NI Weather Warnings Lifted Early; Republic Issues New Advisory

Authorities in Northern Ireland have lifted all weather warnings issued for the region. This includes previously issued yellow warnings for rain and wind across the entire area. These warnings had indicated risks of flooding and difficult conditions due to strong winds along coastlines.

Conversely, the Republic of Ireland has brought forward its advisory for coastal regions. A status yellow wind warning is now in effect for 11 counties from 2 PM to 10 PM on Sunday. Met Eireann predicts very windy conditions with strong, gusty south-to-southwest winds and coastal gales.

Potential impacts include wave overtopping, loose objects being displaced, and fallen trees, leading to difficult travel. This situation follows Storm Goretti, which brought snow to parts of the UK and resulted in a fatality in Cornwall.
