On Wednesday, many people in southern England awoke to foggy conditions, with the Met Office warning that "freezing" fog and drizzle could cause travel delays.
Flooding is expected in the South West, with the Environment Agency issuing "act now" warnings to residents.
Flooding and travel disruption in southern England
Forecasters predict flooding and travel disruption across southern England.
According to the Met Office, "mist, fog, and freezing fog (including freezing drizzle)" will be slow to clear across the country's south today, as per Sky News.
Flights may be canceled and journeys may be delayed as a result of the red fog.
The Environment Agency has issued 24 flood warnings, urging residents to "act now" to protect themselves and their properties.
Residents in affected areas are being advised to turn off gas, water, and electricity supplies and to move their belongings upstairs, as well as to take family, pets, and cars to safety as needed.
Flooding was predicted in Wiltshire areas such as Ludgershall and the South Downs, as well as parts of Dorset and Somerset.
In Scotland, a burst water main caused havoc in Milngavie, Glasgow, leaving 100,000 properties without water, affecting Glasgow City Centre and the surrounding suburbs.
Although the water supply has been restored, the incident caused flooding and significant damage to the road surfaces.

Rain will arrive in southern England later this afternoon and continue into the early evening, according to the Met Office. The weekend forecast calls for a cold start on Friday, followed by showers on Saturday and Sunday.
Yesterday, unusual weather "flipped the norm," with parts of the Highlands recording 10.6 degrees Celsius compared to -9 degrees Celsius in southern England.
The mild temperatures in Scotland were caused by a shift in wind direction. The weather was "relatively unusual," according to Met Office spokesman Oli Claydon.
Is snow coming to the UK?
Forecasters predict freezing temperatures in February that could rival the Beast from the East, as per LBC.
Temperatures in much of the UK have been extremely low this week, with freezing fog canceling more than 85 flights at Heathrow and travel disruption caused by an arctic blast.
However, weather forecasts are improving as we approach the weekend, with temperatures reaching nine degrees - above average for this time of year.
But weather experts don't think we're out of the woods just yet, warning of a'snow bomb' that could hit in February as temperatures plunge yet again.
The Met Office forecast does not currently predict any snow in the UK for the next seven days, but they do predict that severe cold weather/icy conditions will return to the entire country later this month and early February.
Over the next five days, much of the UK will be cloudy with scattered showers, with temperatures slightly above average for this time of year in some places.
Snow could arrive in parts of the UK as early as February 5th, according to weather maps from WX Charts.
They also predict a sudden stratospheric warning (SSW), which occurs when the polar vortex winds weaken to the point where the air temperature in the Arctic suddenly rises, sending more freezing air south.
Changeable weather patterns are expected to bring heavy rain to the north and west. Some light rain or showers are expected in the south and east, interspersed with drier and brighter periods.
They've also predicted "settled conditions" for the middle of the month, which means a higher risk of overnight frost and freezing fog.
Temperatures are expected to be near or slightly above average, with a brief cold spell possible.
