Judging by the reaction to our last weather update from the Met Office, some of you are very keen to see snow arrive on the Island and others less so.
We wouldn’t get too excited just yet, as these forecasts can change several times within the space of 24 hours (let along three days), but at the moment the Met Office is forecasting snow for most of the Isle of Wight on Friday.
Potential for a spell of snow
They say, “As the weather breaks down, there is the potential for a spell of snow to spread from the southwest. As winds strengthen, blizzard conditions are a possibility, especially over high ground. Accumulations of 2-5 cm are possible quite widely and in some locations, especially higher ground, 15 cm are possible.
The public should be aware of the possibility of travel disruption. This warning is likely to be updated over the next few days.”
