| | BBC South Today's Today's weather presenter does get out of the studio occasionally to present the forecast from sedate locations like Cowes Week or Goodwood. But on Thursday, she presented the forecast live from onboard a moving roller coaster - thought to be a world first in broadcasting. She was on 'The Cobra', a new ride at Paultons Park in the New Forest. During the forecast, it reached speeds of 47 km per hour and pulled 3Gs at certain points. Find out how she got on and what the weather will be like for the weekend: | | | last updated: 09/06/06 | | Have Your Say | | |
