The forecaster said that Storm Bram is expected to pass close to western Northern Ireland on Tuesday and will bring some very strong south then southwesterly winds. It warned that gusts of around 50-60 mph are possible across the country, while winds of up to 70 mph are possible for some exposed headlands and high ground.

There is a small chance of even stronger winds should the area of low pressure pass closer to Ireland. Winds are expected to gradually ease during Tuesday night.
