Several trees were blown down including the one pictured above on the Dunkirk Road.

The Dunkirk Road is closed along with other local roads including Clare Road between Waringstown and Gilford, Drumnabreeze Road, Magheralin and Gall Bog Road, Bannview Road and Ballyroney Road in Banbridge.

Elsewhere, a number of fences collapsed and business signage also took a pummeling.
