Don't normally post on here but as an Isle of Wight resident I find this model malarkey very frustrating.
It's going to get cold over the next week for sure, but all I'm hoping for is an occasional dusting so anything more than that is a bonus. Every time snow is mentioned people always say to me - yeah but we won't get any.

Wot do u fellow islanders think of our chance of snow next week?? Bound to miss us ugh as always but I'm praying!! Lol
Arreton resident here.
As you know us islanders are allways the last to see snow. Overall I would say we are in with a chance but I won't be happy until I see lying snow outside.For sure its gonna get real chilly next week though.

morning cyclonic. I think its going to be an interesting evening/night for us islanders. Wroxall weather has given us force 12 gust for most of the night with sustained winds of f8 to f10. Ive only got two roof tiles missing but I reckon that could increase over night !

Programme on sky 1 HD at 8pm about storms this winter.
