weather to scandinavia. we've still got the remnants of that weather front sitting in the north, but the other change i talked about is the wind direction. so, as we go around to the north and the northwest, it's a fresher feel. you can see the heat gradually ebbing away through the day on saturday. so, still a few thunderstorms around this evening — northeast parts of england, lincolnshire, east anglia, possibly 1—2 in northern ireland — but they fade away as we go through the night. the wet areas really dominated by the area of low pressure and its trailing weather front across north scotland. not just tonight but tomorrow as well, we could see some very significant rainfall totals building up here. it's one to watch. for most of us as showers fade away, it's misty and grey and quite warm again. we haven't lost that humidity yet. it's quite a warm start to the day, but also quite grey and misty, particularly over the hills in north and west areas, but there could be some fog just about anywhere. it does take a little longer to kick in this time of year. once it does so, some brighter spells coming through and very few showers for england and wales. still a scattering for northern ireland, but not as many as today.

south and eastern scotland faring quite well with some drier weather, but it is really looking quite wet across northern scotland. temperatures are, as i say, starting to drop away, a fresher feel and a generally quite fairly brisk breeze blowing. that weather front weekends as it heads south on sunday, but there is the fly in the ointment — this area of low pressure and how far north and east it will spread its influence, spread its rains by the time we get to sunday. cloudier for the eastern side of england and scotland on that weakening weather front, but drier further north and brighter. it'll be a little bit fresher. fewer showers for northern ireland, we feel, and further east across england as well, some drier weather. and it could be that that weather front gets stuck across western areas — so even by monday, most of the rain is in the west. but as i say, there's quite a lot of uncertainty surrounding that next area of low pressure at this stage. so, as ever, there's more on the website, including the warnings, and we'll keep you up—to—date.

good evening, i'm lizzie greenwood—hughes here with your latest sports news. emma raducanu flies the flag for britain tomorrow in the us open women's singles final, but we have a british winner today at flushing meadows. joe salisbury and rajeev ram of the united states have beatenjamie murray and the brazilian bruno soares in the men's doubles final. murray and soares took the first set 6—3 before ram and salisbury fought back to level it at six games to two. the momentum stayed with them, and the pair won the deciding set to become champions. it's their second major doubles title together. world number one novak djokovic continues his bid for a calendar grand slam when he plays matteo berritini in the men's semis later. the winner of that match will play daniil medvedev in the final. he beat felix auger alliassime in straight sets in the first semifinal. the great and good in tennis have been lining—up to heap praise on emma raducanu. the 18—year—old is yet to drop a set at the us

open, and the 18—time grand slam champion martina navratilova says it's even more impressive that she has reached the final as a qualifier, which has never been done before. the speed with which she did it, nobody could have predicted it. it's really outstanding. and she did it the hard way, she qualified. she didn't get the wild card, she didn't waltz in here, saying, i got to a run of 16. she did the hard way. and i think it paid off because she didn't play that well at the beginning of the tournament, and the qualifying. but she grew with each match and got better and better. but we knew she was going to get better because we've already seen her work hard. but again, she'sjust because we've already seen her work hard. but again, she's just taking it up to another level here, and it's very impressive. the ecb have written an open letter to the nearly 80,000 cricket fans who'd bought tickets for the fifth and final test against india which was called off today, just two hours before the start. it's hoped the game can be rescheduled for next summer. india said they were unable to field a team, after another positive covid case in their backroom staff led to fears the virus may spread to the players. currently the series will remain

a 2—1 victory for india. here's our sports correspondentjoe wilson. old trafford, new world, a test match cancelled because of covid. those who paid to fill the seats will be refunded, but many had already made the journey. working all night, so i've not slept all night to get here today to be cancelled at the last minute i find shocking. came from london, stayed here last night, and we booked a hotel last night when we came — for tonight. now we have to try and cancel that, it has been a complete nightmare, i take a day off work, - and then there is no game. who is to blame? it's not a blame thing, we're still living in a very difficult environment for elite sports performance. so to go from one anxiety—inducing environment to another one, which is the high—performance playing field, is very difficult,

and i think at times that goes past the point where players are comfortable to take the field. and i think that is what we have seen. india's players recorded negative pcr tests yesterday then announced it could not field a team. reassurance about safety was apparently not enough. what's next in world cricket? she super—lucrative indian premier league will resume later this month. do india want their star players involved in that? of course they do. i'll be honest, i think all of this is about money. i completely get what players have gone through in the last 18 months, it has been difficult — the bio bubbles, the mental health side is very important, we have to look after that. i believe this week was about money, making sure those players get to the ipl because they want to earn those big cheques — which again, i get — but i don't get it when it is at the expense of a test match. these performers booked to attend did. it can't be forgotten that a test

match is or was about entertainment. joe wilson, bbc news, old trafford. formula one is experimenting again this weekend with its new sprint race format to decide the grid for sunday's italian grand prix. the traditional style of qualfying took place this evening — and in the week, he was told he'd be leaving mercedes at the end of the season. valtteri bottas had the last laugh, topping the time sheets. he'll start saturday's sprint race ahead of lewis hamilton and championship leader max verstappen. birmingham city moved up to fourth in the championship with a 2—0 win over derby county. scott hogan put birmingham ahead in the first half beforejeremie bela sealed the three points with this strike ten minutes from time. derby have now won just one of their last 13 games under manager wayne rooney, dating back to last season. there's one match to tell you about in rugby league's super league tonight. st helens are now guaranteed a top—two finish after thrashing leeds rhinos 40—6. they scored seven tries against a leeds side hit by injury and suspension.

morgan knowles scored two of the tries. and britain's ethan hayter has retained the overall lead after stage six of the tour of britain — but only just. after taking four—and—a—half hours to cover 123 miles, it boiled down to a sprint finish in gateshead between the top riders. belgium's wout van art won the stage just ahead of hayter and now trails him byjust four seconds with two stages left. and that's all the sport for now.

this is bbc news, i'm martine croxall, with the headlines. 20 years since the the world was reshaped by the 9/11 attacks. people across the united states and the world prepare to reflect on the events and remember all those killed and injured. whether it's 9/11, whether it's january 13th, whether it's july 7th, i miss my dad and that will never change. the head of m15 tells the bbc that the return of the taliban in afghanistan is likely to have emboldened lone wolf terrorists in the uk. also in the programme... lawyers for the woman who's accused prince andrew of sexual abuse claim they've successfully served him with legal papers. for the first time in 22 years,

two teenagers will face each other in the us open final.
