Summer 'wettest in 100 years', Met Office figures show

This summer is set to be the second wettest in the UK since records began - and the wettest summer in 100 years - provisional Met Office figures suggest.

The wettest summer - defined as June, July and August - since national records began was in 1912.

Figures up until 29 August show that 366.8 mm of rain fell across the UK this summer, compared with 384.4 mm rainfall in 1912.

The April to June period was also the wettest recorded in the UK.

The figures are provisional as there are still two days remaining in August, but the BBC Weather Centre said the rainfall was not expected to exceed the total amount in 1912. Records began in 1910.

Summer is 'wettest in 100 years'

This proves beyond doubt that the climate is changing!

Well, no.... It proves that this was the second wettest summer since records began - assuming the average rainfall figures are indeed correct.

Cool.
