really sorry and we feel so sorry and sad and frustrated. the strike action will inevitably have an impact on the number of ambulances out on the number of ambulances out on the street. but managers and unions have been planning how to keep the service going for the most essential calls. the response _ the most essential calls. the response will _ the most essential calls. the response will be _ the most essential calls. tie: response will be different appearance during industrial attraction as during normal activity. this is a dispute between the trade union membership and the government and not with the service. it is about appreciating an understanding that. it is our responsibility to make sure we can do need to provide help follows that a friend. for many the decision _ follows that a friend. for many the decision to _ follows that a friend. for many the decision to strike - follows that a friend. for many the decision to strike has - follows that a friend. for many the decision to strike has not l the decision to strike has not been easy. concern about the care offered to patient now balance against the impact strike could have. — those threatened. l strike could have. - those threatened.— threatened. i never ever thought _ threatened. i never ever thought we _ threatened. i never ever thought we would - threatened. i never ever thought we would strike | threatened. i never ever i thought we would strike as nurses. the decision to actually go out on strike is a very, very difficult but it has

on turkey which is updating all the time. we have heard from the time. we have heard from the united states who are saying that they are assessing the situation and ready to supply aid. i will be back with the top business stories here next. hello. the weekend was a tale of two halves. we had a weather front with us, and a lot of cloud on saturday, mild atlantic air. sunday brought high pressure with us and clearer skies. now that high pressure stays with us for much of the week, but round the periphery of it, towards the north, as you can see, we'll see, well, cloudier skies at times of weather, windier weather, as well, midweek, but for the most part, that high pressure keeps the weather fronts at bay, particularly in the south, where temperatures are falling away. a little bit of mist and fog, as we head towards morning and around for the rush hour, but with a bit more cloud creeping in across the west of scotland and northern ireland, more limited our frost here. not for eastern scotland, and a much colder start for england and wales, —3, —a in rural areas and some ice

to scrape off the car. but the fog should lift fairly readily, and it looks like we'll have less high cloud around compared with sunday. so bright blue skies, but more limited brightness and sunshine for northern ireland and western scotland. after the frosty start in the east, though, we could see some sunshine lifting till ten across parts of scotland, ten in belfast. that's a little bit above average. further south, about average. now then, as we go through monday evening and overnight, this weather front starts to take shape across scotland and northern ireland, so, again, limiting ourfrost here, but not in the south. again, a cold night, —3 out in the sticks across countryside areas. for tuesday, therefore, probably more fog in southern areas, and slower to clear, and it could stay grey and cold for much of the day in some parts. then we've got that weak

weather front slipping down across northern ireland and northern england, but brightening skies follow across scotland. so i actually think more sunshine for the northwest of scotland, compared with monday. then, as we go into wednesday, those tightly packed isobars arrive, our weather front as well. we could have a spell of severe gale force winds towards the north, later on wednesday, wednesday afternoon onwards, and it will bring with it, then, wednesday night in particular, a spell of quite significant rain, hill snow. but further south, hopefully a bit more breeze just to lift that fog, less issues around, but certainly the prospect of some more in southern areas, where the winds are a little bit lighter, and again, a frosty start. so as we move into the latter part of the week, we've got that chance of some rain in the north, but the high pressure ruling the roost further south. so i think the main point about this week is that it's going to be largely dry, away from scotland in particular, but there'll be some frost and fog in the mornings

and chillierfor a time on thursday.
