Rain will spread north into the warning area before clearing away east through Tuesday morning. The rain will be heavy at times with accumulations of 25-30 mm expected quite widely and 40 mm falling in places, perhaps particularly near the coast and across the Mournes. What should I do? Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit. Give yourself the best chance of avoiding delays by checking road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables, amending your travel plans if necessary. People cope better with power cuts when they have prepared for them in advance. It’s easy to do; consider gathering torches and batteries, a mobile phone power pack and other essential items. Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.

Heavy rain overnight Monday into Tuesday may lead to some transport disruption.
