Northern Ireland’s weather has taken a turn for the worst this week, with temperatures beginning to drop and more rain on the forecast.
The Met Office has said that the UK will continue to experience unsettled conditions over the coming days, with a mix of heavy rain, thunderstorms, and strong winds affecting many areas.
Paul Gundersen, Chief Meteorologist at the Met Office, said they have been monitoring a deepening area of low-pressure over the North Atlantic that “might bring impactful weather to the UK, most likely on Sunday and Monday. At present, a named storm is unlikely”.
Looking at Northern Ireland’s forecast for the days ahead, Friday will be “mainly dry start with bright or sunny spells, but a few showers in northwest at first and scattered sharp showers will break out elsewhere through the morning”.
“Moderate southwest winds, Maximum temperature 16C,” the Met Office added.
“The [outlook for Saturday to Monday] is bright spells and heavy showers Saturday. Drier overnight before heavy rain spreads from southwest Sunday morning. A return to bright spells and heavy showers on Monday with strong northwest winds.”
While the weather is set to be unsettled, parts of the UK have been issued with a yellow weather warning. The warning for wind is in place for parts of Cardiff, Plymouth and Brighton from 8pm on Sunday September 14, through to 6pm on Monday September 15.
