This is now the second wettest june on record , this year seems to be one for breaking all sorts of records .
Strange but true on a nice sunny day .
The roof is on over the centre court and the floodlights are on at lord's , do the powers that be at those establishments know something that we dont ?
The weather is terrible today in merseyside with heavy rain!
