Ulster's BKT United Rugby Championship match away to Edinburgh scheduled for tonight has been postponed due to Storm Amy.
Organisers yesterday pushed forward the kick-off time to avoid the worst of the storm but have now decided to call it off.
"Due to worsening weather conditions across Scotland overnight from Storm Amy, the fixture which was due to take place this evening, Friday 3 October in Edinburgh will now be postponed to a later date," said the URC.
"The BKT URC will now consider available dates with broadcasters and both clubs to reschedule the game."
Ulster Rugby asked supporters who have travelled to Edinburgh to take care and stay safe on the journey home.
Richie Murphy's side were looking to make it two wins from two after last weekend’s bonus-point victory over Dragons.
They will host the Bulls next Saturday with a 7.45pm kick-off.
"We were set to welcome a capacity crowd for tonight's game," said Edinburgh managing director Douglas Struth.
"However, the safety of supporters, players, partners, and everyone associated with this weekend’s fixture is of the utmost importance so, while disappointing, it is absolutely the right decision to postpone tonight’s game considering the escalating weather reports overnight.
"This decision has not been taken lightly. We have worked closely with the URC, Scottish Rugby, the Met Office, and local authorities to ensure it is the best-informed choice."
