wales and if you're england and wales and if you're early, shallow mist patches forming into tomorrow morning. sunday is looking similar to saturday, it should be mostly dry across scotland but there will be showers and outbreaks of rain towards western areas in particular. cloudy across northern ireland but a few breaks possible and we could see breaks in the cloud towards south—west scotland but most of the sunshine is for england and wales and if you are a nice little showers and breezy, cooler towards the north sea facing coasts. hello, this is bbc news. the headlines... the government says middle—income earners will need more help to pay their energy bills, notjust the poorest. but ministers claim waiting until a new leader is in place is the best approach. until a new leader is in place i until a new leader is in place think it's right that wi

become i think it's right that when they become prime minister, whoever it is, they will want to look at all of the options, properly costed. two men arrested on suspicion of murdering nine—year—old olivia pratt—korbel, who was shot dead in her home in liverpool, have been released on bail. a national emergency has been declared in pakistan after millions of people were forced from their homes. it follows the heaviest monsoon rains in decades. now on bbc news it's time for sportsday. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm gavin ramjaun. it's four wins from four for arsenal... the gunners back on top of the premier league this evening. on cloud nine. liverpool put on a stunning display at anfield, to blow away bournemouth and equal a premier league record.

we just wanted to have a 100% satisfying experience for us that we can use. and away from the football — a glorious day for england cricket. ben stokes inspires them to revenge over south africa in the second test. and — formula one is back from its summer break, with carlos sainz on pole — but the action at the back of the grid could be more exciting at the belgian grand prix. hello and welcome to sportsday. in the last few minutes, arsenal moved back to the top of the premier league. they welcomed fulham to the emirates in the late kick—off. but it was marco silva's side who took the shock lead in the second half, aleksandr mitrovic capitalising on gabriel's mistake

to give fulham the lead. but that lasted all of ten minutes — martin odegaard's deflected effort levelling matters before gabriel redeemed himself with two minutes remaining, scrambling home from a corner to give arsenal all three points and send them back to the top. and what a way to get the season up and running for liverpool — who are basking in the glory of a scintillating 9—0 demolition of bournemouth this afternoon. a win that equals the biggest ever victory in the premier league. jurgen klopp�*s side have had a disappointing start to the season. but this really was a statement — they set the tone early with two goals in the first five minutes at anfield. luis diaz and roberto firmino with two each. for bournemouth, the hammering was their third consecutive league defeat without scoring a goal. what that was just one element from a fantastic day in the top flight. joe lynskey is with me in the studio, with all that. but firstjoe. we'll start with that game at anfield. — and there seemed to be

a lot of doom and gloom, and negative talk around liverpool. but the fans will have a spring in their step after today?— jurgen klopp said that liverpool made what he called a false start to the season, they hadn't won coming into this game and had been beaten at old trafford. but what a response. a 9—0 win, and it equals a premier league record score line. three other matches have finished 9—0, the last time being southampton�*s defeat to manchester united in february last year which followed on from a 9—0 defeat to leicester in 2019. one of the features of this win for liverpool was how the goals were spread round the team — harvey elliott, the english teenager, scored his first premier league goal with a sweeping effort from the edge of the box. roberto firmino scored a league goal at anfield for the first time in 20 games — a run that went back to december 2020. in fact, there were six

different liverpool scorers, but none, surprisingly, for mo salah. might be bad news for a few fantasy football players, that one. it's the first time liverpool had scored nine goals since 1989 — and for their manager, it was the perfect performance. today we didn't hesitate. we fought the battles in the right areas around — the battles in the right areas around their box, in their box. we brought— around their box, in their box. we brought the — around their box, in their box. we brought the ball back in a dangerous area again. — brought the ball back in a dangerous area again, and had bodies in the box, _ area again, and had bodies in the box, so_ area again, and had bodies in the box, so that— area again, and had bodies in the box, so that is why we were very difficult — box, so that is why we were very difficult to — box, so that is why we were very difficult to play today, scored wonderful goals from all areas pretty— wonderful goals from all areas pretty much, and didn't stop, 5—0 at half-time, _ pretty much, and didn't stop, 5—0 at half—time, and how often does that happen— half—time, and how often does that happen that one team put their foot off the _ happen that one team put their foot off the gas, and we didn't want to do that, _ off the gas, and we didn't want to do that, not because we don't respect — do that, not because we don't respect bournemouth, it is the opposite _ respect bournemouth, it is the opposite. we just wanted to have a 100% _ opposite. we just wanted to have a 100% satisfying experience for us that we _ 100% satisfying experience for us

that we can use and go on from here. on the _ that we can use and go on from here. on the other— that we can use and go on from here. on the other side of this story. a sobering day for bournemouth, who are newly promoted and in their opening four games they've won once and lost three times — 4—0 to city, 3—0 to arsenal, and now 9—0 here. they do have more winnable games coming up, but this one hurt. bitterly disappointing scoreline, and i understand the challenges we face here today, and at this present time we are struggling at this present level and in this arena, but the scoreline is pretty shell shocking and in terms of players on the pitch and where we are a squad, starting players in the depth that we have, i was alarmed that goals were going and very easy, and also

probably we were trying our hardest here with an honest group of players, but we just need some help at this present moment in time. hard da for at this present moment in time. hard day for them. — at this present moment in time. hard day for them. but _ at this present moment in time. hard day for them, but let's _ at this present moment in time. hard day for them, but let's turn our attentions to champions manchester city. they started slow against crystal palace, but they turned it around. manchester city were facing what many think is their bogey team. they didn't score a goal in either fixture against crystal palace last season, and today at half—time, city were 2—0 down. they produced a stunning comeback though in the second half to win 4—2. and in a fixture they lost last season, the difference this time was one man. erling haaland, the summer signing, with a hat—trick — the 13th of his career, and he's still only 22. that now takes him to six goals in five games — he's the premier league top scorer. as for his team, theyjust refuse to be beaten. either side of the summer they've been two goals down in four games, including last week to newcastle, and on the last day of last season, when they beat villa

3—2 to win the league. in all four, including today, they haven't lost. and it is that durability which is most impressing the manager. it was a good game. top side, we always struggle against them, but we came back like we did aston villa and in the previous season we didn't have it, and now we start to do it. but it is a good lesson for us, what happened in the first half. it but it is a good lesson for us, what happened in the first half.- happened in the first half. it was a roblem happened in the first half. it was a problem for _ happened in the first half. it was a problem for me — happened in the first half. it was a problem for me and _ happened in the first half. it was a problem for me and my _ happened in the first half. it was a problem for me and my family, i happened in the first half. it was a | problem for me and my family, and they are _ problem for me and my family, and they are happy. the problem for me and my family, and they are happy-— they are happy. the first goal in front of the _ they are happy. the first goal in front of the home _ they are happy. the first goal in front of the home fans - they are happy. the first goal in front of the home fans must - they are happy. the first goal in front of the home fans must be| front of the home fans must be special, but to score three of them. yes, an amazing feeling, to score a hat-trick. _ yes, an amazing feeling, to score a hat—trick, even better feeling. yes, an amazing feeling, to score a hat—trick, even betterfeeling. it is about— hat—trick, even betterfeeling. it is about trying to continue what we

are doing — is about trying to continue what we are doing. we're almost there in the first half. _ are doing. we're almost there in the first half, and small adjustments. we did _ first half, and small adjustments. we did it. — first half, and small adjustments. we did it, and it got results, so it is about— we did it, and it got results, so it is about listening to the manager. erling _ is about listening to the manager. erling haaland, city's hero today. well, we had city, liverpool and chelsea all in action at 3 o'clock this afternoon — they're all clubs now that raheem sterling has played for. he scored twice for his new chelsea side to help them beat leciester 2—i. and for an hour of this match chelsea played with ten men. conor gallagher, the england international who's trying to force his way in as a regular at stamford bridge, sent off in the first half. but then sterling stepped forward, his first deflected over the leicester keeper. his second was a tap—in to finish a great move. leicester got one back but even with a man advantage, beaten for the third time in four games. and chelsea did this with their manager suspended and watching on from the stands.

i knew it was coming. it was a good view, and a lot of support around me. so i have this experience now, there is no need for a repetition, but we make the most of it, it was a very good view to analyse the match, but of course very unusual to not have direct contact at the sideline. well, at one point this afternoon brighton and hove albion were the team at the top of the premier league. they're now four games unbeaten to start the season, and nine games unbeaten overall in the top flight after a 1—0 win over leeds. everton just want one win. they were six minutes away from getting their first of the season today against brentford, but a late equaliser from the home side stopped frank lampard's team, who had earlier scored through anthony gordon — a player who may well be on his way out of the club. a disappointing afternoon for

everton late on on merseyside, a good day for anthony gordon, but it is the other side of merseyside, liverpool, who will remember the three o'clock kick—off the most. and triple captain gabrieljesus today. thank you very much indeed. in the lunchtime kick—off, manchester united ended their string of really poor away results. they came away with a win at southampton. two wins in a row for them now. matt graveling was watching. manchester united came to a sunny south coast looking for two league wins in a row. in their way, south coast looking for two league wins in a row. in theirway, a southampton side trying to do the same. on the visitors bench was their new £70 million man casemiro. could united finally start turning the pounds into points? 120 minutes they almost did? anthony elanga, fernandes and christian eriksen all coming close. saints manager ralph hasenhuttl has never beaten united, and half chances missed before

half—time didn't help his record. the visitors came out strongly, and after ten minutes found a breakthrough with the portuguese attack, diego gallo with a first—time cross, fernando is with a first—time cross, fernando is with a first—time finish. the celebration, a run to hug portugal's most famous player, ronaldo, still on the bench. var said no penalty. erik ten hag's side were now holding on, his defenders back pedalling to stop this bicycle kick. full—time, and three points won on the pitch, but points are still being made of it, as united fans continue to protest against the team boss mike owners. so another big win for united then — building on that victory over rivals liverpool on monday. it's a first league triumph on the road since february — their manager feels the side are rising to the challenges they're being faced with.

it has to be normal for united, you have to fight for it and know that we did that today, and that is what we did that today, and that is what we learn from the lesson at brentford. the winner against liverpool gave us a lot of belief because we know we can compete with the best team in the world, but against other teams you have to compete in the premier league, you have to fight, and we did much better than the last game against brentford once again, but now we know that, but still the start of the season has the results, and it is really tough and it is hard work, and everyone has to be conscious of that, everyone in the squad. the whole 90 minutes we tried really hard under— the whole 90 minutes we tried really hard under pressure to create chances. _ hard under pressure to create chances, and i think we had a lot in the first— chances, and i think we had a lot in the first half. — chances, and i think we had a lot in the first half, in the second half. in the first half, in the second half. in the _ the first half, in the second half. in the end — the first half, in the second half. in the end we tried a lot, but sometimes in football it is like

this. _ sometimes in football it is like this. the — sometimes in football it is like this, the ball doesn't want to go in the back— this, the ball doesn't want to go in the back of— this, the ball doesn't want to go in the back of the net, and today was one of— the back of the net, and today was one of these days. in the championship, alex neill was in the stands to watch stoke win 1—0 at blackburn. he's expected to replace michael o'neill who was sacked earlier this week. neill was given permission to speak to stoke by sunderland which is why he was absent from their game at lunchtime. sunderland were unbeaten in their two previous home games this season, butjosh sargent�*s goal with quarter of an hour to go, was enough for norwich to win 1—0 at the stadium of light. here are the rest of the scores from the championship. draws at blackpool, huddersfield, and cardiff—preston was 0—0. preston remain unbeaten — and still yet to even concede a goal. hull city are up to third after a a 3—2 win over bottom club coventry. middlesbrough have their first win of the season after beating swansea 2—i. reading have gone to the top of the table, with a 1—0 win at millwall. a victory for rotherham over birmingham edges them into fifth. watford's defeat to qpr means they are overtaken by the millers

and by burnley, who won 5—1 at wigan. rangers moved back to the top of the scottish premiership after a 4—0 win over ross county. antonio colak in the goals again, with two this afternoon at ibrox. aberdeen are up to third after hammering livingston 5—0. also wins for kilmarnock and st mirren. celtic play tomorrow, and could go back top again if they can beat dundee united. some top games across the european leagues today as well. the pick of them perhaps in italy. juventus went head—to—head with title rivals roma. jose mourinho's side were a goal behind afterjust two minutes. dusan vlahovic scoring a wonderful free—kick forjuve. but roma found an equaliser with 20 minutes remaining. tammy abraham with the header. i—i it finished in turin. england have levelled the series against south africa with a huge victory in the second test at old trafford. they were on top going into day three, and pressed home that advantage taking all ten south african wickets for just 179. our correspondentjoe wilson

was watching the action. trumpeter plays jerusalem. every new day of play for england's test cricketers is greeted by supporters like this. every new dawn whether false or true. at old trafford there was a glorious opportunity, and there was james anderson. that's how he got rid of south africa's captain. sarel erwee fell to a catch from ben foakes and then a farewell from bowler ollie robinson. that was a lingering look. soon, aiden markram was out, too. commentator: edged, gone. three wickets by lunch was decent progress, and minds were starting to imagine not if but when england would win this test match. in fact they had to wait until past four o'clock for the next breakthrough. rassie van der dussen finally gone, and ben stokes releasing some frustration. it got better.

well, that was unplayable for poor keegan petersen. remember those stamps? james anderson? and ultimately ollie robinson. south africa 179 all out, at 5.43. the series is level and next month the sides will play again. joe wilson, bbc news, old trafford. after the game, captain ben stokes spoke to test match special�*s dan norcross. i think the way that we played ourselves, both bat, balland i think the way that we played ourselves, both bat, ball and in the field, it was an incredible team performance and it sets the series up, all to play for at the oval. and up, all to play for at the oval. and it not up, all to play for at the oval. and it got quite — up, all to play for at the oval. and it got quite tricky in that middle session— it got quite tricky in that middle session as — it got quite tricky in that middle session as the ball got softer, and you tried — session as the ball got softer, and you tried a — session as the ball got softer, and you tried a lot of different bowlers and none — you tried a lot of different bowlers and none of them let you down. yes, i said, and none of them let you down. yes, i said. just — and none of them let you down. yes, i said. just keep _ and none of them let you down. yes, i said, just keep talking _ and none of them let you down. fie: i said, just keep talking to me about when the ball really looks like it's starting to reverse, because it is something that i have found over the years, when the ball is reverse swinging, i seem to be

able to get something, so that was the reason for bringing myself back to make sure that when i was going to make sure that when i was going to bowl, the ball was reversing, and also looking at the scoreboards and when the new ball was around the corner, i didn't want to have to turn tojimmy or robbo before that, because i think was obvious throughout the whole test match that it has been a new ball wicket, so i wanted to save them fresh for the new ball. abs, wanted to save them fresh for the new ball. �* ., ., , wanted to save them fresh for the new ball. . ., ., , .,, ,., new ball. a word on olly robinson, back in the — new ball. a word on olly robinson, back in the team _ new ball. a word on olly robinson, back in the team for _ new ball. a word on olly robinson, back in the team for a _ new ball. a word on olly robinson, back in the team for a first - new ball. a word on olly robinson, back in the team for a first time - new ball. a word on olly robinson, back in the team for a first time in | back in the team for a first time in a while _ back in the team for a first time in a while he — back in the team for a first time in a while. he looked really fit, his face was — a while. he looked really fit, his face was up, a magnificent addition to your— face was up, a magnificent addition to your bowling unit. yes, face was up, a magnificent addition to your bowling unit.— to your bowling unit. yes, i think it was monumental _ to your bowling unit. yes, i think it was monumental for _ to your bowling unit. yes, i think it was monumental for him. - to your bowling unit. yes, i think it was monumental for him. it i to your bowling unit. yes, i thinkl it was monumental for him. it has it was monumentalfor him. it has been a tricky six months for him with coming back from australia and the injuries that he has had, and some of the criticism he received, but what he has done to go away and work on everything that i privately spoke with him about, seeing the rewards today is really good. we all know what a fantastic bowler he is and he showed that today with his skills, and it is a great sign for

english cricket going forward. any team that has him in it is obviously going to benefit because he is such a skilful bowler, and he showed the world that he can bowl longer spells, and back those spells up as well, so chuffed for him. what spells, and back those spells up as well, so chuffed for him.— well, so chuffed for him. what a performance _ well, so chuffed for him. what a performance all _ well, so chuffed for him. what a performance all around - well, so chuffed for him. what a performance all around from - well, so chuffed for him. what a - performance all around from england there. and the cricket continues, with the all—london encounter between london spirit and the oval invincibles men currently ongoing at lord's. spirit currently 89 for five after choosing to bat. in the women's game earlier, the invincibles booked their place in the knockout rounds with a nine—wicket win over the spirit. mady villiers starring with four wickets as the spirit were bowled out forjust 80, the invincibles reaching the target with 42 balls to spare. formula one returns this weekend, and it's carlos sainz on pole for the belgian grand prix stomorrow. but it was the champion max verstappen who shone in spa qualifying today. he'll start from much further back on the grid, though, due to an engine penalty. nick parrott has more. this wasn't the bank formula 1 was

hoping to return with after the summer break. a crash on the support risk causing enough damage to leave everyone hanging around for 25 minutes before it was safe for qualifying to begin. max verstappen already knew he couldn't claim pole after being given a grid penalty for changing parts on his red bull. that didn't stop him topping the time sheets by more than half a second, but he will start from 15th. the battle behind him was won by carlos sainz who will start from pole ahead of sergio perez in the other red bull. . . , of sergio perez in the other red bull. . , , ., of sergio perez in the other red bull. ., , ,, ., , of sergio perez in the other red bull. .,, ,., of sergio perez in the other red bull. ., , ,, ., , , ., ., of sergio perez in the other red bull. ., bull. happy to be starting on pole, the position _ bull. happy to be starting on pole, the position is _ bull. happy to be starting on pole, the position is not _ bull. happy to be starting on pole, the position is not that _ bull. happy to be starting on pole, the position is not that important, | the position is not that important, and unfortunately the pace compared to red bull is nothing special, they seem to have the upper hand by quite a margin, and it is going to make ourlife a margin, and it is going to make our life tomorrow a bit more complicated, but we will give it our best shot and try to win from pole. there was no sign of improvement at mercedes, with lewis hamilton and george russell promoted to fourth

and fifth. they were around two seconds off the pace. fortunately for verstappen, title rival charles leclerc was also penalised for changing parts on his ferrari, and will start alongside him. it is changing parts on his ferrari, and will start alongside him.— will start alongside him. it is a lona will start alongside him. it is a long track _ will start alongside him. it is a long track but _ will start alongside him. it is a long track but not _ will start alongside him. it is a long track but not that - will start alongside him. it is a long track but not that many l will start alongside him. it is a i long track but not that many laps because — long track but not that many laps because of that, and there are only a few— because of that, and there are only a few overtaking possibilities, so you have — a few overtaking possibilities, so you have to do it quick and try not to lose _ you have to do it quick and try not to lose too — you have to do it quick and try not to lose too much time to the guys ahead _ to lose too much time to the guys ahead of— to lose too much time to the guys ahead of you, and we will see. i am targeting _ ahead of you, and we will see. i am targeting a — ahead of you, and we will see. i am targeting a podium, and with a bit of luck— targeting a podium, and with a bit of luck we — targeting a podium, and with a bit of luck we can fight for the win. the dutchman won from tenth last time out, and on this form he will be expected to carve his way through the field again on this form. nick parrott, bbc news. max verstappen and charles leclerc weren't the only drivers who've been punished for changing parts on their cars ahead of the belgian grand prix. there were five others, so the grid doesn't look the same as how they finished in qualifying. as we heard, carlos sainz starts from pole ahead of sergio perez. fernando alonso was the best of the rest. the spaniard is third in his first race since announcing he'll be leaving alpine for aston martin.

then there's the two mercedes. alex albon is sixth, the highest williams have been this season. daniel ricciardo, who was told this week he'll be leaving mclaren at the end of the season, will start seventh. pierre gasly is eighth, with the two aston martins completing the top ten. the back half of the grid is the most interesting place, though, with verstappen and leclerc sandwiched in the middle and mclaren's lando norris down in 18th, where he's unlikely to be for long. there was a shock result in the rugby championship. argentina beat the all blacks 25—18 in new zealand for the first time. juan martin gonzalez�*s second—half try put the pumas ahead and emiliano boffelli's six penalties helped secure a famous victory in christchruch. new zealand have now lost six of their last eight tests as the pressure continues to mount on head coach ian foster. meanwhile, australia moved back to the top of the rugby championship. with a dominant performance against world champions south africa — two tries from fraser mcreight giving the wallabies a 25—17 victory in adelaide. japan's women avenged last week's

defeat against ireland with an emphatic victory to ensure the two—test series ended in a 1—1 draw. it finished 29—10 to the japanese in tokyo. scotland's women lost to the usa 21-17. wales women play in canada later. the australian jay vine won stage eight of the vuelta a espana. it's vine's second stage win of the race. spain's marc soler came second with the estonian rein taaramae third. remco evenpoel of belgium remains the overall leader. britain's tao geoghegan hart is fifth — almost two minutes off the pace. there were delirious scenes in les gets in the french alps as france recorded a one—two—three in the men's elite downhill at the mountain bike world championships. loic bruni came first, amaury pierron was second, with their compatriot loris vergier third fastest — all of which was too much for the local crowd, who flooded onto the track. britain's tom pidcock will look to add to his impressive medal tally this year when he goes in the men's

cross country tomorrow earlier, the women's elite downhill took place and it was won by austria's valentina holl. nina hoffamn of germany was second, with myriam nicole of france third. the penultimate round of the tour championship is under way in atlanta. rory mcilroy has just teed off but is nine off the leader scottie scheffler. the masters champion has been living up to his number one world ranking and is out in front on 19—under par. xander schauffele is the closest to him, two shots back. they tee off at 8pm. it would be better to be two shots ahead, but it is just kind of head down, you know. there was a lot of golf to be played on this property. i saw a bunch of 62 and 63s on the board so ijust got to work.

it gets magnified a little bit of the tournament goes on, but like the masters _ the tournament goes on, but like the masters i _ the tournament goes on, but like the masters i put myself in a good position— masters i put myself in a good position where i was able to just go and play _ position where i was able to just go and play i— position where i was able to just go and play. ifeel like i'm still position where i was able to just go and play. i feel like i'm still in that— and play. i feel like i'm still in that position right now where if i 'ust that position right now where if i just go— that position right now where if i just go out— that position right now where if i just go out of play really good golf. — just go out of play really good golf. i— just go out of play really good golf, i should be in position in the tournament on sunday, and i want to do more _ tournament on sunday, and i want to do more of— tournament on sunday, and i want to do more of that this week. the us open starts on monday. britain's emma raducanu is the defending champion after her amazing win as an 18—year—old qualifier last year. the world number 11 faces alize cornet in the first round on tuesday and says she isn't feeling any pressure. i think you guys are probably thinking about pressure and ranking more than me, but i think that, you know, defending a title is just something that the press makes up, but i'm just taking it one match at a time, like every single player is capable in this draw, and ijust focus on what i'm doing and my own trajectory, as i said last year, i'm just going to do things my way.

in the last hour, it has been confirmed that serena and venus williams will team up to play in the women's doubles. it's the first time they have done so since the 2018 french open. the pair have won 1a grand slam doubles titles together, with serena expected to retire after the us open. and rafa nadal says he's sad that novak djokovic won't be competing at the us open. djokovic is unvaccinated, so isn't allowed into the united states for the tournament, which starts next week. nadal has won 22 grand slams — one more than the serb. it is very sad news. it's always a shame when the best players of the world are not able to play a tournament because of injuries or because of different reasons, and in this case not having the best players in history in the draw of a grand slam is always an important miss, but as i said, tough for the fans, tough the tournament, and in

my opinion tough for the players too because we want to have the best field possible. that's all from sportsday. all the reaction and analysis to today's football on the bbc sport website. we will see you soon. hello there. if you have outdoor activities planned for the rest of this bank holiday weekend, you are probably hoping for dry weather, and you would be in luck. it is looking mostly dry, a few isolated showers but they won't amount to very much. some sunny spells, but it will turn rather breezy, a brisk north—easterly wind blowing, particularly towards the southern half of england and wales. we are kept dry by this area of high pressure sitting towards the north, not a bank holiday in scotland and it is here where we are seeing a warm front pushing more

cloud cross into eastern scotland overnight. it is a lot milder than it was last night, temperature staying in double figures, and rather cloudy for northern ireland. elsewhere clear skies, temperatures ranging from ten to 1a celsius, a few early missed patches for parts of yorkshire and lincolnshire. on sunday we still have cloud across much of scotland, outbreaks of rain towards the western isles but otherwise dry, a few breaks in the cloud, more sheltered spots across northern ireland, some breaks in the cloud but generally quite a grey picture here. the best of the sunshine in england and wales, top temperatures 23 celsius, always cooler towards north see facing coasts with a small chance of a few showers at times. these showers will blow in on the north—easterly wind, our high pressure moving eastwards
