Most of Europe should experience above-normal temperatures from May to July, except Britain, coastal Norway, and northwestern areas of Iberia and France, the Weather Company said on Wednesday.

Nine of the last 10 summers have been cooler and wetter in northwestern Europe and hotter and drier in southeastern Europe, said Todd Crawford, the forecaster's chief meteorologist.

"Our theory is that the historically low Arctic sea ice levels are driving this pattern, which would argue for a similar summer again this year," Crawford said.

"However, many of the other models and indicators are suggesting a warmer, drier summer across northern Europe, with cooler, wetter conditions across the south," he added.

The Weather Company, owned by IBM, provides weather forecasts aimed at the commodities and energy sectors.
