Very warm...then very cold.

That is what to expect from the Isle of Wight's weather over the next week.

Island forecaster Jamie Russell says after today's blustery conditions, there will be summer-like conditions...followed by the possibility of wintry showers.

However, he is quick to point out that we should not expect snow and says it is too early to be really sure.

Jamie, who runs the Isle of Wight Met Service, told the County Press: "Later this weekend and into the start of next week, it will turn very warm for the time of year.

"Expect sunny spells, light winds and almost summer-like temperatures.

"But later in the week it turns much colder, with significant frosts returning, although it will most likely be dry.

"Beyond this, there are hints it could turn even colder still, with wintry showers by day and frosts by night."

Meanwhile, the national Met Office's long range forecast has suggested parts of the country could see a return of the white stuff in the coming days.

It looks like the Isle of Wight could be spared though..
