Default Wettest June on record

According the Met Office, this has been the wettest June on record in the UK.

I do wish they would specify where the data comes from, because many parts of the UK have only had their wettest July since 2007, and there are those stations in the far north, with well below average rainfall, if I am not mistaken.

A broad brush approach to excite the media is disappointing IMHO.

It is probably some sort of spatial average over the UK. May be worth
asking them.
