Looks like a tornado swarm Sunday night/ Monday on the Euro 

It's within 7 days so Wiz should be making a thread soon. 

 

Can definitely see a cooler August coming. Not starting the woodstove like 2 years ago. We were at a friend's near Magic Mountain at 2000' and had a couple days in a row where mornings were in the low 40s and highs never touched 65.

Nah.. def not a cool signal at all. The WAR is there for good this summer. We’ll see high dews almost daily with any troughiness staying west. Unless you mean losing the excessive high heat we’ve had this month. We won’t keep seeing 95-100 . More like 88-92 with 70+ dews

Really ... I've seen snow at least in the air in 5 of the last 8 Octobers, 3 novembers hosting winter storm warning verification -

I guess if one can't wait a month post Sept one they're probably not lucid enough to pay attention to anyway ..

But some DO expect the switch to flip around Sept 1st....

I’m a heat lover into October.   September can be a sneaky hot month.

Better days are ahead, if you're not a fan of the heat wave 
we've been experiencing that is. As we move into the latter half
of the week and weekend the synoptic patter transitions to one 
dominated by broad mid-level troughing over the northeast. As 
this happens height falls and cooler upper level temperatures 
will lead to a gradual "cool down"...quotes included because 
even so, temperatures will still feel very much summer-like. 
Some locations like Hartford and portions of eastern MA may even
get one more day tacked onto the heatwave streak on Thursday 
(i.e. could reach 90 F once more), after which things remain 
around normal or slightly above normal for early August. By the 
weekend 850 mb temperatures drop as low at 12-14 C. All of this 
translates to highs in the 80s across the region; biggest drop 
in temps comes between Thursday and Friday with a cold frontal 
passage. Good news is dewpoints should be more comfortable 
during this period.

Might see a trough setup near the OV or East Coast. Sometimes those setups are fairly active. Not extreme heat, but could be dewy. 

Bahama blue pattern...  

Pixel showers with narrow turrets that blind windshields for thirty seconds and lower the backyard temp from 84/75 to 79/78 before resets...  

Sometimes training though -

Kind of interesting ...

https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=local-Rhode_Island-02-24-1-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined

take a look at the fixated fog bank out SE of the Cape ...notice the southern edge seems to be permanently etched out of free space ?? 

I suspect that is demarcating a cold water/warm water interface, and everywhere that is fog-side is the colder SSTs ...
