Yellow weather warning given for Northern Ireland this Sunday

Derry City and Strabane District Council have taken to social media to warn about windy conditions on Sunday.

The Met Office has given yellow weather warnings for all of Northern Ireland.

The council said: “The Met Office has issued a YELLOW warning for WIND for Northern Ireland between 0300hrs and 1500hrs on Sunday 23rd February 2025. 

“Southerly winds are expected to increase through Sunday morning, peaking late morning to early afternoon with gusts of 50-60mph, and perhaps as much as 70mph on the exposed Irish Sea coastline and some other areas of high ground. Rain will accompany strong winds, which will make for very poor weather conditions, especially on roads. Winds are expected to ease slowly through the afternoon.

“Please ensure all loose outdoor items in the garden are secured and keep up to date with weather warnings via social media or online.”
