Stunning photographs have revealed a turbulent side to the normally genteel Isle of Wight.<br />
<br />
The seemingly benign south coast holiday destination has been catalogued over a stormy year by local photographer Jamie Russell, and his astonishing pictures reveal the dramatic changes in weather that roll across the UK in just 12 months.<br />
<br />
Lightning storms, ice, floods, gales and blizzards have all been captured by the intrepid photographer who frequently got up in the middle of the night to capture the climatic chaos.<br />
<br />
Looking at these pictures prospective holidaymakers could be forgiven for thinking twice about a gentle staycation on the south coast island.
