Gusts of up to 70mph are “likely” across Teesside say forecasters.
A severe weather warning has been issued by the Met Office covering the whole of the area.
The warning says we can expect the high winds from Tuesday night and throughout Wednesday.
The weather is forecast to ease on Thursday.
There is also a risk of localised flooding, says the bulletin.
The Met Office warning says: “Waves will be unusually high, bringing the risk of localised flooding of roads and causeways.
“Frequent wintry showers will also bring an additional hazard, mainly over higher ground.
“The public should be aware of the potential for disruption to travel and perhaps also power supplies.”
The reason given for this is a “deep low pressure system” moving slowly eastwards between Scotland and Iceland.
Gusts of 60-70 mph can be expected, says the forecast.
Temperatures throughout the week are predicted to vary between around 0 and 6 degrees celsius.
