Fog expected to disrupt transport across southern England, Wales and Northern Ireland early week
The Guardian reported on 9 November that fog was expected to disrupt transport across southern England, Wales and Northern Ireland early in the week, after the Met Office issued a series of yellow fog warnings. The Met Office had earlier extended a yellow warning for fog to large parts of the United Kingdom, covering England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland from evening until morning. The Manchester Evening News reported that dense fog in Greater Manchester forced flight diversions, obscured a fireworks display and hampered television coverage of an FA Cup match, prompting a new Met Office warning.
Earlier, the agency issued yellow warnings for the West Midlands and for South West England, forecasting dense fog from midnight to 10 a. m. in those regions.
