The forecaster said 'some forecast uncertainty' is possible next week
A Met Office spokesperson said: "Milton is expected to weaken to a tropical storm once over the open waters of the Atlantic and transition into an extratropical storm after it passes to the south of Bermuda.
"If the remnants of Milton end up in the Atlantic as a weakening feature, it could cause some forecast uncertainty next week." At the time, Posting on X, formerly known as Twitter, BBC NI weather had said: "Bit of an app issue this morning! Definitely not hurricane force winds for today and tomorrow. Waiting for a fix asap."
