Youve been catching up with sophia as well and theres a chance that perhaps she could defend her title . I think she could be inspired and she was interested when i spoke to her and how she felt when she drove into carnoustie, she got her own Parking Spaces defending champion and her own special lockers on the changing room. It over and above that, just constant reminders of what was one of the great Sporting Stories Of Last year when ranked 300 for The World, she came forward to win by two shots, it was a very unexpected victory but it was a great fairy tale, someone who overcame the debilitating effects of Lyme Disease and realised her potential and now going forward, she can look forward to a debut in europe and defending this crown here At Carnoustie.

So far this week, the Weather Story has been dominated by cloud. Its been a rather grey start, hasnt it, really . And through this afternoon, The Cloud was thick enough at times to produce a little bit of Light Drizzle in places. This was cumbria earlier on. There was also some sunshine be found, though, across eastern scotland, to the east of england and down just to the north of london as well. We had a few breaks in The Cloud from time to time. Now, The Cloud will continue to fill in as we go through the evening as well, and once again along exposed west facing coasts, itll be thick enough for a spot or two of drizzle. Could be quite misty as well across the hills. Temperatures are holding up, though, staying into double digits first thing for thursday morning. So, once again, we start off with a cloudy story. There will be some breaks and some sunshine coming through northern ireland. You can see a slice just moving across the east of the pennines Before yet more cloud arrives and some showery outbreaks of Rain Push in from the west. So, a really messy story to try and pinpoint down for tomorrow, and again, those temperatures are going to be disappointing. Friday looks a slightly quieter day. Yes, i know theres a Weather Front pushing in from the west, and it will gradually bring outbreaks of rain. But ahead of it, it looks likely to be dry. Therell be some around, the Winds Swinging to a southerly ahead of that Weather Front, will also drive in slightly milder air. So, with the sunshine, we could see temperatures peaking at 23 or 24 degrees thats 75 fahrenheit. And in fact, were going to continue to import some heat from the near continent. Not the extreme heat from the mediterranean, but ahead of this Weather Front, we will continue to see some increasing warmth. However, this Weather Front is going to bring some heavy rain as well. So, as we head towards the weekend, it looks likely to be quite a warm story, but also quite wet at times, possibly even with some sharp, thundery downpours. So, Eastern England on saturday seeing the best of the sunshine, the best of the weather. Our Weather Front is going to take its time to arrive in from the west, some of that rain will be heavy from time to time. Its only 18 or 19 degrees here, but we could see highs of 26 degrees thats into the high 70s fahrenheit. The Frontal System will slowly start to ease away on sunday, leaving some thundery showers behind. Brightening up a little in the west, though, from monday. Hello, im ros atkins.
