Yard's handling of the case. That's all from the BBC News at Six, so | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
it's A multi`million pound investment in | :00:00. | :00:15. | |
Devonport to allow the refudlling of nuclear submarines to continue. Good | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
evening. It should help to safeguard jobs at the yard, but anti nuclear | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
campaigners have raised fears over safety. Babcocks will be rubbing | :00:23. | :00:30. | |
their hands together. It is lots of money for them. People in the area | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
will be worried, because it is another hazard for us. And the | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
mother of a teenage girl who took her life after allegations of | :00:39. | :00:45. | |
bullying is targeted by cybdrtrolls. Police are investigating after Izzy | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
Dix's mum complained of being bullied on Facebook. And frde school | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
meals for the under`eights ` one MP asks if the multi million pound cost | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
is value for money. One of Plymouth's biggest employers ` | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
Devonport Dockyard ` is to get 150 million worth of investment to | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
enable the future refuelling of Britain's nuclear submarine fleet. | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
The announcement was made bx the Defence Secretary after a f`ult was | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
found in a nuclear submarind test reactor in Scotland. Philip Hammond | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
said as a result Britain's oldest nuclear submarine, HMS Vangtard | :01:18. | :01:19. | |
would will refuelled at Devonport when it undergoes maintenance next | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
year. But as John Henderson reports the announcement has alarmed | :01:23. | :01:33. | |
anti`nuclear campaigners. HLS Vanguard entering Devonport in 002. | :01:34. | :01:43. | |
Now, Britain's first Ba llistic submarine will be tack, bec`use a | :01:44. | :01:51. | |
reactor in Scotland developdded a microfracture that indicated the | :01:52. | :01:59. | |
life of vanguard is not as long as expected. The advice we havd | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
received throughout from thd regulators and the experts hs that | :02:03. | :02:09. | |
there are no safety issues `rising. That this incident scores as a level | :02:10. | :02:16. | |
zero event on the international atomic agency's scale and an event | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
which requires no action and presents no risk. Millions have been | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
spent at Devonport, the onlx place in the country where nuclear | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
submarines can be refitted `nd refuelled. Thousands of people are | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
involved in the work which takes years. The additional cost of | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
refuelling Vanguard has been put at ?120 million. Devonport can expect a | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
chunk of the ?150 million sdt aside to allow the future refuellhng of | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
the submarine fleet. But not even welcomes the news of more investment | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
at Devonport. No new jobs, ht will be existing staff that are doing it. | :02:58. | :03:04. | |
Babcocks will be rubbing thdir hands together, because there will be lots | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
of money. People in the are` will be worried, because it ills another | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
hazard. The refuelling of HLS Vanguard will take place during a | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
three and a half year progr`mme starting in 2015. Well our Political | :03:20. | :03:26. | |
Editor Martyn Oates joins md now. Is is good news for if yard? Not if you | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
take the view that the presdnce of nuclear submarines is not ndeded. | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
But as John said, this refudlling will take place during a lengthy | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
period of deep maintenance work which had already been bookdd in to | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
start next year. Now, both this government and the last comlitted | :03:48. | :03:57. | |
all the navy's deep enance work to Devenport. The refuelling m`kes a | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
big job bigger and the investment means the facilities are thdre. | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
Could it have other implications for Plymouth? The city's MPs ard keen | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
for the city to be home to the Government's so`called nucldar | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
college to provide training not just for defence engineering, but for | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
power stations. One said thhs could possibly help to strengthen | :04:20. | :04:29. | |
Plymouth's case. Now here is Natalie. The mother of a tednage | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
girl who took her own life following claims of cyber`bullying saxs she is | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
being targeted by internet trolls. The police have confirmed they're | :04:37. | :04:38. | |
investigating claims of intdrnet abuse. Gabbi Dix, the mother of | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
schoolgirl Izzy, has described the behaviour as incomprehensible. Our | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
South Devon reporter John Axres is in Brixham now. Yes, this story | :04:46. | :04:56. | |
starts with schoolgirl Izzy Dix Friend claim she was being | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
cyberbullied. The inquest into her death said she did take her own | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
life. But there was no eviddnce of cyberbullying. This verdict | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
infuriated her family and friends and now it appears internet trolls | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
are attacking her mother, G`bbi This tier has been taken down `` | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
material has been taken down, but it is horrible. It is not the sort of | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
thing that we could show yot on the television. Earlier I spoke to Gabbi | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
Dix. She said that to attack a grieving mother is incomprehensible. | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
Where is the respect for my beautiful daughter's life and | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
memory? I spoke to one of G`bbi s friends and she said this. Not only | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
have their targeted a dead girl And a grieving mother. They havd | :05:46. | :05:54. | |
targeted lots and lots ` hundreds of other teens across the bay. I would | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
like this person identified, prosecuted and foregoodness sake | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
they need serious psychiatrhc help. The police say the force internet | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
crime investigation team ard investigating allegations of | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
trolling. They say due to the nature of the crime, the inquiry could | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
prove to be protracted. To date no arrests have been made. Thank you. A | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
Devon MP is questioning whether government plans to give frde school | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
meals to all children under eight at a cost of ?600 million a ye`r is | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
value for money. The Liberal Democrat MP for North Devon Sir Nick | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
Harvey has raised the issue in Westminster today. Some schools say | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
they need to buy new kitchen and dining equipment and that they'll | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
struggle to be ready for thd scheme when it starts in September. Jenny | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
Kumah reports. Rich poor, all children under eight in England will | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
be entitled to a free school meal from September. The Deputy Prime | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
Minister made the announcemdnt at his party conference last ydar. My | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
ambition is to provide free school meals for all primary | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
school`children. Another re`son we want to get into government again | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
next time round. Parents quhte like the idea, but for some schools it's | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
proving a bit of a headache. This school in Newton Abbot is expecting | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
to have to provide an extra 100 meals per day. At the moment, they | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
haven't got enough space in their hall to fit all the diners hn. We | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
asked the council whether it is possible to have to have an | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
extension on our hall which would allow us to have another 20 seats, | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
but we don't know whether or not we have got that. The school whll also | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
need a new dishwasher, more fridge freezer space and a new oven. The | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
Government has given Devon County Council ?1.2 million to help the | :07:41. | :07:46. | |
school pay for things like this But there is concern about just how far | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
that cash can go with potentially 300 schools bidding for cash from | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
the pot. In total the Government is setting aside more than ?1 billion | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
to help all English schools cover the cost of this. Ministers say it | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
will be worth it, because phlots show it can improve academic | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
performance, but some peopld feel the money would be better spent on | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
helping the poorest children throughout their school lifd. This | :08:11. | :08:17. | |
doesn't seem to me necessarhly the way I would have gone about trying | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
to close the educational gap if I had got ?600 million at my disposal. | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
But that is in a sense by the by, it's what the Government has decided | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
to do, Parliament has approved it and that's what's happening. It | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
seems there may not be such a thing as a free lunch after all. Well | :08:34. | :08:42. | |
you've been getting in touch with your views on this on Facebook. | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
Angela says: "With most pardnts working and packed lunches not being | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
healthy, we owe it to children to give them at least one good meal a | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
day." And Ronald e`mailed us to point out that while some children | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
are getting free school meals, meals on wheels for elderly peopld have | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
gone up! He says: "I wonder where the priorities are today, as we get | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
older society does not want to know." On our Facebook page Vanessa | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
says: "Parents should be responsible for feeding their own children. | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
Thanks for all your comments. Detectives investigating thd | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
discovery of a body on a Cornish beach have identified the m`n. Alan | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
Jeal from Wadebridge was captured on this CCTV image in the town centre | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
last Monday. It's the last known sighting of the 64`year`old. His | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
naked body was found at Perranporth the day after. His death is being | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
treated as suspicious. Fishdrmen affected by the recent storls are to | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
get extra help from the govdrnment to replace lost or damaged | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
equipment. They'll be able to get 60% of the cost of replacing kit. | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
Many fishermen were unable to go to sea during the storms and stffered | :09:49. | :10:02. | |
extensive damage to their gdar. Drinkers who become violent, or | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
commit other crimes, could be stopped from buying large qtantities | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
of alcohol from supermarkets under plans being considered by Ddvon and | :10:09. | :10:10. | |
Cornwall's Police and Crime Commissioner. Tony Hogg says | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
drink`related disorder is bdcoming an unacceptable burden on the police | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
and society. He's been holdhng talks with supermarkets about how to | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
tackle it. He also says he'll consider limiting opening thmes for | :10:20. | :10:26. | |
pubs and clubs. We have got to Ged ahead of the problem I have a | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
strategy which starts with better communication, better targeting and | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
ends up in proposing with the agreement of people of this area, to | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
limit the sale of alcohol bx time, ie cutting off the sales at two or | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
three in the morning, which is what I think the public want. . Still | :10:43. | :10:50. | |
ahead in the programme this evening: Pond owners get together to find out | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
more about the viruses that are killing frogs, toads and newts. And | :10:55. | :11:01. | |
one of the National Trusts biggest ever repair projects gets underway | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
at Castle Drogo. An extra ?00 million has been promised to | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
Somerset by the Government on the day the county delivered its 20`year | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
flood action plan to Downing Street. But Somerset's flooding wish list | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
will cost ?100 million and that s just for starters. Will the full | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
amount ever be raised? Scott Ellis has been finding out. After the | :11:23. | :11:30. | |
floods in Somerset, the fin`l 20`year action plan deliverdd to | :11:31. | :11:32. | |
Downing Street today. In thd final report, we have learned Somdrset | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
wants the tidal barrier near Bridgwater built in the next ten | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
years. Quicker than previously thought. The estimated cost is 30 | :11:44. | :11:51. | |
million. Part of an initial package totalling ?100. We asked if | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
Government is to pay the full amount. DEFRA, we put in ?10 million | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
to get cracking on the dredging as soon as it is safe. We have in DEFRA | :12:00. | :12:07. | |
put in two pots of ?10 millhon to help farmers. The Department of | :12:08. | :12:14. | |
Transport is putting in mondy and local government has put in half a | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
million to help local counchls with the recovery. So all that is a good | :12:19. | :12:24. | |
start. So the Government won't pay the full ?100 million, leavhng | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
summer `` Somerset to raise much of the cash itself. One is a local tax | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
to play for flood protection. Pre`95 when there was dredging there was a | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
levy and that was spent on keeping the levels as they are. So we are | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
going to have to raise monex and people will understand it whll be | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
spent on maintaining Somersdt. And Somerset will have to attract | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
investment. So it is an attraction that the areas are an area of | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
special scientific interest. Nature will be part of solution and it will | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
attract investment. Already farmers are getting significant amotnts to | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
manage their land in a wildlife friendly way. We believe thhs place | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
can trade on the quality of the natural environment. It will be a | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
County`wide effort. But in the long run it may work out cheaper than | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
annual flooding and the cost of each disaster. These pumps use 6,000 | :13:29. | :13:36. | |
litres of diesel each day. H'm told unofficially that the total cost of | :13:37. | :13:44. | |
the response to far this ye`r is ?6 million. There are wider costs to | :13:45. | :13:49. | |
Somerset's flood victims and businesses. James, back at his farm | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
today, where losses could rdach hundreds of thousands of potnds He | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
wants any money raised spent on preventing floods, rather than | :13:59. | :14:06. | |
resilience. Why not put mondy into helping the clean the river and you | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
wouldn't have to raise the road Somerset was told by the Prhme | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
Minister that money was no object. That was a short`term promise, fund | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
gt for the next 20 years will have to be hard`won by Somerset htself. | :14:19. | :14:26. | |
Well the effects of this winter s storms are still being felt and more | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
damage is coming to light all the time. In North Cornwall part of a | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
road into Port Gaverne has collapsed. People living thdre say | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
they feel cut off and as Eldanor Parkinson reports the road lay not | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
be repaired until the summer. Like many coastal villages in thd South | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
West, Port Gaverne was battdred by the storms and during the l`st high | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
tide the waves washed away part of the road leading into the vhllage. | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
South West Water engineers have been working to repair a broken sewage | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
pipe, but people living herd say they have been told it could be June | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
before the road itself is rdpaired. This little cove is popular with | :15:01. | :15:03. | |
visitors, in particular day visitors from just up the hill at Port Isaac. | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
Local businesses here say unless this road is fixed soon it will | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
affect their summer trade. Richard has just opened a guest house. He | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
says they feel cut off. To go to the Co`Op, which is a half mile round | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
trip for me, it's a 12 mile trip and they're closing the road up there on | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
Monday. So I don't know where we will go then. Do you think this | :15:30. | :15:37. | |
might affect your visitors? Yeah, I think it will affect here and the | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
pub, all sorts of things I think. The Port Gaverne Hotel is also open | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
for business, but they fear some people will be put off by the fences | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
and closure signs. People that know where we are and know the roads and | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
they will still find their way here, now we have got the signage right, | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
but it will make a difference, because a lot of people comd to Port | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
Isaac firstly and then come down the hill to us. Cornwall Council is also | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
facing a storm damage bill of more than ?21 million. They say they have | :16:06. | :16:12. | |
yet to assess this problem `nd come up with a time scale for repairs. | :16:13. | :16:20. | |
The engineer in charge of s`ving a historic clock tower in Cornwall | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
which was damaged by last month s storms says it was extremelx close | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
to coming down. As John Danks reports, the building in Kingsand | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
needed propping up after waves destroyed some of its found`tions. | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
Valentine's Day and a huge wave explodes against Kingsand's clock | :16:36. | :16:41. | |
tower and Institute building. Some feared the already storm`ravaged | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
structure wouldn't last the night. But survive it did, albeit with | :16:46. | :16:52. | |
significant damage. One of the interesting things was the `ctual | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
tower, we recorded it as moving as much as 15 millimetres as a result | :16:57. | :17:03. | |
of the storm damage! How close was it to coming down do you thhnk? | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
Extremely close. My first thoughts until I sat down and thought about | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
it was we are not going to be able to save this one. Almost three weeks | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
on and not only is the clock tower still standing, the building has | :17:19. | :17:20. | |
been stabilised and extensive repairs carried out. We havd | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
gradually built out and reinforced the hole with steel reinforcement, | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
tying it back into the masonry and then sprayed concrete so we have now | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
got a full thickness and yot can see it is looking a lot more robust than | :17:32. | :17:40. | |
it did. To keep it that way there's talk of raising the sea wall at the | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
base. All the work to save the building has been done with the | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
blessing of English Heritagd, who visited the site last month. The | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
cost so far is thought to bd in the region of ?100,000. Pond owners | :17:55. | :18:00. | |
across Cornwall are being asked to come forward to help research into | :18:01. | :18:03. | |
two deadly diseases that ard threatening frogs, newts and toads. | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
A student from Exeter University is conducting experiments to sde if the | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
diseases are present in the county and, if so, how far they've spread. | :18:12. | :18:14. | |
Chytrid fungus and ranavirus are already known to be in the TK and | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
are being blamed for the de`ths of huge numbers of amphibians `round | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
the world. Andy Birkett went along to see what the researchers | :18:23. | :18:32. | |
discovered. Look into my pond and you will find all sorts of | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
creatures. But are our frogs and newts coming under fire frol a new | :18:38. | :18:44. | |
disease. They are known to cause declines. Ranavirus can imp`ct | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
populations in other parts of the country and in common frogs. That | :18:49. | :18:58. | |
will have a knock on effect. We hope it won't be as bad as what we see. | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
Monitoring it is important. The search begins and we soon spot | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
something. He may have got `way for now, but we soon had our first | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
catch. We have got a newt! Hello! Where is he? He is there. They're so | :19:17. | :19:25. | |
camouflaged. Ally is putting out the message for pond owners to get in | :19:26. | :19:33. | |
touch. She is collecting salples. It was a link that a friend sent me on | :19:34. | :19:41. | |
Facebook. It said, told us `bout this study and I thought it looked | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
interesting so we found out more. Despite my help ` we still couldn't | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
find that frog. But we were on a roll with the newts. Tlncht is do | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
there `` There is two there. I have hit the jackpot. You have got five! | :19:58. | :20:05. | |
It was time to leave Ally t`ke her samples and in true televishon | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
tradition, she caught the frog after he left. I was warned never work | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
with children or amphibians He was waiting for him to leave! Sound like | :20:18. | :20:24. | |
it. One of the National Trust's largest repair projects is tnderway. | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
After years of having buckets in corridors to catch water from the | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
leaking roof, ?11 million is being spent on making Castle Drogo at | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
Drewsteignton watertight. Chris Lyddon has been given an early look | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
at the scale of the work before the site is open to visitors thhs | :20:40. | :20:48. | |
weekend. Drilling out 40 miles of mortar inch by inch. Lifting out 3 | :20:49. | :20:56. | |
thousand blocks of granite `nd relaying concrete by the bucketful. | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
It is the largest project ever undertaken by the National Trust. | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
The castle hardly recognisable and under a protective roof ` lhke | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
something out after a James Bond film set. From this weekend, it will | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
be open to visitors. But whx? We think it is important to sh`re the | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
whole process. We spend a l`rge amount on repairing our building and | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
this building. And ultimately we hold these for the benefit of the | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
nation. So it is important that not only do people experience what is | :21:33. | :21:37. | |
going on and see the work that has to be done to repair the buhldings, | :21:38. | :21:42. | |
but see where the money goes really. The walls and parapets abovd the old | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
leaking roof are all being taken down, stone by stone. To en`ble a | :21:48. | :21:53. | |
new water tight roof to go on. This is the original waterproofing. So we | :21:54. | :21:59. | |
have the original concrete `nd the original ash felt and a latdr layer. | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
The problem with the materi`l is it expands and contracts in thd hot and | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
cold and then it cracks and the water gets through. It is only when | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
you get to the top more an 60 foot up you can appreciate the scale of | :22:15. | :22:23. | |
the operation. The scaffoldhng weighs more than 500 tonnes. If you | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
laid them together they would reach as far as Cardiff. This is the base | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
of the tower. We have taken out the bottom two quarters of stondwork, so | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
bring the membrane across the lower roof and up to make a seal. These | :22:41. | :22:48. | |
plate and this this structure hold up all the castle above. Me`nwhile | :22:49. | :22:56. | |
deep down inside the castle... Here in the library the carpets `nd | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
pictures have been covered to protect them during the work. These | :23:01. | :23:03. | |
beams taken from the southern part of droe goes have been restored and | :23:04. | :23:11. | |
`` droe goes have been restored Each of the granite stones has its | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
own number and bears a yellow dot at its north`facing point to m`ke sure | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
it goes back in exactly the right place. Let's hope they get ht right. | :23:22. | :23:31. | |
The work here will go on until 017. What a mammoth project. Makds the | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
little DIY jobs I have got to do at home seem easier. Now time for the | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
weather. A little bird tells me summer might arrive this Christmas | :23:44. | :23:51. | |
This Christmas? What bird h`ve you been talking to. No, th weekend | :23:52. | :23:58. | |
Don't believe everything yot read. Will bit a white Christmas. Justin, | :23:59. | :24:06. | |
just get on with your work there! There is no need too switch your | :24:07. | :24:18. | |
heating on yet. Thank goodndss! Much quieter weather heading our way and | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
the most important story has to be the fact that there is no rdally | :24:22. | :24:24. | |
heavy rain in the forecast for the next five days. Some rain around | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
today and that has been heavier than we thought. Tomorrow it is ` cloudy | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
start, the mist will clear `nd the sunshine will return. This great | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
line of cloud is rain`bearing. The heaviest rain is across Ireland and | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
Scotland. It is sinking south, bringing further patchy rain. As it | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
does move south, it gets we`ker and waeshg. By the time `` ` we`ker By | :24:52. | :24:58. | |
the time it is over us therd not much in it. By the time we get to | :24:59. | :25:04. | |
the afternoon we have a weak ridge of high pressure that will dominate | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
the weather across the Chang, England and France. The winds coming | :25:09. | :25:14. | |
from the south mean higher temperatures No as high as xou have | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
been reading in the newspapdrs. There is the cloud from tod`y. We | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
have had patchy rain and sole has been quite heavy and a bit lore | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
widespread than we thought. This was earlier in the Tamar valley, the | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
skies were leaden and we had rain. But our cameraman Dan, I thhnk he is | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
a wildlife cameraman. These have been great shots of the moss and the | :25:43. | :25:51. | |
green ery. The rain fall th`t we will see over the next 24 hours is | :25:52. | :25:57. | |
very small. So eventually things improve, dry conditions in the | :25:58. | :26:06. | |
forexas cast for the weekend. But not tonight. Some rain and listy. | :26:07. | :26:14. | |
Some of it has not lifted. @ mild night at eight or nine degrdes. | :26:15. | :26:17. | |
Tomorrow rain in the morning. After lunch that does clear. The | :26:18. | :26:22. | |
visibility improves, the mist goes and the sunshine comes back out with | :26:23. | :26:27. | |
temperatures of 12 or 13. And much lighter winds too. For the Hsles of | :26:28. | :26:32. | |
Scilly, some patchy rain cldaring and then fine and dry. If you're | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
heading out to sea times of high water are: | :26:39. | :26:45. | |
Expect the surf to be useable, but on the choppy side. Sea temperature | :26:46. | :26:55. | |
around nine or ten degrees. Here is the coastal waters forecast. The | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
winds mostly from the west. They will veer north`westerly. And ease | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
during the day. Some showers and then becoming fair. How abott that | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
for an outlook? We haven't seen that for three months ` four mainly dry | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
days and I at the moment, I can t give you a noer cast for `` forecast | :27:14. | :27:21. | |
