That's all from me this week but we'll have more news, travel, sport and weather from across Lincolnshire from 08:00 on Monday.

Until then I'll leave you with five things we've learned today:

• Three people have been bailed in an ongoing investigation into mustard gas near Woodhall Spa
• Meanwhile, water sample tests at a lake being searched in connection have come back clean
• Lincolnshire MPs have come out in support of the PM after rumbles of a leadership challenge
• The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight's Lancaster flew over Lincoln on its last tour of the season
• And it's war between two Lincolnshire 1940s festivals after a date clash

It'll stay dry this evening, but cloud will thicken through the night as rain spreads in from the west, accompanied by a freshening breeze.

The minimum temperature will be about 10C (50F).

Tomorrow will be cloudy and damp for much of the morning, but it will become drier during the afternoon with some bright spells developing:

It was a rather lovely Lincolnshire morning earlier today, even though it was greyer later on.

This picture from BBC Weather Watcher FennySky sums that up perfectly.

It shows off why Lincolnshire is a beautiful county to live in:

Water samples taken from a Stixwould lake as part of an investigation into the discovery of mustard gas canisters in nearby woodland have come back clean.

The samples were taken to a lab for testing yesterday by helicopter. Even though no trace of the deadly chemical agent was found in the water, a Royal Navy bomb disposal team remains at the site.

Two men and a woman arrested over the past few days on suspicion of possessing a noxious substance have been bailed by police.

Supt Phil Vickers says it's expected that the investigation will continue into the weekend at the lake and the site of the original canister discovery in Roughton Moor woods.

A Lincolnshire police officer who was sacked for drink-driving is back at work just over a month after her dismissal.

Rebecca Stevenson, 33, from Louth, crashed her car in July while driving barefoot in her dressing gown.

She was found to be twice the legal alcohol limit when she lost control of her car and crashed into a ditch in the village of Saltfleet.

A police disciplinary hearing in August dismissed her for gross misconduct.

She is now working as a civilian investigator at her former station.

Lincolnshire Police says it decided to re-hire Ms Flanagan because what she'd done was "exceptional and rare".

It's the last day of the flying season today for the RAF Coningsby-based Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (BBMF), and its crews have been marking it with a Lancaster flypast over Lincoln and nearby villages.

I happened to spot it during my lunch break:

A rather dismal effort I'm sure you'll agree. Luckily Matt Smart was equipped with something far better than my smartphone and caught the action on camera:

He even managed to snap the Lanc over Tattershall Castle:

You really put me to shame there, Matt...

Can anyone beat that? Well, maybe Tim Dunlop who's the Bomber Leader at the BBMF:

As we told you earlier, investigators are currently searching a lake in the village of Stixwould for containers of mustard gas.

Three people arrested in connection with the discovery of mustard gas canisters in a nearby wood have been bailed by police after being arrested earlier this week on suspicion of possession of a noxious substance.

This footage of the scene at the lake, as recorded by a new force drone, has been released by Lincolnshire Police:

The A17 is still partially blocked in Gedney.

We can now confirm that there has been a crash there involving a car and a motorbike.

As you may expect, traffic is still backed up around the area so do avoid it if you can.

There are currently about 530 people who give their time and expertise to Lincolnshire Police for free, but a new campaign's asking more people to come forward to volunteer to help their local force.

Roles include Special Constables, cadets and volunteer PCSOs.

Jackie Rowe, Lincolnshire Police's Volunteer Coordinator, says volunteers play an important part and denies accusations from the local Police Federation that the force has become overreliant on them:

Two people needed treatment for minor burns and respiratory problems after finding the canisters.

A former conservative party chairman calling for Theresa May to step aside as Prime Minister is dominating much of the national headlines today.

Grant Shapps says he has the backing of around 30 MPs in a bid to bring about a leadership contest but it appears that the MP for Gainsborough, Sir Edward Leigh isn't one of them.

He say's he's firmly behind the Prime Minister and that a leadership contest would be disastrous for the country:

He's not the only Lincolnshire MP to come out in support of the embattled Prime Minister.

Matt Warman the MP for Skegness and the MP for Grantham and Stamford have both posted their support on social media:

The leader of North Lincolnshire Council has defended plans to build new homes and sport facilities just outside of Scunthorpe.

The authority wants to buy a 500-acre plot, called Vale Farm, near the Forest Pines Hotel.

It's thought the development could create 250 jobs.

The plans have been criticised by opposition Labour group who say they've been kept in the dark.

But Conservative council leader Rob Waltham (pictured) has accused the Labour party of jeopardising the plans, saying publicly questioning the proposals was "reckless and irresponsible".

Traffic is currently reported to be queuing on the A17 Main Road in both directions around Churchgate, Gedney.

It looks as though there's been a crash there, so avoid the area if possible.

A decision by organisers of the Woodhall Spa 1940s festival to move the event to an earlier weekend has been criticised by the people behind the nearby Thorpe Camp 1940s Festival as the events now clash.

Next year, Woodhall Spa's event will be held between 7-8 July - a weekend earlier than usual - much to the consternation of the Thorpe Camp Festival which is due to be held less than three miles away and on the same weekend.

Andy Hunter, chairman of the Woodhall Spa Festival, says he hopes the two groups can work together:

But John Haywood, chairman of the Thorpe Camp Festival, says he doesn't have high hopes for an alliance:

We're now in the fifth day of an investigation into the discovery of mustard gas canisters near Woodhall Spa, with the police, army and navy all now involved.

Let's take a look back at what we know so far:

• On Sunday, police cordoned off an area in Roughton Moor woods after the discovery of what they thought was an unexploded World War Two device
• It was confirmed on Tuesday that the items were, in fact, mustard gas canisters, a weapon used in World War One
• It also emerged that the discovery had been made by two people digging for bottles, both of whom were treated in hospital for minor burns and respiratory problems
• The area of discovery used to be home to an RAF station and an army base. Investigators are working on the assumption the canisters have been there since the sites closed in the 1960

• Police announced the first arrest on Wednesday, with two more following. All those arrested were held under suspicion of possession of a noxious substance. They have since been released on bail

• A house in Lincoln was raided on Wednesday night by officers wearing gas masks and a house in Woodhall Spa was raided yesterday afternoon. Nothing was found
• Only low background levels of mustard gas were detected at the Roughton Moor site and police do not believe there is a wide contamination problem
• The investigation was widened on Thursday to include a lake at Stixwould, with a Royal Navy bomb squad now working at the site
• Water samples from the lake were taken by police helicopter to a lab for examination and police say they believe any canisters found will have been dumped recently

Investigators looking for more canisters of mustard gas at a lake near Woodhall Spa say if any are found they will have been moved there recently.

It comes after three people arrested in connection with the discovery of mustard gas canisters in a nearby wood have been bailed by police after being arrested earlier this week on suspicion of possession of a noxious substance.

Yesterday, police investigating the original mustard gas find at Roughton Moor widened their search to include a lake near the village of Stixwould.

Water samples from the lake have been taken via police helicopter to a lab, it's not yet been confirmed if it contains traces of the deadly chemical agent:

The original mustard gas find at Roughton Moor wood is believed to be a leftover from when an RAF station and military base stood there.

However, Supt Phil Vickers says police don't believe any discovery in the lake will be historical:

Plans to build 140 new affordable homes and a sporting facility on the outskirts of Scunthorpe are causing a bit of a stir.

North East Lincolnshire Council wants to buy a 500-acre plot, called Vale Farm, near the Forest Pines Hotel.

It's thought the development could create 250 jobs.

However, the plans haven't gone down too well with the Labour group. The leader, Len Foster, says the cost of the land is huge, and developments should be built on land the council is selling in the centre of Scunthorpe.
