The seasonal predictions of Mettoffice about this summer:
Summer 2007 UK headline: Warm, some hot spells Temperature
A warmer than average summer is expected. The aggregated Central England Temperature (CET) for June, July and August is expected to be 1C to 2C above the 1961-90 average. Precipitation
Generally close to average levels of rainfall are likely, although significant local variations are expected, and southern and eastern parts should see the driest conditions. Overall we expect levels to reach around 75% to 100% in western and northern areas, and 70% to 95% in southern and eastern parts.
June
Temperature: Above average.
Precipitation: Below average.
The first half of the month looks set to bring well above average temperatures with much dry, fine and settled weather. At times it is likely to turn very warm in southern and central parts. Rainfall levels should be below average.
The second half of June may well bring less settled weather with some thundery showers for a time, but temperatures should remain largely above average. A return to more settled weather is expected to occur fairly quickly and towards the end of the month. Overall we expect June to be a rather warm month with rainfall levels close to, or slightly below the average.
July
Temperature: Above average.
Precipitation: Slightly below average.
More fine and very warm weather is expected at times during the first half of the month, although a change to less settled conditions for a time is likely and this should bring some rain across all of the UK. As we head towards the middle of the month high pressure is expected to extend across much of the UK bringing some fine, settled and very warm or perhaps even hot conditions. The weather during the second half of the month is expected to be warm or very warm at times across much of the UK. Some bands of rain are expected to affect northern areas at times, but in the south these are likely to be patchy with the emphasis on reasonable conditions with sunny spells. From time to time during the month we think there will be a significant risk of thunderstorms developing locally, most notably later on.
August
Temperature: Above average.
Precipitation: Close to average.
During the first half of the month there should be plenty of fine and sunny weather across most of the UK. Temperatures are likely to climb once again, with warm or very warm conditions developing in the south. Northern areas maybe cooler and less settled with some rain at times, and these conditions may extend into southern and central areas towards the middle of the month. During the second half we expect cooler and showery weather to develop across the UK for a time, with the possibility of some more prolonged spells of rain. Settled and warm weather may well return later on and last until the end of the month.
Forecast Issued 31/05/2007
OK, Now you know the fiability of this kind of long range forecasts. 0%

I'm afraid this is the bullet we will all have to bite. 1 big trip rather than 10 small ones. In fact it sounds easier to go and live where your favourite pastime happens.
As for this winter the North Atlantic Oscillation seems to favour a colder Easterly flow of weather . More details here
