The warnings include areas of the East and West Midlands, North East England, North West England, Yorkshire and the Humber, Wales, South West Scotland, and Northern Ireland.

“Make sure you know how to switch on your fog lights, and check they are working before setting off on your journey.
“Bus and train services, as well as flights and ferry travel may also be affected; check for updates from your travel company and follow their advice.
“Be prepared for weather warnings to change: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.”
