in new south wales over the past week. officers have been searching a huge stretch of coastline after plastic—wrapped parcels containing the drug began to appear shortly before christmas. many of the packages were covered in barnacles, suggesting they might have been adrift for some time. the finishing touches are being put to preparations for new year's eve celebrations around the world. in london a large fireworks display will light up the thames. the 31st of december also marks 100 years since the bells of big ben were first broadcast. in 1923 bbc radio transmitted the famous bongs to the nation to herald the new year. time for a look at the weather, including the new year weather. hello there. good evening. some very wet, very windy weather for much of the uk today with tricky travelling conditions, particularly across much of the central belt of scotland with snow to low levels, that snow pushing further northwards and eastwards through the afternoon. it all comes courtesy of this deep area of low pressure working its way eastwards from the atlantic. a tight squeeze

on the iso bars here. so strong, gusty winds, heavy rain and still the cold front to come through overnight tonight across central southern england, east anglia and the far south east of england. there will be some heavy rain for a short while and some squally gusts of wind as the front comes through. particularly blustery towards the south coast. gusts of wind here towards more exposed locations could get as high as 50—60mph. potentially blustery showers following on behind. turning dry for scotland and here, not quite as cold as it was last night. now, this is how we'll start off new year's eve, sunday, of course. there will be a lot of dry weather out towards the east, i think, through the morning. staying dry across scotland for much of the day, but blustery showers still swirling around this area of low pressure, lighter winds across the center of low pressure. but again, towards the south coast of england and wales, there'll be some strong, gusty, brisk south—westerly winds blowing throughout the day. temperatures for most a little lower than they were earlier on today. and still some more blustery showers, i suspect, as we head into the evening. if you're out celebrating new year's eve, watch out because he may well catch a good scattering of showers towards the south as we head through the first part of the night.

but then they'll gradually fade away. so, fewer of them by the time we get to midnight, still very windy towards the south coast, could cause some disruption with fireworks, but mild here. we'll see more of the showers as we head into northern england and across parts of northern ireland. scotland looking largely dry. the winds a little lighter here, perhaps some of the showers a bit wintry over the tops of the hills where we see them. and then into new year's day itself, monday, well, another area of low pressure will approach from the southwest by the end of the day. but i think for much of the day, it should be largely dry and there'll be some sunshine around as well, particularly across wales, parts of central southern england, perhaps a legacy of cloud still stretching from south west scotland into northeast england for a time through the day. the winds will be lighter and the temperatures a little lower as well, 5—10 degrees celsius north to south. now, as we head through the rest of the week, then it is gradually going to be turning a little colder. it stays unsettled. more showers at times. bye— bye.
