May - a wet month with some areas setting new rainfall records for the month. Mean temperatures above average, despite sunshine amounts below normal.
June - a warm and dry start to the month but becoming increasingly unsettled. A sustained spell of heavy rain over Lincolnshire, most of Yorkshire and the Midlands on 24-25th, with widespread flooding reported.
July - another generally unsettled month with a notable rainfall event on the 20th.
August - largely settled at first and for the last week, but very unsettled around mid-month. Temperatures close to average, but still the coldest August since 1993. Floods in central England. Mostly a cold and wet month.
