Summarised from 3 outlets · 6 reports · Updated 8 Nov, 12:49 · Archive

Buckinghamshire is covered by a Met Office yellow fog warning with visibility potentially falling below 100 metres.

Buckinghamshire is among areas covered by a Met Office yellow fog warning, with visibility expected to fall below 100 metres in some places. The warning came into force at 9pm on Friday, November 6, and was due to remain in place until 11am on Saturday, November 7. The warning was updated at 4.20am on Saturday, with its coverage extended slightly further west and north-west following the latest observations and forecast data.

Forecasters said clearing skies across south-east England had led to mist and patchy fog developing. The Met Office said visibility could fall below 100 metres in places, with slower journey times and possible impact on bus and train services. The fog was expected to gradually lift and clear to mist and haze during Saturday morning, although it may persist for longer in places where visibility was poorest earlier in the day.

Buckinghamshire is included alongside neighbouring areas including Milton Keynes, Oxfordshire and Hertfordshire. The yellow warning has been given a high likelihood of occurrence and a moderate potential impact.

The Met Office advises people travelling during fog to check road conditions before driving and leave extra time for their journey or amend their plans if necessary. Drivers are advised to know how to switch on their fog lights and check they are working before setting off. Bus and train passengers are advised to check for updates from their travel companies before travelling.
