On This Day: in 1918, the German Fleet was surrendered to Britain at its northern naval base at Scapa Flow, at the end of World War I. That led to the entire German submarine fleet surrendering to Admiral Reginald Tyrwhitt, who escorted them in the Stour estuary where nearly 150 U-boats were moored up at Shotley and Harwich.

Careful on the Strand mid morning and late on tonight.

Mild and generally dry and cloudy, although some limited brighter spells may occur. Occasional drizzle is possible at times, this more likely as cloud thickens in the north and west this evening. Maximum Temperature 13c, low of 9c.

Open for now but check updates with Road closures.

There are more planes in the sea than submarines in the sky.

Joke of the day:

They're built with sub-standard materials.
