If you're heading out to catch a glimpse of the planes over Sheffield as part of this morning's fly-past, there are plenty of places to see them.

We're expecting a mix of both US and UK aircraft, including an F-15E fighter jet, Typhoons, Ospreys and a Dakota.

It's thought they will fly over in a staggered formation because of airspace restrictions, so hopefully it won't be a "blink-and-you'll-miss-it" moment.

Flying from the south east, they're going to be following the red line above.

The main action will happen over Endcliffe Park near the city centre at 08:45.

Potential viewers are asked to arrive using public transport or on foot by 07:15 as it's expected to be very busy, but we'll keep you updated on events here and hope to bring you a live video feed too.

There is no car parking near the park, so if you haven't already arrived, you might be out of luck.

The council also recommends vantage points like Bolehills Park, Park Hill flats, Skye Edge playing fields and the Botanical Gardens.

BBC Weather

Today will be a dry and bright day with any early localised mist or fog clearing to leave plenty of hazy sunshine.

After a cool start, it will become very mild again. Gentle southerly winds.

There's lots of activity already this morning at Endcliffe Park in Sheffield.

A fly-past is due to take place later to mark the 75th anniversary of a fatal plane crash.

The US bomber - a B-17 Flying Fortress known as Mi Amigo - came down in Endcliffe Park in 1944, killing all 10 airmen on board.

It comes after a successful campaign led by BBC Breakfast presenter Dan Walker to get a fly-past to mark the anniversary.

The BBC Outside Broadcast teams began work yesterday, and this morning they were busy working to get the final cables plugged in as BBC Breakfast came on air.

There's also a lot of activity from South Yorkshire Police too, who are busy securing the site.

Sheffield City Council are out in force too and I think we can all recognise that pretty familiar red sofa.

You can follow our live coverage of the event here.

Children are getting the chance to improve their language skills at a half-term football camp in Hull which is being coached in Polish.

The camp is aimed at young players from Polish-speaking families to help them improve both their football and communication skills.

Former North Ferriby player Michal Pudjak, who's behind the scheme, says he hopes to get them to the point where they can "go on and join grassroots teams" in the area.

People in York and North Yorkshire should see a "significant" improvement to the way they're policed by April next year, according to the Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner.

Julia Mulligan made the commitment after she pushed through an increase of 10% in her share of the council tax.

It means householders in North Yorkshire will see an average increase of £23 on their yearly bills for the police and fire service.

She says the increase will mean an extra 50 police officers and 20 PCSOs and will also help tackle the growing threat of cyber crime.

Meanwhile, Mrs Mulligan failed to be automatically re-selected to be the Conservative candidate for her post after her current term ends in 2020.

In a routine re-selection meeting in Tadcaster last night she didn't to get the backing of enough Conservative party members to stand uncontested.

Wakefield secure their first Super League win of 2019 as they score three tries to beat Catalans Dragons.

Colin Moneypenny said he made his way from crowded terraces at Hillsborough after pressure eased.

Part of the funding will be use to recruit 40 new social workers at Bradford City Council.

Libby Squire's parents describe the search for their missing daughter as an "unending torture".

With thousands of people expected to descend on Sheffield's Endcliffe Park on Friday for a very special fly-past, what's the weather going to be like?

BBC Look North's Paul Hudson has the answer:

Work to install new safety barriers along the eastbound verge of the A63 in East Yorkshire gets under way tonight.

The £1m scheme to upgrade the barriers began on the westbound side last month.

The improvements, between North Cave and South Cave, will see a full closure of the A63 eastbound overnight from 20:00 this evening until 06:00 tomorrow morning.

Diversions will be in place.

If you're heading to the Endcliffe Park fly-past in Sheffield on Friday, expect crowds, a bit of waiting around and - hopefully - some decent weather.

The fly-past will mark the anniversary of a fatal crash of a US B-17 Flying Fortress at the park in 1944 which killed 10 American airmen.

Thousands of people are expected to make the trip to Endcliffe Park which means traffic around the area will be very busy.

Sheffield City Council is asking people not to drive as there won't be any parking available.

Instead, bus services will drop people off at the park gates, with free travel for members of the armed forces and veterans with valid ID cards.

People are asked to arrive in good time, at about 07:15, to get their spot for the show on the open field in Endcliffe Park.

It looks like the weather for tomorrow will be dry too, with temperatures at about 11C (52F).

The 21-year-old was last seen at about 00:05 on 1 February near her student home in Hull.

Ms Squire's parents, Lisa and Russ, have released a new message today: "It’s been three weeks now since our beautiful girl was last seen.

"Since then it has been a time of unending torture for her friends and family, but we all have unending hope that she will be found."

Police looking for Ms Squire still want to speak to four people seen on CCTV near where the Hull student went missing.

One man continues to remain under investigation while enquiries continue, police say.

The bears looked at home as five tons of donated ice melted into the grass under them.

The group "absolutely loved playing around in the ice", a park spokesperson said.

Police have arrested four teenagers in Hull after a pursuit involving a car believed to have been driven by a 16-year-old boy.

Police say the vehicle failed to stop on Massey Street just before 01:00 and was followed by officers through the streets of the city.

Humberside Police arrested a 16-year-old boy on suspicion of failing to stop, dangerous driving and theft of a motor vehicle.

A male, 18, and two females, aged 18 and 19, were also arrested on suspicion of theft following the incident.

All four remain in custody, police say.

This is the moment a stolen lorry careered into the side of a house last September after running down and killing a woman in Barnsley.

Four men were jailed today for the death of Jacqueline Wileman, who died after she was struck by the vehicle in Brierley on 14 September.

After hitting mother-of-two Mrs Wileman, the lorry smashed into the side of a nearby house, partially destroying the building:
