ESSEX has been issued with a yellow weather warning after thick fog descended on the county last night.
But the region could see above-average September temperatures today after the early morning fog clears to give sunny spells during the late morning.
Isolated showers would appear during the afternoon, which could turn to heavy with the possibility of thunder.
Wind will be light with sunshine making the maximum temperature of 22 degrees Celsius fell quite warm.
The Met Office issued a yellow warning for the fog this morning as visibility has been reduced to 100 metres or less in some places.
Although this disruptive fog across parts of Essex is likely to see brighter conditions beginning to break through in many places by mid-morning.
Where the sun comes out for any lengthy spells, temperatures will rise several degrees above the September average.
