Hide AdIt was issued on Saturday morning, with forecasters warning that ice and snow fall could lead to hazardous conditions on the roads.
A Met Office spokesperson said: “Spells of rain, sleet and snow will develop from the south late Saturday before clearing through Sunday.
"Coastal areas will likely see rain, but inland and over higher ground, sleet and snow is more likely. Locally 1-3 cm of snow is possible away from coasts, with 5-10 cm possible over the Mournes, Sperrins and Antrim Hills.
"Ice will be an additional hazard, especially on untreated surfaces.”
