Oxfordshire Live: Wednesday 11 January

BBC weather presenter Alexis Green says there is a "great deal of uncertainty" over the chance of snow in the south tomorrow.

She says: "We have all the ingredients for snow - intense rain, cold air from the north and the right wind direction.

"But it is less likely along the coast where it will be warmer. More likely for areas north of the M4.

"The uncertainty is about the track and intensity of the weather system, meaning that confidence is low in the amount and extent of any snow."

Thames Valley Police has slightly altered its appeal for witnesses to a rape at knifepoint in Botley last night.

A spokesman said the woman was walking along Harcourt Hill between 19:45 and 20:10, as opposed to between 20:10 and 20:15 as previously reported.

A new description of the offender says he was wearing dark black clothing, with a hood up and a balaclava covering the lower part of his face.

He is white, around 30-years-old, muscular and just under 6ft.

Oxford City Council apologised earlier for a blunder that saw it tweet a message describing Trump as being in a meltdown as he dismissed claims Russia had compromising material on him.

Following news of the apology, Dan Hart on Facebook said: "I should think so too, sullying his otherwise impeccable character."  

Katherine Newman-Warren added: "If he isn't [in meltdown], then he should be... I'd be surprised it he gets sworn in before he's off to answer questions!"

But Robert Bedding said: "Yesterday the Russians did everything they could to get Trump elected. Today the same press is saying Russia has a dossier that is going to stop Trump being the new President. I have never seen such tripe and rubbish in all my life. The press should just get over it. Trump won and will be President. Respect democracy."

Nina Goodman says on Facebook: "Yes please. He was my first crush. I visited his home on Sunday... a plaque would be a fabulous idea, maybe a statue somewhere in the village?"

Izzy Burberry says: "A discreet plaque on the house would be good. His music is his lasting memorial."

Oxford United now have a realistic chance of reaching Wembley for the second successive season and boss Michael Appleton says they can go all the way in the EFL Trophy after reaching the quarter finals.

The U's beat Scunthorpe 4-1 last night and are one of only three League One teams left in the competition with the draw for the next round set to take place tomorrow.

Oxford City Council has apologised after a tweet from its account described President-elect Donald Trump as "in utter meltdown". 

It followed Mr Trump's tweets dismissing claims Russia has compromising material on him. A spokesman said the tweet was wrongly sent from the council's account.

A statement said: "A member of staff mistakenly issued a personal tweet on the council's official twitter feed commenting on the President-elect Donald Trump. 

"This error was spotted by our internal monitoring and quickly deleted. The city council apologises for any offence it may have caused." 

The council's tweet, which was up for about 20 minutes, replied to one by Mr Trump, which said: "I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH RUSSIA - NO DEALS, NO LOANS, NO NOTHING!"
