Guest The Ropey HOFF Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Figures just released from the Met office, this years summer is the wettest summer in 100 years and the fourth wettest since records began in 1727 and it is also one of the dullest summers on record and the dullest since 1980, apart from in the Borough of Stratford upon Avon, where it was the hottest summer on record, lol.

Been dry here all day Last year was the coldest summer on record, the average summer temp was a measly 13.6 degrees, I think it's false advertising calling it a ...... Summer, lol.

Like the alice springs of aus?? lol Its been crappy down there as well, this weather predictor thread has proved it conclusively, just 399 hours of sunshine over 92 days, that includes when the suns out and it's not that warm, that's really awful when you analyse it fully.

The forecast till Friday the 31st of August on this on this weather map UK weather forecast - Met Office the figures quoted for this competition are from London. Only 18 h ot days so far, 74 not hot, i added it up wrong last time, lol. Latest update. DOUBLE FIGURES AFTER 71 days. Isnt life so much better with some nice sustained hot sunny weather at last, that was two weeks ago, I was sat outside at the pub, sat in the garden, or going golfing in t shirts and shorts, it was short lived, but fantastic. :wink: Bobj is the PIO weather predictor champion, he has lived in Australia for ...... Well ever, lol, yet he predicted a measly 18 sunny hot days out of 92 days of summer, which is really abysmal, the only good thing about it, is that it was better than last year, lol. Bobj is the winner of the PIO weather predictor League Cup 2012 Better luck next year everyone. We have had some nice weather recently and people forget how poor the summer has been, a few days in the sun frazzles people's memories, lol.
