Residents in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, can look forward to a break from the rain as warmer temperatures and sunny spells are expected between Saturday 7 March and Thursday 12 March 2026. This shift in conditions marks a move away from recent wet weather toward a much brighter start to the spring season.

According to the Met Office, the area will see a mix of sunny intervals and clouds starting this Saturday. Daytime temperatures are expected to climb steadily throughout the weekend, reaching a peak high of 14°C by Monday 9 March 2026.
