LetItSnow! I dont remember 1971 but 1974,1982,1992,1999 and 2004 were all decent summers despite their rainfall,certainly for me as a farmer trying to get the hay made.

For me the standout was 1989,having endured 4 and a half years of wet weather and poor summers and still bogged down trying to work in the fields with the tractors that April the switch around to hot and dry was truely remarkable.

As a Farmer i can say that the summer overall was poor but despite the very wet June and July August was actually quite decent with lots of sunshine but the temperatures were very cool.That is why my memories of 2007 were not as bad as the horrors of 2012 and 2008 and even 2023 when we had to do much of our haymaking in September what should have been done in July.However i do remember a conversation with my brother at the end of summer 2007 despite getting the hay done in August that year that it didnt feel like we had had a summer mainly due to the weather in August being constant days of 22 deg at best ,little did i know that it would be another 6 years before we would see another good summer.

I never thought we would see 40 deg in this country but i have tried to eat my hat.However lets not forget this could have just been a perfect set up the likes our children may never see however unlikely and also not forgetting many records set in August 1990 were not broken until 2015 and in 2022,that is 30 years!
