Weather Alerts

Storm Dave brings a spell of very strong winds Saturday into Easter Sunday morning which may cause some damage and travel disruption: UPDATED

Northern Ireland
Severity: Moderate Urgency: Future

Information on update: The likelihood of impacts has been increased and end time delayed slightly. A rapidly deepening area of low pressure, Storm Dave, will pass close to Ireland before crossing Scotland on Saturday night, clearing into the North Sea on Sunday. Whilst some uncertainty remains in the exact track and shape of Storm Dave, a spell of strong southerly veering westerly winds is expected to affect Northern Ireland. Gusts of 50-60 mph are expected fairly widely with 60-70 mph in more exposed locations. The strongest winds are expected during Saturday evening where there is a small chance of gusts of 70-80 mph briefly. Large waves may lead to some dangerous conditions around windward coasts. For further details see https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/warnings-and-advice/uk-warnings

Prepare to protect your property and people from injury. Check for loose items outside your home and plan how you could secure them. Items include; bins, garden furniture, trampolines, tents, sheds, and fences. Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary. People cope better with power cuts when they have prepared for them in advance. It’s easy to do; consider gathering torches and batteries, a mobile phone power pack and other essential items. If you are on the coast, stay safe during stormy weather by being aware of large waves. Even from the shore large breaking waves can sweep you off your feet and out to sea. Take care if walking near cliffs; know your route and keep dogs on a lead. In an emergency, call 999 and ask for the Coastguard. Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly. When a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.
