Camperdown (North Tyneside) weather

Headline:

Storm Floris will introduce unseasonably strong winds on Monday

This Evening and Tonight:

Dry for the first half of the night. Clear periods at first but thickening cloud will bring outbreaks of rain across the area after midnight, turning heavy over high ground. Light winds will strengthen after midnight. Minimum temperature 12 °C.

Monday:

Wet and very windy Monday morning due to Storm Floris. The rain clearing to largely dry, bright conditions in the afternoon but winds remaining very blustery. Maximum temperature 22 °C.

Outlook for Tuesday to Thursday:

Tuesday, windy with sunny spells and occasional blustery showers. Winds ease Wednesday, largely dry with sunny spells. Breezier Thursday, band of rain moving east, brighter later. Temperatures trending warmer later.

This period likely starts with something of a north-south split. Some locally heavy rain or showers, with a risk of thunder, will likely affect the north, along with some strong winds, whilst the south looks like starting mainly dry with some warm sunshine and lighter winds. There is a chance of some rain or showers even in the south, but more likely it will be mainly dry and warm here. Temperatures will probably be close to average in the north at first. As we move towards the middle of the month, there is an increased chance of high pressure becoming more dominant, leading to drier, more settled conditions becoming more widespread with above average temperatures. However, some brief unsettled spells remain possible, particularly towards the end of this period.

High pressure, and therefore fairly settled conditions overall, appears most likely for the second half of August. Although dry weather is likely to dominate, periods of rain or showers and thunderstorms may develop at times, these perhaps more likely later in the period. Above average temperatures overall seem most likely, with the potential for hot spells to develop, especially in the east and south.
