Foggy Weekend Ahead: Hazardous Driving Conditions Expected

Hazardous weather conditions are expected across England and Wales this weekend, following the significant disruption caused by Storm Boelo last week. BBC Weather forecasters have warned of intense fog, particularly on Friday and Saturday mornings, which could reduce visibility to below 100 metres in some areas. This dense fog is likely to create difficult and hazardous driving conditions for commuters. Despite the foggy start to the weekend, spells of sunshine are anticipated after the fog lifts, with afternoon temperatures potentially reaching 16C. The fog is expected to reform on Saturday morning and may linger until lunchtime in east Wales, central England, and southern England. For Scotland and Northern Ireland, the risk of fog is lower, with more breeze and cloud expected instead. Sunday's forecast indicates a much chillier start for these regions, with patchy fog possible in England and Wales as a weather front drifts south. The Met Office also predicts largely dry conditions for England and Wales over Saturday and Sunday, with some rain expected in northwestern Scotland on Saturday morning. Temperatures are expected to remain mild, with highs around 13-15C across major UK cities.
