Thick fog to create dangerous driving conditions for UK commuters
Poor visibility could affect journeys for morning commuters this week and next
Thick fog is forecast for parts of the UK this week, creating dangerous conditions for motorists, particularly around the morning commute.
Wednesday will be a day of some sunny spells and showers but as winds turn lighter into Thursday, extensive fog is expected to form.
The fog will lead to difficult driving conditions through the Thursday morning rush hour.
While rain is also in the forecast for the end of this week, as high pressure builds into November, more mist and fog will form next week.
After the recent stormy weather across the United Kingdom, things will turn calmer in the coming days.
The stormy spell of weather was caused by a very active jet stream - the fast moving wind high in the atmosphere - sending deep areas of low pressure toward the UK.
This is now going to weaken and instead of bringing low pressure systems, high pressure will start to develop.
High pressure brings more settled weather with lighter winds. In late autumn, it also brings the risk of mist, fog, low cloud, chillier days and frosty nights.
Wednesday will start off chillier compared to recent mornings and while dry for most, there will be lots of cloud and showery rain mainly across southern Scotland, northern England and north Wales.
