Severe weather to hit province
The Met office have warned that severe gales are expected to hit parts of the province this evening.
Forecasters say that severe weather will affect Counties Antrim, Armagh, Derry, Down, Fermanagh and Tyrone.
As an intense low pressure off the north west coast moves northerly this evening, it will deepen dramatically to produce severe southerly gales on Monday evening, possibly causing some structural damage.
Gusts over high ground are expected to reach up to 75mph.
However, winds will veer southwesterly during the evening, decreasing quickly after midnight.
More information may be obtained from the Met Office
