I'd like a bit less rain and humidity - though as somebody who has a room facing the afternoon sun i'm glad we're going to get less of it. It means I'll be able to sleep at night! Woohoo!!
Thank god I'm speding the best part of next month abroad then, does nobody like warm weather? I don;t like it boiling but....beer gardens, the beach, BBQ's, riding your bike, going out at night and it still being light. What is wrong with you all....

My TV got done in the tropical storm we had last summer even though I thought everything was switched off.
Had an excuse to replace my old 21" CRT with a new 26" LCD though.

Thats funny,
Because I could have sworn the exact same experts said we were going to have the hottest / driest summer on record about 6 months ago. Every met man around the UK and every newspaper panicked for about 2 weeks about how hot it was going to get this year. And I could have sworn they were telling people to ration water / expect hosepipe bans and expect crops to be ruined and gardens to be parched all round the UK.
One of the reasons I take absolutely no notice of weather forcasts that predict weather more than 24 hours in the future. They have no idea what its going to be like next week let alone next year or next month, and no supercomputer now - or in 2000 years time is ever going to be able to tell them

I practically orgasm when it rains during hay-fever season. 
It's the one thing that brings pure relief.

As someone who has an overclocked PC running day and night in a south-facing bedroom I am positively glad of the lack of sun!
I love the rain and snow, when it happens. Yay to more rain!
