time for a look at the weather. what a change! i'm going to start with a game of spot the difference. this picture came from a weather watcher in cumbria on saturday and this is the same scene today. the snow has been replaced by a big puddle. the thaw has really taken place. 16 degrees there on the north coast of wales, and lots of other places not far behind. almost all of us in double digits, but there was quite a lot of rain in association with that and there are some flood warnings in force in central parts of scotland and southern england. tomorrow, we are going to see something of a change. some slightly cooler air working in from the west. it's not going to be as mild as it has been today for the rest of the week but equally not nearly as cold as it was. tonight, some further unwanted rain to come across central and southern parts of england. that
10:32 pm
sliding it, staying mild in the south—east, but a bit chillier further north and west. that said, most places will avoid a first. tomorrow, some of this cloud and rain lingering in east anglia and south—east england first thing but it will clear and then a day of sunny spells and showers, most of the showers in northern ireland and western scotland. it will be windy in the north—west, but most of the showers falling as rain away from the highest ground in scotland. seven to 13 degrees is a bit above where we should be at this time of year. wednesday will bring more outbreaks of rain to be replaced by sunshine and showers once again for the some of those showers will be wintry over high ground, mainly falling as rain. seven to 11 degrees. it's going to stay broadly mild for the end of the week into the christmas period but there are signs of something a bit colder getting to northern parts of the country. but still not as cold as it was. and that's bbc news at ten on monday the 19th of december.
10:33 pm
there's more analysis of the day's main stories on our website, as now it's time to join our colleagues across the nations and regions for the news where you are. hello, welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are deputy political editor of the daily mail, harriet line, and feature writer for the i paper, james rampton. first, a quick look at tomorrow because my front pages. many of them dominated by the wave of straits. the express leads with the strikes in the health service with a message from a union leader saying, talk to us, they don't want to break the bank. the metro also leads on the nhs with the story of a mother who confronted the health secretary about the delays in

10:43 pm
important to stress that government is still saying if you are very unwell, the ducal 999 or 111 —— then do call. it'sjust unwell, the ducal 999 or 111 —— then do call. it's just perhaps not the level that would be normal. james, let's go back to the ft very briefly. this is talking about the potential of six months of strikes. why is the government not sorting this out, do you think? i’m why is the government not sorting this out, do you think?— this out, do you think? i'm totally baffled by the _ this out, do you think? i'm totally baffled by the apparent _ baffled by the apparent intransigence on this. the ft, which is normally— intransigence on this. the ft, which is normally pretty neutral on these matters. _ is normally pretty neutral on these matters. is — is normally pretty neutral on these matters, is it saying this is the biggest — matters, is it saying this is the biggest threat that the pm faces at the moment. suggesting the public is largely— the moment. suggesting the public is largely supportive of these strikes by workers in the nhs and a former minister. _ by workers in the nhs and a former minister, tori minister is quoted, "it minister, tori minister is quoted, "it wouldn't — minister, tori minister is quoted, "it wouldn't surprise me if that chaos— "it wouldn't surprise me if that chaos in— "it wouldn't surprise me if that chaos in the nhs reaches fever pitch

10:45 pm
next year's nhs pay rounds. the government is still refusing to reopen this year's. 19% is unaffordable, but whether there could be some kind of beating the minds of next settlement might be a way for websites to get with their want. —— both sides. let's move on and talk about the daily telegraph front page. this is talking about the prospect of the economy in the uk. it's been impacted by a large number of people in their 50s taking early retirement during the pandemic, and that basically has had an impact on the number of working age people who are earning a living, paying taxes and having an impact on economic
