The Bloody British Weather

"Forecasters predict a repeat of last year's wash-out summer," from the Daily Mail. "Another washout summer on its way as forecasters predict grey skies and more rain," from the Express.
Interesting then to take a shuftie at these weather maps from the US National Weather Service forecasting a drier than normal summer. Here they are on a month by month basis:
June
July
August
They even take us through to the autumn and early winter:
September
October
November
Of course they may know Jack Shit, like the Express and the Mail, but it gives us something to pin our hopes on though doesn't it? Cue "I don't want it to be that dry" emails.....
