The MET Office has recently revealed that the 2012 summer was the wettest across the UK in 100 years. In June, July and August, over 370 mm of rain fell throughout the United Kingdom. These figures also follow a wettest April, meaning that so far, it's fair to say that 2012 has been a washout. Now that we are officially into the Autumn season, things can only get wetter. If you are wanting to design and create you own outdoor clothing, you really need to look into picking the right waterproof fabrics.
