hurricane ian? absolutely, although it's been downgraded to a tropical storm ida it was one of the most powerful to hit florida ranked it's not finished with its damage. there is still rain to fall in florida and as you can see it's very extensive, the rain heading into northern florida and into georgia and the carolinas so again a lot of storm surge potentially here, five or six feet, nearly two metres and several hundred millimetres of rain forecast for other states in the usa in the south—east in the next couple of days. close to our shores nothing quite as stormy but we do have our first autumnal gale is coming quite widely tomorrow with some wet weather as well, so quiet today in contrast, we've got few wish i was around, more sunshine. the wind, that chilly northerly wind, starting to ease a bit so in the sunshine away from the showers, 16—17 feels quite pleasant, we are still in september after all but it is all change. not tonight necessarily in the south and east, temperatures will dip away and it will feel

chilly once again, one of the faces of autumn, but already the other face of autumn, wind and rain, galloping into northern ireland and scotland by the end of the night. we also have to watch for a little bit of fog in this further south first thing tomorrow, a concern if you are travelling, it lasts through the rush hour but it will eventually be swept away. wind and heavy rain, gale force winds, gusts of 60—70 miles an hour pushing the rain out of the way quite quickly for the north and west and it will eventually arrive after early brightness across the south and south—east before sunset. temperatures on a par with today because it's a relatively mild direction but it's a strong wind, gales quite widely in the north and west and through the english channel as well. eventually the system is blown out of the way tomorrow night and then we have a westerly wind as we begin the weekend, so it won't be as chilly in the south and overnight tomorrow night, a milder night but plenty of showers, a real rash of

them coming in on the westerly wind driven by low pressure to the north all weekend. this is the fly in the ointment, how much rain from it, how much wind and how far north will it come? those are the questions that will be keeping as occupied and it might be because the weather is close to the south it will dampen down shower activity so most of the heavy showers will fall across the north and west on the brisk north—westerly wind, not as windy tomorrow but still blustery and relatively mild, and then into saturday night you can see the potential for some saturday night you can see the potentialfor some rain saturday night you can see the potential for some rain to come potentialfor some rain to come into england and wales, possibly some strong winds as well with showers following for sunday. ly a reminder of our top story... the prime minister has been defending last week's mini budget saying difficult decisions had to be made. that's all from the bbc news at one. it's goodbye from me. on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s news teams where you are.

liz truss was making a gruelling round of bbc local radio interviews this morning in which she pretty much sidestepped all the questions about whether the market chaos of the last few days was a consequence of the government's mini budget statement on friday. let's listen to some clips from those interviews. first up, radio kent where the presenter was pretty blunt about the views of her listeners. lots from my listeners this morning. carrie says what and elsewhere you thinking —— what on earth were you thinking? another says, how can we ever trust the conservatives with the economy again? lydia says, are you ashamed of what you've done? are you? we you ashamed of what you've done? are ou? ~ . ., you ashamed of what you've done? are ou? ~ ., ., , ., you? we have to remember what situation this _ you? we have to remember what situation this country _ you? we have to remember what situation this country was - you? we have to remember what situation this country was facing, | situation this country was facing, we were going into the winter with people expected to face fuel bills of up to £6,000, huge rates of inflation. �* , ., �* ., ., ,

constantly returned to the statement that the government has worked quickly to ease the cost of energy for families around the country. here she is speaking to bbc tees. the government has taken decisive action to help families and businesses with their energy bills this winter and we've also taken decisive action to get the economy growing and get britain moving stock thatis growing and get britain moving stock that is what, ultimately, will help all of us pay our bills. but that is what, ultimately, will help all of us pay our bills.— all of us pay our bills. but what kind of decisive _ all of us pay our bills. but what kind of decisive action? - all of us pay our bills. but what kind of decisive action? your. kind of decisive action? your decisive action so far has knocked 40% off of people's pensions so what decisive action are we talking about? ~ . m decisive action are we talking about? ~ . ., ., about? we are facing a global economic— about? we are facing a global economic crisis _ about? we are facing a global economic crisis following - about? we are facing a global. economic crisis following putin's war in ukraine and what i'm about is making sure that british people are protected from that. first of all by supporting them with energy bills and the biggest part of our package on friday was the energy price

bristol. a whole series of interviews. if you want to listen to them all, they have been collated and bbc sounds. earlier, my colleague annita mcveigh, spoke to the shadow chief secretary to the treasury pat mcfadden, who had this to say about the prime minister's decision to double down on her economic plans. this was a reckless act of choice, which has wreaked havoc in financial markets, beginning with a sharp drop in the value of the pound, which makes our imports more expensive. then going into the mortgage market, which you have been discussing, where hundreds of products have been withdrawn and the price of others has increased sharply. and yesterday, we had the extraordinary intervention from the bank of england to stop major pension funds from going off a cliff. so the recklessness of the government's announcements on friday have unleashed chaos in the financial markets and it's really important now that we try to get some

stability back into those markets and in the longer term, restore the economic credibility of the country because what's happened in recent days has been very, very damaging and many people will be particularly worried about how they are going to afford new mortgage payments if they are coming off a two—year or a five—year deal anytime soon. the government insists and liz truss did eight interviews this morning on bbc local radio over the course of an hour and she said it was time to do something different, to take bold action to really grow the economy. now clearly this is a turbulent time but do you think there is the potential to come out the other side of this with growth? well, growth is the right question and it's one we have been posing. but when i listened to the chancellor on friday and when i listened to the prime minister today talking about doubling down and sticking with it,

you have to ask, in the face of what's happened, what's more important here, the prime minister and the chance of a saving face or saving the mortgage payments of millions of people across the country? this is going to have a real and damaging impact, where payments could go up hundreds or thousands of pounds per year. so they've got to reconsider this. they've got to pause and think about what they've done. this is, unlike previous financial crises which have been a consequence of global events, this was self—imposed. it was an act of choice by the prime minister and the chancellor to do this and it's thoroughly irresponsible to go around the radio studios today and for her to say we are going to double down. because all that will mean is she is asking the rest of the country to pay the consequences for their mistakes. labour and other parties have asked for a recall of parliament to discuss this. we have been told this morning by the government that they are sticking with the november the 23rd date before we hear what any independent

forecasts of their plans will be. what can labour do at the moment to try to — you're clearly unhappy with this — to try to effect change, if you have to wait until november the 23rd for that obr report, if parliament isn't recalled from motion recess, what else are you going to do? well, the obr report and the publication of some independent assessment of what they've done is really important, because it speaks to this issue of institutional stability. britain has traditionally been regarded as a good and safe home for investment. but when you have ministers who the first act they do is to fire the permanent secretary at the treasury, they then enter a policy field where they're at direct opposite ends from the bank of england and forcing the bank

of england to raise interest rates and mortgage rates more sharply and faster than they would have done, and you won't even allow your own independent office of budget response ability to produce a verdict on all of this, that sends out a terrible signal of uncertainty to investors who can choose many different countries of where they want to invest. and they are asking, is britain still the good and safe bet that it has been in the past? and the actions of the government are calling that into question. that's why what they are doing is so irresponsible and what's really important now is to restore stability to the markets in the short term and credibility to the country in the longer term. the shadow chief secretary to the treasury speaking there. i want to take you to florida. we can see a podium where we will be hearing from the governor of florida in the next few minutes, we think, ron desantis

who will be talking about the impact of hurricane ian en florida's gulf coast. there is a search on going for missing people and a lot of disruption, a lot of coastal areas in particular submerged by flood water and a lot of damage done to buildings. we'll be getting an update from the governor of florida very shortly and we will bring that to your life as soon as he appears. —— we will bring that to you live. before that, let's look at some of the story is making the news around the story is making the news around the uk. a firefighter has opened up to bbc look east about the huge pressures of the job and the effect on his mental health and his colleagues. this morning, tom was one of a group of firefighters setting off on a 100 mile, four day walk in full kit with breathing

apparatus to raise money for the charity mind. he does tom's story in his own words. —— here is tom's story. we've begun to work a lot closer without our emergency —— with our other emergency service colleagues around crisis, particularly people taking their own lives, and we will support the police or ambulance service in supporting those people. we have kind of become exposed to a greater depth of tragic incidents.

ido i do remember two or three years ago i do remember two or three years ago i had a little dip, i suppose you would call it, only for a couple of weeks but it was quite frightening and i didn't really know what was happening. i suppose i didn't know what i could do about it. mas happening. i suppose i didn't know what i could do about it.— happening. i suppose i didn't know what i could do about it. was at the “ob? -- what i could do about it. was at the job? -- was— what i could do about it. was at the job? -- was it— what i could do about it. was at the job? -- was it the _ what i could do about it. was at the job? -- was it the job? _ what i could do about it. was at the job? -- was it the job? possibly, i what i could do about it. was at the job? -- was it the job? possibly, it| job? -- was it the “ob? possibly, it miaht job? -- was it the “ob? possibly, it might have _ job? -- was it the “ob? possibly, it might have been — job? -- was it the job? possibly, it might have been a _ job? -- was it the job? possibly, it might have been a combination - job? -- was it the job? possibly, it might have been a combination ofl might have been a combination of things but luckily it didn't last. but it was frightening. mental health goes beyond us. it can affect our family and the wider community and everyonejust needs our family and the wider community and everyone just needs to be aware of it and be there for each other. as a society, as a community, it's so important that we pull together through difficult times. i remember

an officer saying to me once, he didn't put that person and that fire, he didn't put that person in that car crash or in the river, you are just there to help and if the outcome of that is tragic, it's not necessarily your fault. just a reminder, tom is one of a group of firefighters setting out on a 100 mile, four day walk in full kit with breathing apparatus. if you're suffering from chronic pain, you might expect your gp to prescribe strong pain killers. so how would you react if they also prescribed an afternoon's fishing? ms angling and education in burnley provides fishing therapy sessions for people referred to them by medical professionals. it was established by a man who, himself found angling helped when he experienced his own mental health issues as dave guest reports. for thousands, angling is an enjoyable pastime, but for paul it's so much more. sat there in the middle of nature, your worries go.

paul's suffered from chronic pain for years. he says a few hours on the water's edge actually brings respite from that pain and the depression which often accompanies it. i start to relax and enjoy myself and that's when your pain goes away because it's always about fooling your brain into thinking you're not in pain. in fact, it was paul's gp who suggested he renew an acquaintance with angling, which had long lain dormant. people with chronic pain can often benefit from engagement the coastguard have been so so good in terms of what has happened so soon as that storm passed in the small hours of the morning, first responders from the local state and federal level descended on southwest florida, the coastguard has been performing rescue missions on the

barrier islands consistently since the small hours of the morning. we have florida guard assets on the ground participating in efforts and we have our usar teams who got going while the winds were going and they are performing rescue efforts starting with barrier islands but looking at places that had the most inland flooding in these operations. in total, there are 28 large, mostly black guard and chinook helicopters performing missions and there will be more air assets brought in as the day goes on. we've also been working with hospitals overnight, we've been on generator power, we've been in the process of evacuating to health care facilities to safer locations

in the north and are bringing more medical personnel into the area. as of 6am we have 2.02 million reported power outages but outside of southwest florida we might have additional or —— additional outages. there are 1.5 million outages in seven southwest florida counties. lee and charlotte are basically off the grid at this point. sarasota has 250,000 without power, hillsborough 222,000, similar in other areas. the charlotte and leigh reconnects are likely going to have to be rebuilt in terms of infrastructure, it's going to be more than reconnecting a power line back to a pole. it will

be assessed as the day goes on but we do have huge amounts of resources that are en route and we are going to want to get people's power on as quickly as possible. we've also had interruptions in communications as a result of the storm, particularly in southwest florida. we have 100 portable cell towers being deployed into the area which will be put up onceit into the area which will be put up once it is safe to do so. staff on the ground are making sure the roads and interstates are open. alligator alley is open, traffic is flowing, i75 is open and flowing through charlotte county. portions of lee county they are

looking at we hope to continue moving supplies into the area. we have 100 engineers on site to do bridge inspections and they work in teams of two as they assess the damage and they can ensure safety and bridges can be safely reopened. we do have reports of structural damages in bridges such as the bridge going on to sanibel island and there are other bridges that have suffered damage but once they are determined to be safe after inspection, they will be reopened as soon as possible but we know sanibel causeway and pine island bridge are not passable and will require structural rebuilds. right now, if

you look in central florida, you are looking at potential major flooding in orange and seminal counties, st johns river all the way into northeast florida and jacksonville. the amount of water that has been rising and will continue to rise today even as the storm is passing is basically a 500 year flood event and i know seminal county has done evacuations and has shelters but we will see a lot of images about the destruction done in southwest florida and we have massive assets there. people need to understand, there. people need to understand, the storm is having huge impacts across the state and some of the flooding you're going to see in areas, hundreds of miles from where this made landfall, i going to set records and that's going to obviously be things that will need to be responded to. we have massive amounts of food and water in the area. we will probably have close to

300 truckloads of food and water in the area today. fortunately, most of our school districts will be able to reopen on friday or monday. lee county is in a difficult situation. charlotte, we are going to work with them and see when they can get back to their feet but the damage has been so extensive that it is a very difficult situation. we have received a major disaster declaration for nine counties but we do expect more. i spoke with the president this morning and he offered support. i thanked him for this but because of the store moving inland and causing a lot of potential damage in the centre part of our state, we were going to be asking for those county to be expanded and included, but for now we have approvalfor expanded and included, but for now we have approval for charlotte and other areas including lee and sarasota which will allow individual floridians to seek individual assistance from fema. people are

displaced because of hurricane ian so that will be necessary. we've been granted federal assistance, category a and b to move forward into this response and recovery situation. fema has activated individual assistance for those in need of help that qualify. you can go to the fema website or call their number. make sure you take a picture of the water line in your home because if you can show that, they are able to get assistance to you faster. people have merged this morning in the areas hard hit, understand this is still a hazardous situation. those people who are in there in the small hours of the warning were taking big risks as first responders navigating this. you have power lines that are down,

you have trees
