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 :-)

Will..I hope to goodness that your hunch is accurate! I had a hunch that
last year's was going to be pants, but that was based on nothing more than
the fact that the year ended in an 8. In the end it was a true '8 summer'!

After the past two letdowns, I think we deserve some decent summer weather
this year.

This will be the third summer that the Mrs and I have been together, I hope
to be able to show her around Dorset at it's best, at last.
Our wedding and honeymoon in July last year was a cool washout, as was our
holiday in the Lakes the previous summer. We're off to Cornwall this year in
the 2nd week of July, hope it is third time lucky!
