A THICK winter fog has descended over much of Surrey this evening with visibility down to 100 yards in many places.
Motorists travelling home from weekends away are finding many of the county's roads affected by the reduced vision.
Reigate, Dorking, Guildford and Farnham are all seeing the chilling fog.
Some flights into Gatwick are delayed but it is not known at this stage if the weather is to blame.
One flight this evening from Madrid is running an hour late, as is a flight from Newquay. Another flight due in from Trondheim is running 40 minutes behind schedule and an Edinburgh flight is listed as being 35 minutes late. Visibility at the airport is down to just 250 yards and the temperature is only one degree Celsius above freezing.
The Met Office said that milder weather is on the way and conditions should improve by the morning.
Heathrow Airport is seeing some fog but it is not as bad as at Gatwick.
