Blanket of fog covers Britain after temperatures plummet overnight
Nov 27, 2020
Frost and fog blanketed much of Britain this morning after temperatures dropped to below freezing overnight.
The mist is not expected to clear up until at least midday, with drivers urged to take care on the roads.
The Met Office said the frosty conditions may last through the day in some areas after descending on the country on Thursday night.
It means travel disruption is likely – though fewer people will be on the roads than normal due to restrictions on movement under the national lockdown.
The Met Office has issued a Yellow weather warning covering most regions of England and Wales and said central England and east Wales will be the worst affected.
The fog brought chilly conditions, with temperatures reaching lows of two degrees on Friday morning after plummeting below 0 overnight.
Temperatures dipped to -3.1°C on Thursday in Sennybridge in Wales and South Newtington in Oxfordshire.
With exercise one of the limited reasons why people can leave their home under current coronavirus restrictions, many Brits chose to brace the cold temperatures.
Images show people going for their morning runs, dog walks and bike rides despite the cold and foggy weather.
People have been advised to avoid travel as much as possible.
The Met Office said: ‘Friday morning will be grey and cold for many and there will be some freezing fog patches for some of us, these most widespread across central England and eastern Wales. Showery rain will affect northern Scotland but elsewhere some sunshine is possible in places.’
