Met Office warns drivers not to travel as new weather warning issued

Freezing fog will lead to difficult driving conditions and could cause travel delays in Yorkshire on Saturday night and Sunday morning.

The Met Office has issued a "be aware" yellow weather warning between 2am and 11am . This comes after a nine-hour 'do not travel warning' last night. The Met Office released the following statement, it said: "Areas of freezing fog are expected to develop on Saturday night, dense in places and perhaps slow to clear on Sunday. Visibility as low as 50 to 100 metres could be encountered in a few areas and some untreated surfaces could turn icy, this combination meaning potentially difficult driving conditions."This will result in slower journey times by car, with delays to bus and train services possible.

The Met Office has issued advice about what people should if they plan on travelling during the fog warning period. Tips include:
