A yellow weather warning for much of the UK has been issued by the Met Office and it includes Gloucestershire.
The warning is in place from 9am until 11.59pm on Saturday July 15 and this period could see some disruption.
The wind, expected on Saturday, could cause delays to road, rail, air and ferry transport and possibly even short-term loss of power and other services, the Met Office says.

It’s likely that high-sided vehicles on exposed routes and bridges could experience delays.
Some damage to trees or temporary structures such as marquees, tents and inflatables could occur.
The Met Office explained that a deep area of low pressure will affect parts of the UK on Saturday with some very strong gusts of wind likely to its south.
What different Met Office weather warnings mean
We can expect a blustery and showery day with some thunder and winds are set to gust widely to 40 mph, and locally up to 50 to 55 mph during the daytime.
The strongest gusts are likely to occur mainly, but by no means exclusively, over hills and along the south coast.
Some minor damage and travel disruption is likely. Winds will moderate later in the evening and overnight.
