MOTORISTS are being warned of difficult driving conditions during the commute home this evening after the Met Office issued a yellow warning of fog. 

The warning is in place from 5pm today, Monday, to 11am tomorrow for Cheshire West and Chester and Cheshire East.

A Met Office spokesman added: "Areas of freezing fog, some dense, are expected to form again during Monday night and into Tuesday morning.

"The fog will become widespread in places, most likely in the southwest of the warning area early in the night and then in other areas later in the night and early on Tuesday morning.

"Driving conditions will be difficult with journeys likely to take longer than usual and delays to air travel are possible."
