- The Met Office issued amber-level rain warnings for the eastern counties of Northern Ireland, including Antrim, Armagh, and Down, from Sunday evening into Monday morning.
- Northern Ireland is forecast to receive 50 to 75mm of rain within 12 to 18 hours, which is over half of the region's average July rainfall.
- The heavy rainfall poses risks of flooding, power cuts, dangerous driving conditions, and the potential for some communities to be cut off by flooded roads.
- A wider yellow weather warning for rain remains in place across Northern Ireland, with similar thunderstorm warnings affecting parts of Wales, South-West England, Scotland, and other areas of England.
- Disruption to the Monday morning commute is expected, and residents are advised to check flood risks and take precautions to protect their properties.
