Once again, Cheltenham is performing this trick, which it seemed to
learn early last autumn.

Showers get intercepted by the Welsh mountains.
Rain belts from the north run into high pressure and die before here.
Rain belts from the south never quite make it up this far.

.... or perhaps I'm just being paranoid?

BTW, where were the wettest & driest areas in June?
