:59. | ||
died. Gordon Brown's apology two years ago came too late for George. | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
We are truly sorry. They were let down. The FA sorry they were | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
allowed to be sent away at the time they were most vulnerable. We are | :24:08. | :24:13. | |
sorry that instead of caring for them, this country turned its back. | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
Keith Scarrott's still trying to find out what happened to George. | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
He knows he married in 1927 in London, Ontario. It's unlikely his | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
mother was there. Another wedding with the parents missing. | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
On Tuesday we'll have a special South Today live from the new Sea | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
City Museum in Southampton. Our series of films on the Titanic | :24:29. | :24:39. | |
:24:39. | :24:50. | ||
continues and Tom Hepworth travels You might guess that is the Olympic | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
torch. Unfortunately we do not have that clipped, but Tom will be | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
travelling to Canada and we will have that story for you on Tuesday. | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
And now for the weather. We have been talking about hosepipe bans. | :25:04. | :25:12. | |
Is the rain coming? It says. But first, let us have a | :25:12. | :25:22. | |
:25:22. | :25:26. | ||
There is a promise of rain, but tonight will be dry and cold. Quite | :25:26. | :25:34. | |
a bit of frost heading away as well. Temperatures taking a sharp drop. | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
The cloud is dissipating as we speak with clear conditions | :25:39. | :25:49. | |
:25:49. | :25:51. | ||
arriving as we speak. Temperatures down to freezing point. Widespread | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
frost, but a bigger. For Good Friday. Lots of sunshine at first. | :25:56. | :26:06. | |
:26:06. | :26:07. | ||
That cloud comes in from the north later in the day. There will be | :26:07. | :26:13. | |
patchy rain by the evening, but it will be insignificant. A cloudier | :26:13. | :26:23. | |
:26:23. | :26:25. | ||
and milder night. Saturday, a grey, dull day. Very few breaks in that | :26:25. | :26:31. | |
club developing, but it should be predominantly dry. Generally, much | :26:31. | :26:38. | |
cooler with a north-easterly breeze. Sunday, some rain on and off | :26:38. | :26:47. | |
throughout the day. Again, it will be quite mild. Monday, we have some | :26:47. | :26:51. | |
serious rain heading out what way. A cold front coming in which will | :26:52. | :26:57. | |
give us a wet start. Further rain is heading our way as we head | :26:57. | :27:07. | |
:27:07. | :27:14. | ||
towards next week. Here is a It is going to be dry tomorrow, | :27:14. | :27:22. | |
barely dry on Saturday, rain on Sunday, lots of rain up by Monday. | :27:22. | :27:28. |
