A clean-up operation is underway after homes were flooded in counties Down and Tyrone.
Storm Bert brought chaos across Northern Ireland on Saturday morning, with power cuts, travel disruption and flooding.
A new alert has been issued for strong winds on Sunday.
Homes near Moat Park in Dundonald were affected by flooding. Some residents at Park Avenue were trapped in their homes by the floodwater.
Several homes in Coalisland, Co Tyrone, have also been damaged. A local community centre has been opened for those affected.
The Department for Infrastructure said its roads and rivers teams responded to over 500 incidents since the yellow weather warning for Storm Bert took effect.
“There has been some internal flooding to properties in Dundonald, Kilcoo, Coalisland and Ballinamallard as well as a Royal Mail property in Mallusk,” it said.
The department said the Emergency Flooding Payment Scheme has been activated.
About 3,500 customers were without power this afternoon, with the south east and north west worst affected.
The weather also led to the Bangor Christmas Lights switch-on event scheduled for this evening being postponed.
