Anyone hoping for a sunny weekend across the North East will be left disappointed, with a mixed bag set in store for the region.
Tomorrow looks to start off with stormy overcast skies, and end cloudy, however, the sun will shine through in intervals mid-afternoon, before night falls. Temperatures between 7C and 3C are expected.
And Sunday looks like a rinse and repeat according to the Met Office, with grey and cloudy blankets filling up the sky for the most part. However, not a droplet of rain is anticipated for either day, leaving the North East miserable but dry. Temperatures between 9C and 5C are estimated respectively.
