Met Office issues yellow weather warning for fog covering Milton Keynes

The warning is valid between midnight and 10am on Wednesday, December 17 and covers large parts of the country, including sections of the East Midlands, the east of England region including Milton Keynes, parts of London and south east England, north west England, south west England, Wales, West Midlands, Yorkshire and the Humber.

The Met Office says that the fog will develop across the west of the warning area initially before spreading eastwards through the night.

Although the fog is expected to clear from the west of the area before dawn, it is likely to be slower to clear from the East Midlands and south east.

Patches of dense fog are expected which could lead to difficult travel conditions, including the chance of delays and cancellations to flights.

According to the latest forecasts for Milton Keynes, mist and fog are expected to set in between 1am and 8am on December 17.

Temperatures are likely to hover at just above freezing with no rain expected until the afternoon.
