The forecaster said: "An area of heavy rain is expected to move westwards into eastern parts of Northern Ireland during Wednesday. Whilst many areas may only see modest amounts of rain, there is the potential for parts of Antrim in particular to see 30-50 mm of rain quite widely and perhaps in excess of 60-80 mm over windward facing higher ground."They added: "Rainfall should tend to ease later on Thursday morning.
Outlook for Friday to Sunday: Friday cloudy with patchy rain, then sharp afternoon showers. Brighter spells and showers for the weekend with outbreaks isolated Saturday and building during Sunday. By Bank Holiday Monday, there may still be some showers around, otherwise it will be dry and fine, and feeling warm in the sunshine. Into the following week, once any showers have cleared, more settled conditions are more likely for most, with the best of the weather likely in the southwest.
