With fog patches set to spread overnight, the warning states that “some dense fog patches are possible, with visibilities perhaps dropping to between 50-100m in a few places”.

The biggest fog patches are likely to be across eastern parts of Wales, through to the Midlands and into eastern England, according to forecaster Greg Dewhurst who added that they are also “going to be across the rest of the country too but it maybe not as dense or as widespread”.

Warning people to be careful if they are out and about, he said: “If they are up early and through Saturday morning, if they are travelling or out for a walk, there will be some dense fog patches around.

Bryson DeChambeau doesn't want to keep being 'super-controversial figure'

P... While the 28-year-old has already landed 10 professional wins, including the 2010 US Open, he’s often set himself up for an unnecessary fall.In the 2020 Masters, for instance, when he talked about how Augusta National would be playing as a par 67 to him as opposed to the actual figure of 72 only to finish outside the top 30.

“Do take care when driving as there will be reduced visibility on the roads so you may not be able to see very far in front of you.”

The mist and fog patches have been given the chance to  form because light winds and high pressure across the UK means the air is not moving very quickly.

Mr Dewhurst said: “They will be generally slow to clear because the sun is not very strong at this time of year.”

Blighted visibility could bring  hazardous driving conditions in some areas, slower journey times for road trips and possible delays to bus and train services.

Temperatures are set to drop as low as -5C in some rural spots across England and Wales, while regions further north and in the far west will stay above freezing due to increased cloud cover.

It is going to be a chilly start with frost around early on Saturday, before it turns into a dry cloudy  day.

The Midlands cold see -2C overnight with temperatures up to 0C- 5C elsewhere. Later temperatures will struggle in the cold spell and a maximum figure of around 10C is expected in south-west England.
