Topic: Christmas/New Year weather and events
Enquiry
I am working on a story today about the weather we are expecting over Christmas and New Years and was hoping to get some questions away to you about this:
1. If the weather turns to rain over New Years eve, will the council have any additional plans in place to ensure the New Year night market is able to go ahead?
2. Are there any events over the Christmas period that are rejoicing due to current forecasted good weather?
3. Any other comments you wish to provide on this topic?
Response
Reporter was informed that the New Year night market will be weather dependent, as per normal.
In case of bad weather people should keep an eye on the market Facebook page to check if it is going ahead.
We suggested contacting the organisers of Good Vibes as they will be very pleased if they have good weather for their event and will likely be pleased to provide comment to that effect.
