Heavy Snow Warning Issued For NI
Northern Ireland remains in the midst of winter despite the slight stretch in the evenings, and it appears next week is no different with a forecast of heavy snow and strong winds.
A yellow weather warning for wind and snow will be in place on Monday 10 and Tuesday 11 February.
This comes off the back of Storm Ciara over the weekend, with heavy gusts of up to 80mph forecast between Saturday evening and midnight on Sunday.
Some short term loss of power is predicted as the wind and snow sweeps NI, with a chance of travel delays and cancelled rail and air travel.
The Met Office also warned of the possibility of stranded vehicles and passengers and flooding on coastal routes.
