With clouds sinking south to begin with on saturday morning we mightjust start off with double digits, but that means it is going to be a cloudy start across the midlands, stretching down into south wales with outbreaks of light showery rain. that will push its way into the south and east during the afternoon. sunny spells, blustery showers, particularly across north and west facing coasts, so stuck in a rut. and again, those temperatures, similar values to what we ve seen all week, 11 to 1a celsius in the north, perhaps 17 or 18 in the south and east. don t expect that much in the way of significant change as we move into sunday. again, the wind direction, in fact, strengthening. more showers to come. high pressure is desperately trying to build, but it is going to keep us waiting, so no significant change for the second half of the weekend either. best of the sunshine likely for england and wales.
Before we go, though. i do have to ask you a question it seems like a local story but it is not. kathy hochul, new york governor stepped in, dove in from the top row to put a halt on this congestion pricing here in new york city. this is extorted to me because it sounds like a local story but politico is reporting that there may be some democrats and congress saying you have to step in here, because some of our seats are on the line. do you believe this is the case? absolutely. is about time. new york is the reason i, hakeem jeffries is not the speaker today, the democrats have control of the house. it is because we failed to win seats in the suburb of long island and north of the bronx and the hudson valley. throughout the rest of the country, democrats were winning. the reason why democrats lost in new york is because we had local policies that were not in

We failed to win seats in the suburbs of long island and north of the bronx and westchester and hudson valley. through the rest of the country democrats were winning. so the reason why democrats lost in new york is because we had local policies that were not in line with the mainstream and democrats up and down the ballot suffered. so thank god kathy hochul got the message that if she did not reverse this policy, people were going to express their outrage at this policy at the ballot box and they were going to reject democrats up and down the line. this is good. she is listening to voters. a democratic process right before us and this is why democrats are going to win. max, thank you. amanda, sorry we had to give a little bit extra time to going local. when we return we will
