Drivers are being urged to take extra care on the roads around Somerset this morning (29 November).

The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning, which is in place until 11am. However, they say some fog could be stubborn to lift, hanging around for much of the day in places.

What to expect

Slower journey times with delays to bus and train services possible

There is a chance of delays or cancellations to flights

Advice for driving in fog

Avoid travel if possible

Drive very slowly with dipped headlights, full-beam lights reflect off the fog causing a 'white wall' effect

Keep an eye on your speed, fog can give the illusion of moving in slow motion

Use fog lights, but remember to turn them off when the visibility improves

Don't hang on the tail lights of the car in front, rear lights can give a false sense of security
