The UK is facing a wet and warm summer this year, according to a long-range forecast by the Met Office.
Its forecasters said temperatures were likely to be warmer than average for the UK, and rainfall near or above average for the three months of summer.
However, it said there was a very low probability of the exceptional rainfall on the scale of last year which caused devastating floods in some parts. The Met Office described the forecast as a "typical British summer".
