The US President will touch down in Air Force One in Belfast later on Tuesday

Joe Biden could find himself grounded by the windy Irish weather during his trip with fears he will have to ditch his helicopter if the gales are too strong.

A wind warning has been put in place in the North, with gusts expected to reach up to 100kph tomorrow. Antrim and Down, in particular, have been warned of "strong winds bringing the potential for some disruption later on Tuesday and perhaps into the early hours of Wednesday." On Friday evening the President is set to be entertained to the sound of the Chieftains at a gala event in Ballina.

An entertainment industry source told the Irish Mirror that it is strongly rumoured that The Script will also make an appearance in Ballina.
