Could be so... just back from a fieldcourse with students in Portugal and
the weather this last week as exactly the same as at the April last
year... - not that that really means anything.

Anyway, warmer and drier than the last two summers is probably a pretty good
bet!

Take this with a huge pinch of salt, but over the past week I have had an
increasing hunch that this summer is likely to be very dry with long warm
spells interspersed with a few very localised dramatic thunderstorms. Not
a record breaker in terms of temperature but notable for its dryness with
the Azores high closer than normal. Are my hunches worth anything? I'll
let you all be the judge of that :-)
