Surprisingly, sunshine and showers in Cleadon- the first showery day since the 21st April, as other showery days have tended to stay dry along the east coast of Tyneside. It was sunny with patchy cumulus earlier in the day. Currently 12.7C following an earlier high of 14.0C, which is, remarkably, the warmest it's been since early April.
