Are we actually going to have a summer this year then?

I work in the same building as weather men. They say its because the UK is a island we are affected by the sea a lot and that is why we get the sort of weather we get here. They say global warming is defo happening and even though temps are higher, you also get more freak weather patterns and the UK will get freak weather in the end, nice to know lol.

Mid 20s with clear skies would be nice, as would a proper winter with proper snow and cold. It's the middle wet mild bit I hate (which is what we have all year round more or less), also hate the stupid hot, although humidity plays a huge roll in that.

Keep going to hot countries for hollidays, really need to go to snow covered lands, but a lack of interest by mates and Scandinavian countries are expensive.

You don't ask for much do you? :p

TBH I completely agree, would like the seasons to behave how they should and not the mish mash we tend to get with the odd reasonable day thrown into a week of toilet.

I like the weather as it is, Around 20c is fine, any more and i start to boil.

The UK is just too humid for high temps.

I was on holiday last year at a location that was 40c at one point, but it was a DRY heat so wasn't that bad, it felt warmer and horrible when it was 25c here as its Just too damn humid!
 
We had summer a few weeks ago. Sadly you've seemed to missed it, unlucky, it was nice.
 
Define "Summer". If you mean weeks of blue skies with uninterrupted sunshine, then no. Because Britain almost never does. For a nation which spends so much time talking about the weather, the English at least spend remarkably little time remembering it. English summers are usually patchy, and clear skies seldom become common before August. Mid-July if you are lucky. Then the skies stay mostly clear until October. Unless you live in Manchester. Or the Lake District. But this time of year, usually anything goes. In the famous Long Hot Summer of 1976 it snowed in parts of England in June.
