I would take this for the rest of spring and summer

Quite possibly because you are daft and have not noticed much of the country is already in drought.
Personal
I think many would take that. It's a temperature forecast and nothing to do with drought
Heat waves and drought are not completely unrelated?
If all year all you wish for is mild, dry, high pressure dominated weather and then that is what you have, it is perhaps not a surprise if drought conditions follow?
And certainly a warmer than average, sunny spring and summer would be great. Lovely sunny days by the beach are great. Just a shame if it follows a drier than average winter, spring, summer, autumn, winter... Ideally it would be good to have cooler and wetter weather in late autumn, winter, early spring (rather than the options of dry, dusty, drought through summer, or a wet and cool summer which avoids a drought, but is not much fun).
For the remainder of spring at least CFSv2 (for what it;s worth) looks average
