even in the city centres below freezing. but it's into the countryside we're seeing temperatures in minus double digits. temperatures have risen, though, to start the day across in northern ireland, and that's because we've got cloud spilling in here ahead of what will be a wet and windy day for a fairfew. the sunshine giving way to the cloud, the rain, and also some hill snow. the hill snow is happening because our weather system, these weather fronts pushing their way eastwards, will be pushing into that cold air, which is sitting in place at the moment. plenty of sunshine across central and eastern areas to start the day. but through the morning commute, outbreaks of rain, a little bit of hill sleet in northern ireland spreads its way into western parts of northern england and wales, turning readily to snow in the scottish hills, also in the lake district and the pennines, giving a covering of snow in places, and all being blown around by strong—to—gale force winds touching 60—70mph across some western areas. some p

the cathedral has come and the city has come since the bombing in the second world war. it is really trying to celebrate coventry as a city in many ways. with the performance taking place in both the old and new cathedrals. i think it will sort of be a reflection of who the people are, which is a resilient people, they have faced destruction and war and yet rebuilt and come back stronger. coventry cathedral was consecrated by the queen in 1962. to mark its opening, benjamin britten composed his war requiem, now seen as a modern masterpiece. among the huge choir that night was fraser watts from coventry, one of the youngest performers, aged just 16. it was a hugely memorable experience for me, i was hugely privileged to be taking part in the first performance of this piece of music and also it was so apt for this occasion and for coventry. just like war requiem, 60 years ago, ghosts in the ruins features local singers as part of the performance, including the choir with no name for people affected by homelessness. it is really important, it is bringing people together fro
