August is drawing to a close, but nature is still giving us much to enjoy across north-east England and Cumbria

As always, our BBC weather watchers have been out and about capturing the best it has to offer.

Here are some of our favourite snaps.

News imageGill Helps The rising sun over Roker Pier with the red and white hooped lighthouse at the end. Four people are spaced along the pier, all in silhouette. Colours are hazy and muted in shades of pink and orange. The sun, which appears at a height about halfway up the lighthouse, is dark orange at its base, with the colour lightening as it moves up the sun until it is a bright yellow at the top.Gill Helps
