In the height of summer, Cumbria and north-east England has been treated to hot days and spectacular nights.

While some photographers captured the once-in-a-generation partial solar eclipse earlier this week, others turned their cameras to the swirling clouds overhead.

Here is what our Weather Watchers sent through this week.

bbc weather watchers / Georgia Roper The sky is shades of yellow, orange, pink and purple behind the silhouettes of the rolling hills in the background. There is a ring of leafy branches in the foreground. The scene looks onto the lake beyond, which is so still the reflection of the mountains and the sky is cast in it.bbc weather watchers / Georgia Roper

Flowers were bright and blooming in Seaham
bbc weather watchers / Biggles The wispy cloud in the blue sky is reflecting a strip of colourful rainbow, which is purple, blue, green, yellow and red. The top of a building is cast in silhouette, so there are satellites and two birds that look all black.bbc weather watchers / Biggles
The clouds obscured the partial eclipse in Gosforth, but they still put on their own show
