and they come from darren.warnings in southern england and more rain to come and we saw snow melting of course understood has been a covering of snow across some parts of scotland, especially in the hills, but with a milder weather over the snow—covered ground it has been foggy. temperatures 255 oh figures into the evening across many parts of scotland and further south will be mild. still windy and a strong south and south westerly winds and may be gusting gale force in the irish sea coast and hills. those wins will tend to ease overnight and we will see clear spells developing a cross does northern half of the uk before showers arrive in the north—west. england and wales will have another speu england and wales will have another spell of rain and it could be heavy for a while and it will push its way to eastern parts of england keeping temperatures of double figures. further north with clear skies it will be cold with temperatures of three or a degrees. sunshine on the way for many of us tomorrow and we have

. >> thanks, darren. >>> 2022 has been a brutal year according to one website. workers laid off since the start of the year, with many companies announcing hiring freezes. but, one area that businesses in that sector say will always be in need, software sales. shawn chitnis shows us that impact it had on one bay area family. >> reporter: john costa cherishes every minute he gets with his two-year-old daughter, kyra. it is one of the many benefits of his new career as a tech sales representative. a life he cannot imagine when graduating college just two years ago with a baby on the way. >> i did not see any other way out. >> reporter: he and his girlfriend were living in san francisco and knew they had to move out of the city to afford the child. he worked as a shipping company driver, even though that job took a toll on his mental health. >> it takes a toll on your days off and that will affect the once around you. >> reporter: enjoying his daughter's arrival ended quickly for him, only getting four days off before having to go back to work. >> i did not get to

and darren peck is here to tell us more. >>> yes, we have a fantastic weekend for the holiday. blue sky and loaded with 60s, except for the fact that it looks like this. that's the scene from downtown back towards levi stadium today. the air quality is unhealthy for sensitive groups at times. here's the forecast for tomorrow. another spare the air day. the primary culprit is the fireplaces and wood burning is really contributing to the majority of that. by the time we get to monday night, there's a significant storm coming our way. in fact, tuesday is a first alert weather day. from monday night through tuesday afternoon, we'll pick up two to three inches of rain. the storm out of the pacific, that's the one right there, will be fueled by a powerful atmospheric river. that's typically when you get the most impressive storms of the winter. this will be one of them. we'll look at it in detail in the full forecast. >>> now a live look at all three bay area airports. travel a big story this weekend, or lack of travel as the winter storms hit the rest of the country. the impacts rip

something to keep but now darren keep an eye on, but now darren mccaffrey. for joining mccaffrey. you for joining us well let's go us this morning. well let's go back to john mcternan has back now to john mcternan has been patiently waiting while we fix this connection because looking at where the government stands on this question of strike it is interesting to see this widening gulfs appearing between public perception of those within the nhs are going on strike versus perhaps those in the railways . on strike versus perhaps those in the railways. might on strike versus perhaps those in the railways . might that on strike versus perhaps those in the railways. might that lead to a different response from the government in either issue ? the government in either issue? the government are trying to give a different response, aren't there? the trenches, you know, introduce legislation on minimum service standards in the railways and the sort of threatening, but maybe not in the health service. and i suspect the rail strike is getting to is end game because different unions are comin

our meteorologist, darren peck is here. i guess it is a good thing you have too much water and have to release it. >> we planned for this. this is a good example of why sometimes the reservoir levels are not as high as people would like. they are obligated because of situations like this. you have got to make sure you have room in them. first off, how are we doing? we're going to look at this in two ways. how much weight have we gotten over the last two days where we live. about an inch and a half in santa rosa. but here is where the story becomes a little more clear. how much weight have we got in the hills around the bay area just in the last two days? downhill from that, mill valley has actually gotten two inches. sugar no ridge, two and a quarter. almost three inches. diablo, almost two. and berkeley hills, that is actually a gauge i was using out of uc berkeley, almost an inch and a half. it is the hills where the majority of the runoff needs to flow through. that is why we have the flood watch for tomorrow. if you loo

all right, so darren peck is in. you've had a busy night my >> willraier and hours so prud let me show you why tomorrow is the first alert day. all that stuff reed showed you is not factored in as part of the main event. we are getting rain. but watch how the nature of this changes the next few hours as we approach midnight, we start to see an organized line. and if we take a look at the big picture, and take that and play it forward into the predawn hours things look a little more impressive. the brighter the shade of color, the heavier the rain. that is a steady flow from the art of the atmospheric river pointed at us. the analogy that works well is a hose. played right at the bay. it is going right over the heart of the east bay. then, it gets down to the south bay but doesn't get there until the late morning early afternoon. that is the most impressive part of this three-day period. we will probably get another inch-and-a-half on average. so, there is a flood watch i want to talk to you about what that means and,

this morning, as our political editor darren mccaffrey. good morning , darren. good morning. morning, darren. good morning. so we are expecting to hear from keir starmer just after ten away. it seems this report may be a continuation of the new labour legacy . we're going to labour legacy. we're going to hear from the labour leader at just after ten clock. so in about 30 minutes time, emily . about 30 minutes time, emily. you're right. interestingly, labour or in some ways tried to portray this this morning as a continuation of some the constitution reforms that we saw under tony blair. that involves getting rid of most of reg gp as an ice lords . the supreme court, an ice lords. the supreme court, for example while keir starmer is all going to effectively is that there's too much power westminster when you look at other comparable countries powers which would devolved to the nations and the regions and that's what he is going to argue through this report written by gordon brown. remember him, of course, another former labour prime minister he's been working on

all right, vern, over to you. >>> actually, and you'll notice darren didn't say the storm door is open, but it's what i would have said. good news for san francisco's struggling mid-market area. ikea scheduled to open next year on market between 5th and 6th. da lin reports that a lot of business owners and neighbors believe it will help revitalize and clean up that part of town. >> reporter: the sign doesn't say when they're going to open, but we understand it's going to be in the fall of 2023. so by this time next year, you should be able to walk out with brand new furniture. ikea will anchor this multistory shopping mall. at around 80,000 square feet, it's smaller than the typical ikea stores. it's about a third of the emoryville ikea. >> even though it's smaller, it's still furniture i can by. from the will heusthe cr. neighbsathere's a lot of open drug use and drug dealing on 6th street and spills over to market street. this restaurant owner agrees. his restaurant is right across the street from the new ikea >> it will make everything clean and more people come. >> reporter: even t

darren was in florida. he's on the republican line. ron, go ahead. >> yes. my name is darren. i live in florida. i am for her show walker. we have to get that seat for the republicans in the senate so we can moderate. we need him to win. it is very important. people don't think this is a crucial place, it is a crucial race. warnock is making a stand. i just hope people don't fall for this time. i didn't like when he ran over his wife. whatever happened there. he always seems like you must work across the aisle, he never does. i want everyone to know that we want walker. >> that is from darren in florida. let's hear from john in new york city. hello. >> hello. >> hi. >> how are you doing? you are doing a good job. you're one of my favorites. i want to bring this abortion thing to the clergy new so-called christians. i want to stay a few statements and then hang out. this is gonna be assured. this is not my statement. i want to quote from the bible. these jesus died to give everybody the opportunity to choose right from wrong. ministers say it is wrong to have abortion. jesus ga

darren lewis talking to us from doha, qatar.ren, thank you so much. >> thank you, laila. >>> and we are now joined by sports journalist keir rad niche. he has covered every world cup since 1966 and was there when the tragic scene unfolded. thank you for joining us. keir, i understand you witnessed what happened. can you describe what you saw? >> well, i was sitting near -- across the gangway from where grant was. this was towards the end of extra time in the match. suddenly colleagues up to my left started shouting for medical assistance. obviously someone had collapsed. because the chairs are free-standing, people were able to move the chairs, so it was possible to create a little bit of space around him. and i have to say the medical team -- you know, this is an 80,000 capacity stadium. the medical team were there pretty quickly and, you know, were able to, as best they could, give treatment, and it was, i suppose they were there working with him for about 20, 25 minutes before he was removed to hospital. >> as far as you coul

so, darren, we'll have more rain on the way, but will the rain hinder fireworks? >> it will be gone and there will be a nice neat clear back edge to this whole thing when it comes through. you will see it by sunset tomorrow. you will get clear skies. the fireworks, new year's eve plans are fine. it is between now and sunset and 10:00 tomorrow morning when we have the main issues from the storm. you can see the light showers we have been showing you with live pictures so far this whole newscast. here is how it will get different. in the overnight hours. we look at this as the top of the newscast. just another replay. we will pull out more detail when you can see when the heaviest rain comes through. here is 5:30. your strongest wind, you will get 40 miles per hour wind gusts. this is the kind of thing that can wake you up when it comes through. between 3:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. if is not the rain, it could be the wind. by the time we good morning to 10:30 tomorrow, north bay is done. and we continue to move that through the rest of the south bay and it will clear out

mercifully, darren's daughter survived, but sadly, many do not. information request paints a worrying picture. in the whole of 2020, west midlands ambulance service had just one patient who was dead by the time the ambulance turned up following a delay. so far this year, up until september, the total is 37. and that is with three months�* data still to come. as we've heard repeatedly, one of the big problems is ambulances being stuck outside hospitals, unable to hand over patients. over a single day, newsnight journalists monitored ambulances at five hospitals covered by west midlands ambulance service to see just how bad the problem is right now. on the day we recorded data, the longest an ambulance had to wait to hand over a patient was; at worcester royal, 21 hours; at princess royal hospital in telford, 19 hours; at alexandra hospital in redditch, 8 hours; at royal stoke, 15 hours; and at royal shrewsbury, more than 20 hours. problems at the ambulance trust go far deeper than just delays. the number of serious incidents defined as an avoidable

i mean, darren, how do you process this news? >> well, don, my thoughts are with his wife and his loved ones. and the instinctive reaction is very similar to what you have been saying, that he died doing what we've been doing over the past three weeks, working to the same kind of schedule that we've been working to over the past three weeks and as you rightly said, as leila has been saying he was much loved, he was respected, he was highly regarded, and so it is very difficult at this present time to process this news that he had gone to a game and will not now come home. >> yeah, let's just bring you up a quote from the major league soccer commission, who spoke of his kind and caring nature, and he described his passion for soccer, and his dedication to journalism is immeasurable. we both knew grant as somebody who was an amazing sports writer, not just in soccer, but his reporting was fearless, one of my favorite stories about him was back in 2011, just a few months after the decision was made to award this world cup to qatar,

but we'll have to see over the next few days. 0ur weather presenter darren bett told me more.ica, not just the us that is affected, also canada. there is over 200 million people in the us, 60% of the country, underwent a severe weather warnings. we have been watching this for the past couple of days, taking back to wednesday in northern parts of the us, and wyoming resort temperatures and four hours drop 25 degrees. this cold day has reached the deep south and florida, so air here, we're seeing power outages in texas also georgia. it is being dragged down by this deep storm, this winter storm, called now a bomb cyclone. that'sjust this winter storm, called now a bomb cyclone. that's just essentially the pressure dropping very quickly in a short space of time, but that has dragged down this desperately cold. it is also bringing strong wind, those are particularly dangerous, multiple hazards across north america over the next couple of days. america over the next couple of da s. ~ ., ., america over the next couple of da 5. ~ . ., , america over the next couple of das. ., , , da

darren peck is with us tonight.o >> yes, and wel dis the freeze warning in the first alert forecast. but right now, since this was such a beneficial storm, it's worth taking a moment and a quick look back at how it came together and where it rained the most. you can put it on a map and visualize it with a color code. if you look at the shades of red, you see a pattern. we got the most rain through the santa cruz mountains and over towards the central sierra. that's where the atmospheric river was saturday. if you look at the sierra, that's the river water shed that's important for san francisco. that's the equivalent of about nine inches of water there. of course, it's not water, it's seven feet of snow. but back at home, how was the rain where we live? shades of green and yellow for the communities we live in. about an inch and a quarter to inch and a half. look at the san francisco number. 1.35. we measure the water year starting on october 1st. we had good rain in early november, so how are we doing so far for th

joining us now for more of the timeline of the storm is meteorologist darren. you t mep car? >> not necessarily as prepared as you think the city like this, but if you take a look at what is going on now on first alert doppler, we are already seeing the leading edge of this. but that is all this is. we got about a 10th of an inch of rain in the last 30 minutes. and it does look good on first alert doppler. when i put into high-resolution futurecast, it sees the light showers that we've got now, and it shows us how this is just a small little preview. things are going to quiet down a little bit as we go to the later part tonight, before we get into the overnight hours. then, watch what happens up here. we are going to see a bigger band of heavy rain show up by the time we get to 11:00 and midnight. that is the main event. that is was going to march its way across the entire bay with widespread, steady, heavy rain. and we will have a few isolated thunderstorms . if we posit right on this frame, that is kind of like prime time. 3:30 in the morning to about 5:00. that is when we

good to see you, darren. so champions france through and up next they face the cinderella story of the competition. >> yes, they do. as you've been saying, they are the first african country to reach the semifinal of the most prestigious competition in world football. they are the first arab nation, they are the first muslim country. so as you can imagine a lot of joy around the world, millions of people celebrating their arrival at the last four. the big thing about mr. corocco they love dee is fending, have only conceded one goal so far in this competition. ever since cameroon and you even go back to morocco in 1986 they kind of suggested that the african nations could make an impact on the world stage, but what you have now is five countries that came into the competition with african coaches, players that had gone on to lead their countries, understand the talent and grasp just what moments like this mean to their countries, to their people. it is a wonderful opportunity now for morocco to do what nobody

let's go back to darren in doha. obviously, grant wahl was very widely respected as a journalist in the sports world. and you have a lot of reaction pouring in from legends. >> reporter: absolutely, amara. their has been a huge tidal wave of reaction this morning not least from somebody that grant wahl brought to the world attention on the front cover of "sports illustrated" magazine. it was a 17-year-old lebron james. this is what he has had to say. >> he was always pretty cool to be around. spent a lot of time in my hometown of akron before that cover story came out. i've always kind of watched from a distance. anywhere time his name came back, i will always think back to me as a teenager having grant in the building. it's a tragic loss. it's unfortunate. and to lose someone as great as he was. >> reporter: absolutely. and i would add my own feeling to that. as a young man, he was an inspiration to me. he was an inspiration to millions. and you will continue to see as the day wears on adding that to their sent thes

harrison last may the pilot of the small plane suffered a catastrophic cardiac event leaving darrenect, yes. at that point i knew if i didn't react that we would die. and so, i reached over his body, because he is at this point unresponsive, and i grab the controls of the airplane and slowly started to pull back on the stick and turn. >> reporter: how did you know how to do that >> just common sense, i guess, being on airplanes. >> reporter: that's a miracle right there. >> that's the scariest part of the story. >> reporter: a story far from over darren, who had no flying experience and no gps, still had to land the plane. >> did it cross your mind that you wouldn't try >> no. no. >> reporter: with the help of an air traffic controller on the ground, darren landed safely his first call to his wife brittney, who was pregnant with their first child. >> did you think about your little girl? >> one the first things that went through my mind i can't die today. i have a baby on the way. >> reporter: a new life arrived three months after darren defied death. >> maryhart came into the world

here is first alert weather meteorologist darren peck, tracking those conditions. >> on doppler radar, you can see we are done, the storm just barely left. there might still be a shoe few leftover showers if we come in for a closer look. in terms of the actual rain we have seen it, and we will get about a day and a half of a break before the next system comes in. so you can see where the exiting showers are now. i doubt any of that is reaching the ground down in santa clara valley. here's how we did. i will show you our totals in a second. first, i want you to see the red there, in humboldt county. 6 1/2 inches of rain in the last 24 hours. we didn't get that much here, but we got almost 3 in santa rosa. and we got them stacked in order of impressiveness. so enjoy the next day and a half it on thursday, the rain comes back. and, there is a more significant storm, thursday's rain will be light. saturday storm looks like it could be more impressive. we will go into all that detail coming up in the complete first alert weather forecast, reed be back to you. >>> crews in san ramon are wor

my apologies to meteorologist darren peck. i got so excited about one guy getting his luggage back i jumped the line. >> that's okay. we are just starting on the rented we got about half an inch of rain today, so you don't want to downplay that. this is the very beginning. it looks good out at sfo. if we put on the totals it's about half an inch of rain in general for the total of locations out here. but the bigger picture shows us the light showers that are still coming on shore. call it 3/10 for the city, but we have about half an inch in canfield. there is a flood watch in effect on friday that does not expire, until saturday night. that tells you when things will get more impressive. it is going to rain more today, it will rain more on friday. you can see how this will play out over the next few hours. we will put thatto e re nigh be reke that on friday, but it really is saturday when we get into the real impressive part of this storm. so we are going to look at that in more detail and talk about new year's eve day and a l

. >> first alert meteorologist darren peck.ill be snow early on and then a little bit of rain? >> this is weird, the way the storm will interact with the sierra. look at the futurecast. snowing now as we saw , that is 6000 feet so we will get oriented, there is i-80. tahoe over here, you can see these branch out from sacramento. rain for most of the drive, but for now there's ice , showing where the snow was falling at 6000 feet. tomorrow, the storm gets warmer and the white disappears friday afternoon and it will be rain to the top of the mountains. raining up to 7000 feet or more. all the beautiful snow will get rain and it will not be pretty. it will be easier to drive on the mountains, that was basically for the second half of friday where we get good facilitation mostly rain and then it comes as snow saturday morning with cold air filtering in and watch the white showing up. throughout the day saturday it is marching down the mountain. there will be snow at the end of the storm , but a lot of rain first. back here at home

they are not out of the woods. >> darren peck reporting. >>> time for a first look with paul heggen.at fog is remaining e week before e stubborn christmas, but we are going to see more sunshine in between those clouds. the possibility of a few showers in for a closer look at that in just a moment as when the clock forward, no huge changes to the big picture pattern in other systems for the bay area is going to be aiming quite a bit of moisture towards the pacific northwest. our next chance of significant rain looks like it will be about seven or eight days in the future and probably a week from tomorrow. there is a possibility of a couple of showers north of the golden gate, but you don't see anything as the sun comes up. more of a mix of clouds and sunshine on tuesday as opposed to the gray skies we have seen today. futurecast thinks the best shower will be tuesday afternoon and hit or miss activity. if you get some showers, it will not be much more than a trace of precipitation. same thing tomorrow night into early wednesday. most of it is to the south and it will fall apart. mostl

darren lewis in doha. darren, it's hard to overstate how important wahl was in the world of u.s. soccer and a respected sports journalist across the world. before we talk about his career, let's talk about the man. he was known as kind and generous. you knew him. what was he like? >> reporter: oh, fesgrant, his e and loved ones. there is a sense of disbelief here in doha, kim. football very much irrelevant to the death of somebody who i see, and i think many people see, as an icon in the sport of football and the world of journalism. he was a great man. he was somebody who was kind, compassionate. he had a word for everybody, whether you were a young journalist coming through, whether you were somebody who had his level of experience. he helped to bring many people into the world of journalism. he was a passionate advocate for the sport of u.s. football and for many people on both sides "the atlantic" he was the prephraoer jourpremier when it to supporting the causes. i can't believe i'm talking about the

darren. actually one who recently busted a student for using this chatbot to write an essay. if you're able to catch it, how hard can it be to figure out if it's a bot or a real person. >> it depends on the level of material we're talking about. if my case it was an upper-level philosophy class, and chat gpt doesn't have the sophistication to deal with some obscure topics, but an intro class, it coulded it would have been harder. >> if you're a teacher, how can people even prove that it was a bot that wrote the essay? >> that's the hard part. i have, you know, the instincts i've build over the past 15 years of teaching, that says this paper wasn't written about this student. that fine. in more traditional forms of plagiarism, copy, pasting stuff, i can go and find additional proof, evidence, that i can bring into a board hearing. in this case, there's nothing out there that i can point to and say here is the material they took. it's more of a problem where students would pay somebody or get s

so, here to answer all of it is darren peck in the bay area, goodness. >> it got cold enough for snow to get under, and a lot of those have peaks around the bay area, just enough higher than that. santa claus is doing his job. >> even better we are sitting at 300% of average for this point in the year for the sierra, we will talk more about that in the newscast, let's talk about what rain was like, where the majority of us live, san jose had an inch of rain over the last several days, four inches, san francisco picked up an inch and a quarter, and if we look at the state as a whole and colorcode the map, for the last three days, this is the storm in its entirety, look at the key up here, into those shades of red and white in the sierra, the equivalent of eight inches fell, that came as snow in the home, when you look at the totals you can see a lot of yellow on here showing you many places at three inches and 5 to 6 inches the santa cruz mountains really got hit the hardest, with the biggest rainfall totals, but we are done now if we take a look at first alert doppler live, there is s

but i did have to because it's darren aronofsky >> seth: it's darren aronofsky, he's very particularis day and age is that something where you have to like, film yourself, or - >> it was very difficult with the baby, because i couldn't use my non-mommy voice with her. so whenever i would try to do the audition tape i'd use my deeper adult voice and she would start crying, and so you'd hear this crying baby in the background [ light laughter ] and we managed to get one clean take, and that was the one that we sent off. >> seth: yeah, 'cause based on the clip i don't think that scene would have the same power if you were using a mommy voice. [ laughter ] >> very, very different. >> seth: and what about the holidays are you -- do you guys have plans? are you excited? >> um, i'm just ready to rest, i feel like i've been really busy working. i just wrapped up a movie in new orleans, which is my hometown, so i was very excited to do that >> seth: is there added pressure when you're working in your hometown do you have to, like, then manage your family and friends >> well, no, it's more abo

first alert meteorologist darren peck is here. mother nature is knocking. >> reporter: it's really saturday morning that is the most impressive part. i know the rain has been pretty good and the pictures of it to look impressive but it's saturday morning. that is why we have issued a first alert day specifically for that day. this is what the rain looks like now on first alert doppler and this is what we got just today. we have already gotten three quarters of an inch of rain. it's days like this overnight. if we look at the future casted picks up on the rain we have now. a few showers here and there on and off again. then we get to tomorrow . a few more brakes on friday but the rain on friday will come down in heavier bursts. the rain that does come will start to pick up in intensity and then we get to saturday morning and you see how that looks different right here. you see the structure to that? there's that hose pointed out into the pacific right there. that is the atmospheric river. that's what they look like when you visuali

mercifully, darren�*s daughter survived, but sadly, many do not.f information request paints a worrying picture. in the whole of 2020, west midlands ambulance service had just one patient who was dead by the time the ambulance turned up following a delay. so far this year, up until september, the total is 37. and that is with three months' data still to come. as we've heard repeatedly, one of the big problems is ambulances being stuck outside hospitals, unable to hand over patients. over a single day, newsnight journalists monitored ambulances at five hospitals covered by west midlands ambulance service to see just how bad the problem is right now. on the day we recorded data, the longest an ambulance had to wait to hand over a patient was; at worcester royal, 21 hours; at princess royal hospital in telford, 19 hours; at alexandra hospital in redditch, 8 hours; at royal stoke, 15 hours; and at royal shrewsbury, more than 20 hours. problems at the ambulance trust go far deeper than just delays. the number of serious incidents defined as an avoidable

darren well, if faced today?ing that he said to date , that it's likely he's to date, that it's likely he's going to dig his heel in over these strikes . last couple of these strikes. last couple of minutes, we've got a new round of strikes by rail workers . 50 of strikes by rail workers. 50 different companies are all walking out on the 5th of january. it is clear we are frankly in a very deep dive of industrial action . so my point industrial action. so my point is the winter of discontent . is the winter of discontent. we've got nurses out on strike today. powermat kicks tomorrow . today. powermat kicks tomorrow. we're looking at border force guards going out over christmas in the new year , which will in the new year, which will almost certainly likely cause disruptions to people flying to and from for christmas the new yeah and from for christmas the new year. and it goes on and on. and there is no end in sight, all of this. so it's maybe no surprise that it was discussed in cabinet this morning. it will be,

darren peck is checking conditions, when we will see all of the rain, and i think it is going t happenn. >> at, is already starting . it is already raining outside now. we see light showers coming , there are three phases to this. the first one is tonight , the most important one is the third one on saturday. saturday is th day we have got a first alert date issued, you see that in th seven-day forecast , that is th day we make sure you are prepared for , we have a lot coming our way. but before, thi is live doppler now, if you light showers showing up after their, see it? futurecast sees it, light rain overnight. not much. this is a little better. that this thursday evening rain this is kind of the first space falling into the first part, w looked at it at the top of the newscast, thursday is a half an inch of rain, pretty manageable friday brings the second phase let's play forward into friday and things look different. that is a much bigger blob of green and yellow . of them heavier rain, were white-spread, this brings bigger totals , friday focused a little more in the northbay tha

. >> it is coming again but darren has the details. >> tomorrow's rain will be different from today and you can see why when you look at first alert doppler. that was today's rain. that is the cold front. that well organized line of steady heavy rain at times. that is the leading edge of the storm. it gets windy when that comes through. and, you also get perhaps an occasional thunderstorm fixed in with that. that line of thunderstorms has cleared santa clara valley. it has moved to san bonino county. over half-moon bay, skyline boulevard. it extends across the peninsula toward the east bay. that is a good example of what happens now for the next 24 hours. scattered, isolated, on again off again. popup showers. some of them can come with brief downpours but we are not going to see a repeat of today like we had for our first alert weather day where it was the most impressive rain. i will show you how this plays out and we will look at this. >> thank you darren. >>> a relaxing birthday weekend took a bit of a turn when the tree crashed the party by falling through the roof. four homes were

darren bett is here.ixture of weather across the country, some areas of southern england have been a struggle to lift the mist and low cloud and it's a bit colder. some cloudy skies as you head further north across the uk into scotland and also northern ireland. here it somewhat mild because we've got more of a southerly breeze but across england and wales there is no breeze to mix things up and it's quite grey, gloomy and cold where we keep the mist and fog and low cloud particularly in the midlands and because there is no breeze we will find that fog thickening up again particularly across east wales, west midlands and the west country. further north that low cloud across northern england and scotland producing a bit of light rain or drizzle and sitting on the hills keeping temperatures up here but in england and wales with the cloud coming and going, fog coming and going, you will find temperatures close to freezing. tomorrow could see some brightness and sunshine for a while across northern ireland, s
