We're forecast a chilly night and there could be more rain tomorrow.

Here's your forecast:

Burglars have raided AFC Bridgnorth football club and taken cash, a lottery machine and a large amount of beer, wine and spirits.

The club's chairman, Mark Weale, said they'd "lost the lot" and had to go out today to restock the bar for a 40th birthday party tonight - a cost he said they could "ill afford".

Mr Weale said: "We're an amateur football club who are run by volunteers, so we don't have substantial income over what we take over the bar."

He said security cameras didn't show any vehicle, but the burglars must have had a vehicle to transport the drinks.

Tony Sutton is on duty for West Midlands Ambulance Service tonight in Stoke-on-Trent and said: "What really gets me is I'm there with somebody. I'm babysitting a 19 to 25-year-old where potentially there's a poorly child out there in Stoke who needs me."

The NHS pays for a five-bed "intoxication unit" in the city, for people to sleep off the effects of alcohol, if paramedics decide they are too drunk to safely go home by themselves.
