The Nolan show is asking this morning, why the organisation tasked to keep us safe - the Civil Contingency Group - didn't meet until 2pm yesterday.
They didn't meet until two hours after the amber warning started. Two hours after the main warnings of a "potential for injuries and danger to life" were issued. A similar organisation in the south had been meeting from 10.30 am on Sunday.
Also on the programme, Stephen talks to charity worker whose van was burnt out in racist attack. And should we ban prostitute review websites?

The Nolan show is asking this morning why the organisation tasked to keep us safe - the Civil Contingency Group - didn't meet until 2 pm yesterday.
So they didn't meet until two hours after the amber warning started. Two hours after the main warnings of a "potential for injuries and danger to life" were issued.
A similar organisation in the south had been meeting from 10.30 am on Sunday.
Racist Attack
Police have confirmed they are treating an incident where a charity worker's van was set alight outside their east Belfast home as a racist attack.
Ian Campbell, founder of charity Ten Foundations who raise funds and support for children in the Philippines, woke in the small hours of Sunday morning to find the charity's van in flames outside his front door.
Prostitute Review Sits
Thousands of people have signed a petition in the south calling for a ban on men being able to rate & review women on line - they've paid to sleep with.
The website also reviews women working as prostitutes in Northern Ireland.
