Hold tight - we’re checking permissions before loading more content A new week and a new bulletin. That’s right it’s Monday, January 8 and there’s lot of great stories to check out today.

When you pick up a paper, you’ll most commonly notice the articles and advertisements, but there’s more to a newsroom than what makes it to the news stand. Jonathan Skinner is just one of the cogs in the newspaper machine. Read all about his story. A Shepparton man who threw a bag containing a sawn-off gun and drugs out his bedroom window when police came knocking at his door looking for someone else has been sentenced. For all this and more, have a read of the latest News online or in print. You can also sign up to our various newsletters, or download the Shepparton News app, to hear from us more directly. Let’s check out what the Bureau of Meteorology has to say. It is predicting a rainy day with a 90 per cent chance of rain and six to 30mm of rainfall expected. Temperature-wise, it is expected to reach 28℃ during the afternoon before cooling off slightly, being 22℃ at 11pm tonight. The UV Index will reach an extreme 11 in the early afternoon.
