The Met Office says the North East can expect patchy fog to clear tonight, with clearer spells developing.

Saturday will see a frosty start, with fog patches slowly clearing.

After a sunny morning, cloud will develop through the afternoon, with some light rain and hill snow in places.

It will be a little colder than the last few days, with a maximum temperature of 5C - though it will feel colder.

On Sunday it will be mostly cloudy with some light showers, perhaps wintry over the hills, and a maximum temperature of 4C.

The outlook for Monday and Tuesday is drier and brighter, but still cold, with overnight frost and fog patches.
