Summer cool spells
June/July 1998 is the last really prolonged cool one that comes to mind..
cant think of any since then.. will have to go back through my records.
But a quick check reveals that during June and July that year, only
19,20,21st June and July 9, 20, and 27th did the temperature exceed 21c/70f,
and only 20th June exceeded 22c.
A quick look at 2000 reveals 19th June to 16th July being pretty cool - only
a couple of days exceeded the 70f mark. First 3 weeks of June 2002 were
rather cool as well.
My records go back to March 1996 - am pretty sure the 1998 period mentioned
is the coolest summer (Jun-Aug) period over that time.

I don't recall any significant ones going back several years - when was
the last one before this (say using 3 weeks duration as a criteria).
