A potential ‘weather bomb’ is on the cards for Northern Ireland, as Storm Floris is predicted to hit. The Met Office has warned of unseasonable ‘disruptive’ conditions on the way. The storm is expected to hit the six counties from 6am on Monday until early on Tuesday.

Northern Ireland is set to be hit by Storm Floris at the start of next week, with heavy rain and gales expected. Before then, however, the weather across this weekend will feature warmer temperatures, sunshine, and clear periods. There is likely to be some rain at times, too, but it will stay mostly dry.

Storm Floris is set to bring unseasonable strong winds along with heavy rain to Northern Ireland early next week.
