our scotland correspondentm david wallace, lockhart has been in glasgow and told us about the ongoingey are certainly not back to normal yet. the weather has really calmed down. it is quite pleasant in glasgow forjanuary this morning. the damage of those high winds that we saw on friday are still very much here. i am friday are still very much here. iam in friday are still very much here. i am in glasgow central railway station and are one of the biggest and busiest railway stations in scotland, and it would not be that busy normally on a sunday morning, but it would normally be busier than this. if we look at the departure board, we get a sense why. 20 trains are not there. the vast majority of them cancelled. three are still technically operating but they are all bus replacement services. that gives you an idea of the damage that has been done by fallen trees and debris on the tracks, that railway services are still working on. when it comes to households and power cuts, that is a picture that does seem to be continually getting better. we had an update from the scottish government

it started on lockhart street, which is temporarily closed because of budget cuts.so firefighters say it took nearly three times as long for crews from the next closest station, station 26, near 580 to get to the house. no one was home when they started, but they warn this won't be the last time the closures could affect response times. and so the city manager are gambling, and and that is a full stop. before they would close down, crews could respond to those fires in oakland around four minutes or less. >>> and several terrifying close calls as they lead them on b a wrong-way crash in san rafael. it first started on monday. after the suspect's car was flagged by a license plate reader. police say the suspect would try to ram officers, then took off. they picked up the chase on highway 101, where the suspect was driving in the wrong direction. they backed off the chase for safety reasons. >>> a patrol cruiser would swipe the suspect's car, causing it to smash into another one. chp immediately gets out and tells the driver to get down on the ground. they have their

the red weather alert for parts of scotland has now come into effect — david wallace lockhart is in glasgowe i am certainly the wind is starting to pick up at the moment in glasgow. it is sometimes not too bad but then occasionally you are getting quite a big gust that moves you about a bit and there have been winds of over 70 mph recorded in scotland. like i say, not until ten o'clock does the red warning come into effect. you can see behind me some of the trees are straining. we have a sheltered spot here next to a building and we are by the river clyde. when there is a spurt to see the big spurts of water going over the top of it and the bushes in the far side really bending in the wind, giving you a sense of what is to come. obviously there has already been disruption here. this red warning is going to cover the central belt of scotland and beyond. that will be including glasgow and edinburgh where the majority of scots live. the vast majority of schools in the country are going to be closed. there is transport disruption already, no scotrail trains running, no ferries going to the isla

how confident can people obtain foreign governments who lockhart and imposing sanctions be that the city and administration is going to be able to meet those conditions in order for the sanctions to be lifted? and i think some actors are more dubious than others. some are very reluctant, i think, for instance, the incoming us administration would be far more reluctant to use tensions, especially on at the heavy, the shown as a terrace organization. i think at the u. m. a bowl. so there will be reluctant is from others you in countries, for instance, china fluid. i believe you have pose using any sanctions on h t. s. unless there are meaningful concessions from, from them and, and promises. and that is primarily because of the presence of weaker fighters in the ranks all pay at the shop. i think some other countries are less reluctant in part because of their own interests. for instance, european governments know for a fact that economic recovery is absolutely necessary for the return of refugees and to them at the moment they deal with syria, primarily through the lens of refugees. now t
