This is BBC World News Today with me, Tim Willcox. Is Syria's | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
leadership really ready to talk? As President Assad tours areas in Homs, | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
until recently the heart of the rebellion, his government says it | :00:17. | :00:24. | |
accepts the Kofi Annan peace plan. The Syrian government has now | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
written to the Joint Special Envoy Kofi Annan accepting his six point | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
plan. Mr Annan has written to President Assad urging the Syrian | :00:31. | :00:38. | |
government to put its commitments into immediate effect. | :00:38. | :00:40. | |

Hello and welcome. After a year of bloodshed in Syria that the UN | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
thinks has now claimed as many as 9,000 lives, Kofi Annan's | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
announcement that Damascus has accepted his peace plan may be | :01:48. | :01:54. | |
treated with scepticism by many. His comments coincided with | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
President Assad making a rare foray into Homs, the former heartland of | :01:56. | :02:06. | |
:02:06. | :02:15. | ||
the rebellion, and a meeting of the The Syrian President a-share our | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
asset apparently visiting the Baba Amr and area of Homs. This, for the | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
first time since military forces besieged the area, killing hundreds | :02:26. | :02:35. | |
and forcing rebel fighters to withdraw. But elsewhere in Homs, | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
the battle appears far from over. This video, which has not been | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
independently verified, allegedly showing a neighbourhood still been | :02:44. | :02:50. | |
shelled by government forces. Here and across many parts of Syria, | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
people continue to die every day. But now at least beat efforts of | :02:56. | :03:02. | |
veteran diplomats Kofi Annan seemed to be working. He secured the | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
support of the Chinese as well as the Russians for his peace plan. | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
And today he also announced that the Syrian government itself had | :03:12. | :03:22. | |
agreed to his initiative. I have received a response from the Syrian | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
government and will be making it public today. This is positive. | :03:26. | :03:36. | |

end the bloodshed of the past year, At a meeting in Turkey today, | :03:59. | :04:05. | |
Syrian opposition activists were sceptical about the government | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
fulfilling their side. We are very cautious when we see that the | :04:08. | :04:15. | |
regime is accepting anything. We want to see that implemented on the | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
ground and compliance by the regime is something that we need to see | :04:17. | :04:24. | |
happen. This, the reason many are so cautious about the deal. Yet | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
another badly injured child been brought to a field hospital in Homs. | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
According to the latest figures from the UN, more than 9,000 people | :04:34. | :04:44. | |
:04:44. | :04:47. | ||
have been killed so far, most of them civilians. Syrian opposition | :04:47. | :04:54. | |
groups have held two days of talks. Let us join our correspondent there. | :04:54. | :05:00. | |
There was a walkout from a well known Syrian dissident. How United | :05:00. | :05:06. | |
are they? It is as desperate as Syria is. When the council was | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
established six months ago, it was supposed to be an umbrella group. | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
It has never been as coherent as the transitional government in | :05:15. | :05:22. | |
Libya. They are disagreeing about everything. There has been a | :05:22. | :05:32. | |
:05:32. | :05:36. | ||
walkout as well by a Kurdish group. They are a significant part of the | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
population and one their efforts to be recognised. There are a lot of | :05:40. | :05:46. | |
people here there. There are delegates from every possible | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
ideological background. They are talking and at least a green on | :05:51. | :05:57. | |
their goals. They also agree that they do not believe for one moment | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
that President Assad can meet the Kofi Annan plan. I asked them if | :06:03. | :06:10. | |
they were willing to speak to President Assad and they said we | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
probably won't get there. They do not believe he will take his strips | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
off the street. For all that, the fact that President Assad has | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
accepted the plan does cause some difficulties. They are talking | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
about getting more international support and now they have to shift | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
diplomacy which will be hard for some of them. Where do we stand now | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
regarding a potential buffer zone within Syria along the border with | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
Turkey? It is not going to happen yet. It has been talked about by | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
Turkish politicians, immensely frustrated by the bloodshed in | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
Syria. There is nothing they can do. The buffer zone is there as an | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
option only if there is a massive influx of Syrians. It is not going | :07:00. | :07:10. | |
:07:10. | :07:11. | ||
to happen yet and the fact is that Kofi Annan's plan shifts the focus. | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
The Russians and Chinese support it and the international community | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
cannot agree on any other action. I think people need to give diplomacy | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
a chance and for the opposition that mean sitting back and | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
accepting the bloodshed they have gone through. The bitter pill is | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
joining the diplomatic process that does not guarantee President Assad | :07:34. | :07:41. | |
it will leave power at the end of Rafik Abdessalem is Tunisia's | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
Foreign Minister. I asked him how optimistic the world should be | :07:44. | :07:52. | |
about the pledge from Damascus. Personally, I am pessimistic, but | :07:52. | :07:58. | |
let us hope things going the right direction. It all depends on the | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. He needs to listen to the demands | :08:04. | :08:13. | |
of his people. If he does listen to the demands for more democracy, | :08:13. | :08:23. | |
:08:23. | :08:25. | ||
freedom, things might go up in the right direction. To ask for a | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
system to be changed that has been in place for many years will be | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
difficult. The Syrian opposition is not united. How much of a factor | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
will that be? Will they be greeted even sit down to direct talks? | :08:39. | :08:46. | |
this is one of the difficulties of the Syrian crisis. There is a | :08:46. | :08:56. | |
:08:56. | :08:57. | ||
political polarisation. If we have a common voice that comes from the | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
Syrian opposition, the balance of power what will be in favour of the | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
political change. Let us hope that the Syrian opposition overcome this | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
internal division. You have been in post for three months. The | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
international community is welcoming you, but if he were asked | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
about the situation in Syria, what would your advice be to the | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
international community about what to do with that situation? I think | :09:22. | :09:28. | |
to support the legitimate demands of the Syrian people, to have peace | :09:28. | :09:34. | |
for political change, not to move towards any militarisation of the | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
conflict. There was a militarisation of the conflict in | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
Libya and that was the deciding factor. Do you still said that is | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
the wrong direction to go as far as there is concern? Yes. The main | :09:48. | :09:56. | |
problem in Syria is the Bashar al- Assad regime. The situation in | :09:56. | :10:03. | |
Libya was different. In Syria we have a religious and sectarian | :10:03. | :10:13. | |
:10:13. | :10:14. | ||
division. The Assads had been power for 40 years. Come the end of their | :10:14. | :10:22. | |
regime, what problems will be encountered? It depends on the | :10:22. | :10:30. | |
movement of the political parties in Syria. If they can control the | :10:30. | :10:40. | |
:10:40. | :10:45. | ||
situation, help the country come back to normality of, -- normality, | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
it would be a good thing. It in the immediate short-term, you are not | :10:49. | :10:58. | |
optimistic of a quick solution? Unfortunately, I am not. | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
Now a look at some of the day's other news. | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
President Nicolas Sarkozy has urged TV networks not to broadcast | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
violent videos filmed by the Mohamed Merah during his fatal | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
attacks in Toulouse. A USB stick containing the footage was sent to | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
Al Jazeera. They have decided not to broadcast the images. The | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
families of the victims have also called for the footage not to be | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
shown. World leaders have vowed to take | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
strong action against nuclear terrorism at the end of a summit in | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
South Korea. The 53 leaders said the threat was one of the most | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
challenging facing the world today. The summit comes at a time of | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
growing international concern over the nuclear programmes of both Iran | :11:31. | :11:41. | |
:11:41. | :11:42. | ||
and North Korea. The operators of an oil platform | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
off the coast of Scotland say it could take at least six months for | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
them to stop a gas leak there. The oil company Total says its looking | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
at several options to try to stem the leak at the Elgin platform, | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
including drilling a relief well. There's now a three kilometre | :11:54. | :11:57. | |
exclusion zone around the rig, with over 300 workers evacuated. | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
Fighting on the disputed oil-rich border region between South Sudan | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
and Sudan has continued for a second day. The South says clashes | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
have taken place on the ground while its northern neighbour has | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
bombed its positions. The clashes appear to be centred on disputed | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
towns close to the border. Authorities in Khartoum say a visit | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
to the South by Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir has been cancelled, | :12:14. | :12:24. | |
:12:24. | :12:28. | ||
but could be re-scheduled if lower One official from an well company | :12:28. | :12:34. | |
said a bomb landed within the oilfields near one of his team | :12:34. | :12:41. | |
sites. That claim has been denied. Secondly, salsa band's military | :12:41. | :12:51. | |
:12:51. | :12:53. | ||
spokesman says there is fighting going on on the ground there are a | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
major oil field. I have not been able to confirm that, but it is | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
clear the situation between these two countries are deteriorating. | :13:01. | :13:11. | |
:13:11. | :13:12. | ||
Both except there were clashes along the disputed border on Monday. | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
Sudanese officials Arnaud saying that the President will travel, but | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
if political and military progress is made the summit could be pushed | :13:23. | :13:29. | |
back to a later date. At the moment, things are looking pretty bleak. | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
Gill Lusk is editor of Africa confidential. It looks like the | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
most serious confrontation since independence. What do mecca the | :13:37. | :13:42. | |
timing? It does look serious. The timing, this war has been building | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
up for some time. The fighting did not just been -- begin yesterday | :13:47. | :13:53. | |
morning, although that is when the Sudan army bombed into the oil | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
fields in southern Sudan. Do you think there is some power play | :13:56. | :14:04. | |
going on in Khartoum itself and that the Shia is under pressure? | :14:04. | :14:11. | |
The it is about power, but more broadly it is about the sudden | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
government. They are saying they are not going to be pushed around. | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
This is the feeling you get in southern Sudan and in the north, it | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
is about the Government trying to hold on to power work because they | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
are a deeply unpopular government and as well as the war with the | :14:29. | :14:35. | |
south, there is a war against Northern armed opposition. That is | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
what most of the fighting has been about recently. Obviously, this is | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
an area that is oil-rich. But countries depend on each other in | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
terms of pipe mines, or production and the economy. Is it all about | :14:50. | :14:57. | |
whale, or are there many other factors? Many other factors. It is | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
about power. Khartoum is trying to divert attention from its own | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
problems in the north and it is doing this by having a war with the | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
South. It has always used to war as a political weapon since it took | :15:11. | :15:17. | |
power. In the south it is about asserting their sovereignty. Both | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
countries accuse each other of supporting armed militia. What | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
evidence is there to support that? There is plenty of evidence that | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
Khartoum was supporting it militia. They have used proxy forces for | :15:32. | :15:39. | |
many years. The sudden government is supporting the northern rebels, | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
yes, but that tends a hide the fact that it is really an internal more | :15:43. | :15:53. | |
:15:53. | :15:56. | ||
than problem here going on. The Some say it could be the spark that | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
ignites the next industrial revolution. Others say it is | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
meddling with nature. Either way, it is one of Britain's research | :16:03. | :16:09. | |
priorities. It involves producing artificial DNA to make things such | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
as medicines, fuels and materials. Imagine the power to design new | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
forms of life, to dream up new versions of the genes inside every | :16:19. | :16:22. | |
living thing on earth and create organisms that have never before | :16:22. | :16:28. | |
existed. That is what is happening here in this lab in Imperial | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
College in London. The researchers are not just studying life, the are | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
reshaping it. This is synthetic biology's. It is an emerging | :16:38. | :16:46. | |
science which could transform the industry and medicine and science. | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
It is clear that these techniques can be applied across a wide range | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
of different fields, from health care through due energy and | :16:54. | :17:01. | |
agriculture. What is synthetic biology? The starting point is | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
something that has been around for years, genetic modification. There | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
is the bundle of genes inside the cell. The modified them by splicing | :17:11. | :17:16. | |
in DNA from another organism. What they're doing now goes much further. | :17:16. | :17:22. | |
It relies on the fact that DNA is a coat for life, made up of just four | :17:22. | :17:29. | |
basic building-blocks represented here by these four letters. As with | :17:29. | :17:36. | |
any Engineering progress, these components have to be re- Eddie -- | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
rearranged to design new genes. The scientists take these for building | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
clock's -- these for building blocks to create their own version | :17:46. | :17:52. | |
of synthetic, man-made DNA. The final stages the most extraordinary. | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
They take a cell with all of its own original DNA stripped out and | :17:56. | :18:00. | |
insert the synthetic DNA, getting the organism to do whatever they | :18:00. | :18:06. | |
want, taking control of nature. What can this do? The fight against | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
malaria, carried by mosquitoes, will see a vaccine made with | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
synthetic biology later this year. Algae with synthetic genes could | :18:16. | :18:23. | |
make fuel. We could be driving with the stuff in years ahead. New crops | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
may cope with drought and disease to feed a world of 7 billion. It is | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
one of countless ideas. We are here today to announce the first | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
synthetic cell. Two years ago, an American scientist announced the | :18:38. | :18:43. | |
first living thing with synthetic DNA. Are we ready for such a | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
fundamental step? These advances are exciting but terrifying. The | :18:49. | :18:53. | |
offer the possibility of creating new life forms that will deal with | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
many of the world's greatest problems, but it will create life | :18:58. | :19:04. | |
forms in the human immune system and the world - or -- in that the | :19:04. | :19:10. | |
human immune system and the world which we have not experienced. | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
There are more worried about this new research. Scientists say they | :19:14. | :19:20. | |
are doing everything safely. It we are working within the design phase | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
about how we can develop kill switches, little method and -- | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
little mechanisms whereby the organism would kill itself. These | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
would ensure that the organism will not interfere with the natural | :19:31. | :19:37. | |
world. We do not one that to happen. A it was only 60 years ago that | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
scientists discovered how genes work as the court for life. Now, | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
they're taking charge. We're on the brink of a new Europe and the | :19:44. | :19:54. | |
public debate about it has only just begun. -- and U E Rush. | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
Pope Benedict has arrived in the Cuban capital of Havana. He is due | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
to meet the President later. Earlier, he prayed for detained | :20:02. | :20:08. | |
Cubans during a visit to them country's most important Catholic | :20:08. | :20:15. | |
shrine, Our Lady of Charity in the east of Cuba. He urged students to | :20:15. | :20:21. | |
build anew and open society during a mass in the eastern city of | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
Santiago de Cuba. Cuba was officially atheist until 1992. | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
Since then, the Catholic Church has been slowly reviving the state. | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
Some accuse it of focusing so much and that that it is failing to | :20:34. | :20:43. | |
speak out on Schumann right. -- on human rights. For four decades, a | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
vast statue of Christ towered over atheist Cuba. It was not removed | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
during the revolution, but this is a secular country now. The Catholic | :20:52. | :20:57. | |
Church is busy reasserting itself. This is a Breakfast Club for | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
schoolchildren and a poor neighbourhood of Havana. But is one | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
of dozens of church project in a country where so much is controlled | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
by the state. We are not trying to compete with the government, Oscar | :21:11. | :21:17. | |
tells me. We're just here to help. There are other signs of a church | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
revival. I went to visit a smart new seminary just outside Havana as | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
the first church building permitted in Cuba since the revolution, when | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
religious schools were taken over and many priests fled. Now, 52 | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
young men are preparing for the priesthood here. They're trying to | :21:38. | :21:42. | |
cut Cubas dependence on clergy from abroad. When the seminary was | :21:42. | :21:47. | |
inaugurated in 2010, President Castro was invited to the ceremony. | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
It was a powerful symbol of the new relationship between the Catholic | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
Church and his communist state. There are some who wonder whether | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
the churches using that relationship as it should. Every | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
Sunday, after Mass, the ladies in white march in a silent protest for | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
human rights. It began when their husbands were imprisoned for their | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
political views. The men were released in 2010, after Cuba's | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
Cardinal intervened. The women are still marching. Last week, dozens | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
were detained by police. Tudor says they are paid by America to | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
undermine the revolution. The women say detention and harassment of | :22:27. | :22:35. | |
dissidence is a rising. -- is rising. The government told us, | :22:36. | :22:42. | |
you're not allowed to go to Mass with the Pope. The Catholic Church | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
has at social doctrine to which protects the marginalised and the | :22:47. | :22:53. | |
suffering, but the cardinal a silent about the atrocities the -- | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
the adduces the picture the Government is committed against the | :22:55. | :23:02. | |
people. Quiet diplomacy has brought result in the past and allowed | :23:02. | :23:10. | |
social work like this to continue. The Church will not be our flag of | :23:10. | :23:18. | |
justice. No. Our role is a different one. We're not here for | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
defending human rights, we are here to preach the gospel of Jesus | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
Christ, that will be clear. right to worship is free, at least. | :23:28. | :23:33. | |
He can be Catholic and Communist in Cuba. The result is a stronger | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
church, growing slowly, but after so many years of being barely | :23:38. | :23:46. | |
tolerated, it is still cautious that it is not entirely secure. | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
If you know London, you will be familiar with the blue plaques that | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
tell you about special historical significance of things around you. | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
A different kind of plaque has been unveiled today, marking the site | :23:58. | :24:06. | |
for one of Rock's iconic images was taken. 40 years ago, David Bowie | :24:06. | :24:12. | |
appeared on television looking like this. For some, it really did board | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
their minds. They are bomb was The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
the Spiders From Mars, and for one young fan, this image was a turning | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
point. Today, Gary Kemp of Spandau Ballet is back in the place where | :24:23. | :24:32. | |
that photograph was taken. Where exactly is this? A it is right here. | :24:32. | :24:38. | |
The sign was up there? I think what made Ziggy Stardust will protest -- | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
supported at the time was that it was coming out of a London much | :24:43. | :24:48. | |
darker and more impoverished than the recession we are suffering now. | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
As a working-class child, Ziggy Stardust offered an escape from | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
their every day which was quite grand an exciting and certainly out | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
reached my parents. 40 years on, it looks different around here. Very | :25:02. | :25:07. | |
shrubbery in the way, the rubbish is gone, and that lamp is very | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
different made a place was a the Stardust -- very definitely the | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
place was at the Stardust first appeared. Watching on were two | :25:18. | :25:25. | |
members of the original band. In 1972, Woody, the drummer, looked a | :25:25. | :25:33. | |
bit different. It took a bit of coaxing to get them into the outfit. | :25:33. | :25:39. | |
He said, someone has to wear pink. He said, you have to be a man to | :25:39. | :25:48. | |
wear pink! I went, OK, then. Even the man on the stage is entering | :25:48. | :25:54. | |
into the spirits. By what may not look like the grim backstreet on | :25:54. | :25:59. | |
the cover, it is part of rock history. The police were David | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
Bowie stepped out one wintry January evening, and it -- and | :26:03. | :26:10. | |
Ziggy Stardust came to earth. You have got to be a man to wear pink! | :26:11. | :26:19. | |
David Bowie has such power, doesn't he? A spokesman for Kofi Annan says | :26:19. | :26:21. | |
Syria has accepted his six-point plan for ending violence in the | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
country. It calls for a un monitored end to the fighting and | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
improved humanitarian access. The US State Department says it would | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
be an important step if backed up with action. Here is President | :26:38. | :26:45. | |
Assad and visiting the former rebel stronghold in in the city. He said | :26:45. | :26:49. | |
a better city would rise from the destruction. Next, the weather. | :26:49. | :26:59. | |

It has been another day of record- breaking temperatures across | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
Scotland, but after all of that warmth, it turns quite chilly | :27:08. | :27:14. | |
tomorrow morning. Things will warm- up as we see the return of the | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
sunshine, doing it all over it again tomorrow. It is keeping | :27:19. | :27:25. | |
things dry. We have high levels of pollen. It will cloud over across | :27:25. | :27:30. | |
northern Scotland with some hazy sunshine. Elsewhere, no is lit up | :27:30. | :27:40. | |
:27:40. | :27:41. | ||
with sunny skies. It will be higher temperatures in the south-east | :27:41. | :27:51. | |
:27:51. | :27:51. | ||
corner. It will be cooler on the coast. We have lost at risk wind. | :27:51. | :27:58. | |
We could see temperatures rising. In Wales, it will be fine and dry | :27:58. | :28:05. | |
with more sunshine in the afternoon. It may be cooler in the north coast | :28:05. | :28:11. |
