The Steam Packet Company is warning of possible disruption to sailings today and tomorrow.

The operator says this evening's sailing from Liverpool to Douglas could be put back to avoid the worst of the weather conditions.

It's also expected that there could be delays or cancellation with the fastcraft sailings tomorrow.

Winds are forecast to reach gale force seven this evening with the sea becoming rough.

Tomorrow's forecast shows winds of gale force eight
