Motorists in Cornwall are being urged to take care this morning as thick fog has descended on the Duchy's roads.

In a tweet this morning, Devon and Cornwall police said: "Lots of thick fog on our roads this morning. M5 and A38 particularly poor visibility. Slow down, increase stopping distance and stay safe."

However, although the Met Office report for the south west of England said there will be low cloud, mist and fog in the morning, it is expected to burn back to the coasts through the morning, leaving the afternoon sunny with plenty of sunshine.
