Rating of summers is controversial because the synoptics leading to a good summer month in areas such as North Lancashire, Cumbria and SW Scotland including Glasgow can be quite opposite to patterns more favourable to SE England & East Anglia.
Also opinions vary about what makes a good summer. Personally I want dry weather and a sky that is a proper blue, not the depressing haze that comes with plumes from the South. So, with my bias declared, I nominate the following summers [from my lifetime] as underrated and give their rank in the NW England summer rainfall series [POR=150 years] as evidence.
1984 [7th driest], 2021 [15th driest]. 1996[20], 1969[21]
