    North East England weather forecast

    Headline:

    Wet and windy, some drier spells later. Very mild.

    Today:

    Heavy rain progressing northwards during the morning. The rain will become lighter and more intermittent during the afternoon, with drier spells in the east especially. Generally windy, with gales in exposure. Very mild, although the warmth tempered by the wind. Maximum temperature 15 °C.

    Tonight:

    Drier but very windy overnight, with the odd shower perhaps blowing through from the west. Colder than the preceding night, however the wind will help to prevent a frost. Minimum temperature 3 °C.

    Wednesday:

    Bright but blustery, with sunny intervals but also a few further sharp showers blowing through, although cloudier with a little rain in the west. Temperatures trending downwards to nearer normal. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

    Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

    Changeable through this period, with Thursday probably driest, ahead of some rain Friday and perhaps more generally wet and windy conditions on Saturday. Temperatures above average overall.
