Some 'unseasonable' conditions ahead according to the Met office
A yellow weather warning has been issued for this weekend with Met Office saying it is set to be "unseasonably wet and windy conditions".
Explaining the warning, a spokesperson for Met Office said: "Heavy and persistent rain, accompanied by some strong winds, will push east across Northern Ireland on Saturday morning. Widely, totals of 20-30mm are possible, however the heaviest and most persistent rain is more likely in the south and perhaps also east of the country, affecting parts of County Down and Belfast. Here, there is a small chance of 40-60mm, with perhaps as much as 20-30mm of this falling in just a couple of hours.
However, the sun is set to return after the heavy rain leading to a brighter and slightly drier afternoon and evening.
