A hot, dry summer starts today

According to the Agencia Estatal de Meteorología (AEMET) the summer that starts in Spain at exactly 13.28 - as we write: check this post if you don't believe us! - will be over the average in temperature, will last 93 days and 15 hours and will start with a rise in temperature to somewhere over 35º this week. Today, of course, is the longest day in the year, daylight lasting about 15 hours against the 9 of the year's shortest day, and this is going to be the driest summer for many a year. Wait a minute, they said that about last summer, didn't they?
