Default Summer forecast for the London area

I've had another look back at local stats to 1797 and reached the following conclusion on summer: average

"This summer is looking an average one. Before you write it off, however, average summers do come with decent spells of warmth and sunshine. But I think the old saying that an English summer consists of three fine days and a thunderstorm will be used more than once this year..."

Most likely 'hot' spells... June 28th - 30th and August 15th - 19th

Temperature-wise not a bad forecast... my predicted figure of 17.4C was 0.5C lower than the result. My rainfall prediction was only 76% of what actually fell and I over-estimated sunshine by 16%.
