Six-hour fog warning issued for whole of Cornwall
The Met Office says there could be reduced visibility across the Duchy
A severe weather warning for fog has been issued for the whole of Cornwall.
The Met Office says dense patches could cause reduced visibility across the Duchy.
People are being urged to take care on the drive to work or on the school run this morning.
The yellow weather warning came into force at 3am and will last until 9am (Monday 6th September).
What to expect
- Slower journey times with delays to bus and train services possible
- There is a chance of delays or cancellations to flights
The Met Office said: "Patches of fog will reduce the visibility to less than 100 metres in places at first this morning.
"The fog will clear from most inland areas fairly quickly, although may persist around some coasts until later in the morning."
But the good news is the fog is set to lift later this morning, to leave a warm, dry and sunny day.
Here is what the forecast has in store over the next few days.
Today:
Any fog and mist patches from overnight will soon clear, leaving the day fine and dry with sunny spells. Feeling very warm to locally hot. Maximum temperature 26 °C.
Tonight:
Staying fine and dry to end the day with largely clear skies. Skies remaining clear for most through the night, bringing a risk of some fog patches. Minimum temperature 15 °C.
Tuesday:
