Fog weather warnings in Europe

Overview

Dense fog has triggered weather warnings across different European regions. In Latvia, the Environment, Geology and Meteorology Centre issued a yellow level warning for areas including Vidzeme and Zemgale, where visibility dropped to between 270 and 350 meters in locations such as Alūksne and Bauska. Authorities advised motorists to adjust speeds and maintain larger following distances.

In the United Kingdom, the Met Office issued yellow warnings for parts of England and Wales, including the Midlands, East of England, Yorkshire, and areas near Heathrow and Stansted airports. Forecasts indicated visibility could drop below 100 metres, creating hazardous conditions for road, rail, bus, and ferry travel. As high pressure became dominant, the weather system was expected to shift northwards toward Scotland and Northern Ireland.

In Ireland, Met Éireann issued a status yellow fog warning for 12 counties across Connacht, northern Leinster, and Ulster, including Donegal, Cavan, Monaghan, Louth, Meath, Westmeath, Longford, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Roscommon, and Sligo. The warning, effective from Sunday night through Monday morning, was issued following a broader alert that previously covered 25 counties. Meteorologists warned of hazardous conditions for motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians, particularly on rural roads and in low-lying areas.
