A WEATHER warning for freezing fog has been issued for Hampshire.

The warning, which is in place until 11am tomorrow, comes after transport chaos at Southampton Airport and on the M27 and M3 this morning.

Motorists are being advised to drive carefully and temperatures are forecast to drop to 0C in Southampton and -2C in Winchester overnight.

A Met Office statement says: "Areas of freezing fog will quickly re-form on Monday evening and night.

"The fog will form initially, and will probably be most widespread, across parts of the southwest of England, southeast Wales and the southwest Midlands.

"Fog will also form elsewhere but areas of cloud are leading to uncertainty in the timing and extent of the fog and will result in the fog waxing and waning through the night and during Tuesday morning.

"However it is likely that some dense fog patches will develop in other parts of the warning area by Tuesday morning."
