Bristol Airport has issued a warning to passengers planning on flying to or from the airport tomorrow after the Met Office sent out their own red weather warning for wind.
The airport's official Twitter account wrote: "A red warning has been issued by the Met Office for Friday, February 18 from 7am to 12pm. The wind is forecasted to reach 70-80mph.
"Please take precaution [sic] when travelling to and from the airport. For the latest flight information please refer to your airline's website."

The caution is all because Storm Eunice is about to batter Britain - and the West Country is set to be the worst-hit. In a sign of the seriousness of the situation, the government has today called a Cobra meeting - the briefings held whenever there is a national or regional emergency in the country.
The Met Office's red weather warning for wind means it is "very likely that there will be a risk to life". It also means "dangerous weather is expected and, if you haven’t already done so, you should take action now to keep yourself and others safe from the impact of the severe weather".
Finally, it means we should avoid travelling, where possible. In Avon and Somerset a 'major incident' has been declared and schools have been told to close.
As well as Bristol and the south west, south Wales is set to be badly hit by the storm, prompting all Cardiff's schools to shut tomorrow and rail services to be suspended. First Bus has advised that all bus services in Bristol (including metrobus, Bristol Park and Ride and Airport Flyer), South Gloucestershire, North Somerset and Wells will be suspended after last journeys tonight until at least 1pm tomorrow.
