The red warning – the highest Met Office alert – will be in force from 7am until 2pm, affecting all six counties.

According to the Met Office: “Southwesterly then westerly winds will rapidly increase from west to east during the Friday morning rush hour with peak gusts of 80-90 mph fairly widely and perhaps up to 100 mph along some exposed coasts.

"This brings the risk of significant disruption to transport and power supplies, as well as dangerous conditions outdoors. Winds will gradually ease from the south through Friday afternoon.”

An amber weather warning is also in place until 9pm in Friday as Storm Éowyn, the first named storm of the year, begins to sweep in.

‘Weather bomb’ to sweep strong winds and heavy rain across UK this weekend

The Republic of Ireland is under a Status Red wind warning, with schools and creches to close tomorrow and workers urged to work from home as Storm Éowyn brings a “danger to life”.

The storm is set to land in the Republic in the early hours of tomorrow morning and has been described as probably “among the severest storms that Ireland has ever seen”.

Yesterday new weather warnings, including an amber warning for wind, were issued with forecasters warning that high winds from Storm Éowyn will bring a “danger to life”.

The forecaster has said that some areas may be affected by winds of up to 90mph on Friday, while the amber warning is in place.

A separate yellow weather warning for strong winds will also come into force from midnight until 11.59pm on Friday.

The severe gale or storm force westerly winds should ease through the afternoon, with showers turning wintry into the evening.

The Met Office warned that injuries and danger to life could occur from flying debris, as well as large waves and beach material being thrown onto sea fronts, coastal roads and properties.

The weather service also warned that power cuts are likely to occur, with the potential to affect other services, such as mobile phone coverage.

They added that road, rail, air and ferry services are likely to be affected, with longer journey times and cancellations possible. Some roads and bridges will close.

A spokesperson for the forecaster said: “Storm Éowyn will move across the northwest of the UK on Friday, clearing to the northeast on Friday night.

"This will bring a spell of very strong west to southwesterly winds, with peak gusts of 60-70 mph fairly widely inland, 70-80 mph in some areas, and 80-90 mph along more exposed coasts and hills (perhaps even higher in a few locations).

"It should be noted that there may be a slight reduction in wind strength for a time as the centre of Storm Éowyn passes overhead, this most likely in parts of Northern Ireland and western Scotland, before winds rapidly increase again. Winds will gradually ease later on Friday.”
