Hello, its Peter here. I hope you had a good weekend, despite the weather. Welcome to the start of another week of Levy Letters.
It was a wet weekend and its a wet start to the week too. On tonight's programme, we'll be reporting after twenty four hours of rain, which has brought severe flooding to large parts of our region. Throughout the day, our reporters will be out and about in the region finding the stories from where you are. We'll be getting the latest after the River Ludd in Louth burst its banks, learning about the clean up operation in progress as homes are flooded in Lincoln and Hull and finding out which schools in the region are closed. Of course, well have the all important weather forecast to see if the rain is due to stay for much longer. Plus well be getting the latest from the emergency services, finding out what it means for transport on our roads. For the very latest on the bad weather today, tune in tonight on BBC Look North at half past six. And for updates throughout the day today, tune into BBC Radio Humberside on 95.9FM or BBC Radio Lincolnshire on 94.9FM. And during the day, if you encounter some severe flooding in your area or learn about problems in your area due to the heavy rain, then think of us first. Get in touch straightaway to our producer today on 01482 314501. Or email in to [EMAIL PROTECTED] And if you see a dramatic picture to take of the awful weather, then grab your camera, or your video camera and take those shots and email them in to us too. Humber Bridge Half Marathon Thanks to everyone, who came out to support the Humber Bridge Half Marathon yesterday and congratulations to everyone, who ran in the Fun Run. A lot of money was made for charity and Paul and I so enjoyed meeting so many people who turned out and the weather stayed dry until the afternoon. So thank goodness for that! Louis Factor I wrote earlier in the year that Simon Cowell has dropped Louis from the X Factor. Well it seems that they cant cope without him and now hes asking Louis to come back on to the show to replace Brian Friedman. It appears that the current arrangement isnt working too well. This is all according to stories in the papers that I read at the weekend. Graham Norton Grahams current series on a Thursday night has had several people writing to me moaning that its a bit crude at times, but you cant please everyone. Whats interesting is that his show is on for half an hour at 10pm on Thursday nights. But on Sunday nights, they have a longer uncut ruder version. What is so difficult to get your head round is that the uncut version is on a Sunday night and actually starts earlier than the Thursday one! I wonder what the producers were thinking when they commissioned that! Thats all from me. Join me tonight on BBC One at half past six. Take care in these floods. And get in touch as soon as you can with our producers if you hear or see a story near you. Take care, Peter And for the latest news and more where you live, go to: http://bbc.co.uk/humber and http://bbc.co.uk/lincolnshire ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the BBC Look North newsletter, go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/england/looknorthhull/newsletter/newsletter_index.shtml, enter your email address in the unsubscribe box. 1.94.4
