God... that is one of the most aggravating sights possible for a summer fan.
Accuweather forecasting a 'warm and dry summer with plenty of sunshine' for the UK means we will get another 2007 or 2012, it'll be one of the worst summers in history.
June 2007 started off warm and sunny, and quickly collapsed into a Glasgow-style summer after about 10th June. Temperatures and sunshine never recovered after that. August was the warmest and sunniest month of that summer, with an average high of 21.5c and barely 180 hours of sun. The warmest day in July only reached 24.0c, and the year failed to reach 30c!
The models suggest the exact same start to June and jet pattern this year.
Hopefully summer 2020 will be warm and sunny to round out the 91-20 averages.

We had a couple notable heatwaves in the summers of 07 and 12
In 07, we had an intense heatwave in early to mid July, and another heatwave that was slightly more moderate in late August
In 12, we had a blistering heatwave the first half of August, and June of 12 while it didn't have a heatwave was consistently seasonably warm every day
Summer 2007 had a warm and sunny spell in early June, with no precipitation until 15th June. It was then wet and cool pretty much constantly until the first week of August, which was warm and sunny (peaking at just 29c, the warmest day of the year). The rest of August was cool and cloudy, but not wet.
2012 was also terrible, but far superior to 2007. June was cool, wet and at the time the cloudiest on record. July was also wet with well below average temperatures, though it reached 30c just before the Olympics. August was average, also reaching the low 30s. September 2012 was warm, dry and sunny.

The thought of such a summer gives me an odd mix of emotions.

Outdoor swimming and barbecues plain and simple, and it's especially welcome if you live in a northern climate with a frigid winter and fairly cool spring
