Heaton (Tyne & Wear) (Newcastle upon Tyne) weather

Headline:

A largely fine evening, low cloud on hills and coasts.

This Evening and Tonight:

A largely fine evening ahead with low cloud developing over eastern slopes of the Pennines and along coastal routes. Cloud spreading inland during the early hours. Gusty winds over the Pennines. Minimum temperature 4 °C.

Saturday:

Cloud will quickly clear and burn back to the coast through the morning, leaving another fine and sunny day. Still feeling fairly cool in the breeze. Cold and frosty overnight. Maximum temperature 11 °C.

Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:

Settled weather persisting into next week bringing plenty of sunshine. Winds turning lighter. Feeling warm by day, although cooler towards coasts and turning cold by night with patchy frosts.

High pressure expected to prevail early in this period maintaining largely settled conditions. This should result in largely dry weather with plenty of sunshine for most. Daytime temperatures will depend on the wind direction and cloud amounts, but most places will be warm for most of the period, and very warm days most likely will be further inland. Coasts with an onshore flow tending to be cooler. Overnight frosts are possible on clear nights where winds fall light. There is also the chance of some areas of low cloud or fog, notably around the east coast. Towards the middle of April, the weather is likely to turn more unsettled for a time with a greater chance of showers or longer spells of rain for all regions.

An unsettled period is likely around mid April, with showers or longer spells of rain at times for most. Despite being unsettled, there will be fair conditions between weather systems. A return to higher pressure is favoured later in the month with some settled spells likely to return. Temperatures are likely to be around average at first, before above average temperatures become more likely again later in the period.
