Winds of up to gale force 8 could cause problems for sailings later today.

The Steam Packet Company is warning that the Manannan crossings may be disrupted due to the weather conditions.

Gusts are forecast to peak around lunchtime, but will continue to be strong throughout the afternoon.

This could have a knock on effect for the 3.00pm sailing to Liverpool, and return crossing at 7.00pm
