Flood barriers remain on the Newcastle Quayside after fears the River Tyne could spill onto the streets.
A small amount of water did topple over the barrier onto the Quayside during high tide on Tuesday evening but there was no serious flooding.
The Environment Agency tweeted on Tuesday night: "Luckily the high tides were lower than expected, which means there’s unlikely to be any flooding impact this evening. But we will continue to monitor the situation throughout the night."
On Wednesday morning the barriers remained in place near to the Swing Bridge while the flooding risk was being monitored.
Flood warnings were in place at Alnmouth, Berwick & Tweedmouth, Sunderland, Seahouses, Whitley Bay, Cullercoats and Tynemouth and the Tyne Estuary during high tide on Tuesday.
These were part of 25 flood warnings around the country issued by the Environment Agency on Tuesday, as coastal areas struggled with strong gusts, high tides and large waves.
There were also 165 flood alerts, including the Berwick – Tweed Estuary, the Northumberland Coast, the Tyne and Wear Coast, the Tyne Estuary and Wear Estuary.
In an update on Wednesday morning, all flood warnings and alerts were removed from the North East region, as a period of settled weather is expected.
The wild weather began with Storm Brendan hammering Ireland on Monday, causing thousands of homes to lose power, before bringing winds in excess of 80mph to parts of Scotland and England.
Airlines were forced to divert flights scheduled to land at Gatwick Airport on Monday evening while ferries and railways faced disruption.
A second low-pressure front brought further strong gales to much of the country on Tuesday, including the North East.
A yellow warning of wind covering much of England expired late last night.
Although the wind is due to ease off on Wednesday, conditions will still be blustery.
Meteorologist Alex Burkill, from the Met Office, said temperatures are due to dip slightly.
But he warned that more unsettled weather was ahead on Thursday, particularly during the second half of the day, when places across the country could expect wet and windy weather.
"It doesn't look as bad as what we've had through the past couple of days," he added.
"At the moment it looks like we'll stay warning free (on Thursday). It's just a windy day rather than a hazardous one."
