There was a program on the BBC last night about why we seem to get wet summers, it was fairly interesting (if you're into clouds and shit).
Basically, as the air is warmer in the summer it's less dense, which allows larger clouds to form, which can hold more water, and can lead to showers. Also because the air is less dense the surface tension of the water droplets is lower which allows larger rain drops to form, leading to what seems like heavier rain.
