Anyone wishing to travel on New Year's Day should check the latest road conditions and public transport information before setting out on their trip.
Met Office chief forecaster Andy Page said the forecast for next week was “complicated” and urged people to check the forecast regularly to update their plans.
He said: “At least one weather warning is expected to be issued across most of the UK over the next week.
“With such a diverse and complex weather situation, warning patterns may change and even expand in some areas.
“There will be a lot of celebration and movement over the next few days, so we urge everyone to keep checking the weather forecast to update your plans.”
This comes after several days of heavy fog blanketed the UK, causing travel disruption at some of the country's busiest airports.
