I'm giving this summer 7 out of 10. June- A good deal of dry bright weather with only occasional outbreaks of rain. There were 2 warmer spells, one at each end of the month. July- Though nearly double the average for rain (87.4 mm), this was largely convective with 7 thunder days recorded. Temps were close to or slightly above average. August- An improving picture from quite early in the month as the NW/SE split took hold, mostly fine & dry with rainfall well below average. Temps were mostly above average with some influence from warm sectors. It was August that swung it here, if we'd had the same weather as further West then the (entirely subjective) summer score would have been more like a 5...
