95° has been the average max last decade after August 25th at Newark. But it’s been a challenge since 1993 reaching 100°. Must be related the summers getting wetter. Had the 2019 early October flash drought been a month earlier we would have done it.

Historical:
 

1787 - Tornadoes were reported in Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. Wethersfield CT was hard hit by the tornado outbreak. (David Ludlum)

1946 - Saint Louis, MO, was deluged with a record 8.78 inches of rain in 24 hours. (The Weather Channel)

1967 - The sundance fire in northern Idaho was started by lightning. Winds of 50 mph carried firebrands as much as ten miles in advance to ignite new fires, and as a result, the forest fire spread twenty miles across the Selkirk Mountains in just twelve hours, burning 56,000 acres. The heat of the fire produced whirlwinds of flame with winds up to 300 mph which flung giant trees about like matchsticks. (David Ludlum)

1983 - Hurricane Alicia formed on this day and was the costliest tropical cyclone in the Atlantic since Hurricane Agnes in 1972. It struck Galveston and Houston, Texas directly, causing $2.6 billion (1983 USD) in damage and killing 21 people. This storm was the worst Texas hurricane since Hurricane Carla in 1961. Also, Alicia was the first billion-dollar tropical cyclone in Texas history.

1987 - Thunderstorms developing ahead of a sharp cold front produced severe weather in the Upper Midwest during the afternoon and evening hours, with Minnesota and eastern South Dakota hardest hit. A thunderstorm in west central Minnesota spawned a tornado at Eagle Lake which killed one person and injured eight others. A thunder- storm in eastern South Dakota produced softball size hail at Warner. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

1988 - Thirty five cities in twenty states in the north central and northeastern U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date, including Lamoni IA and Baltimore MD, where the mercury hit 105 degrees. Temperatures 100 degrees or above were reported in twenty-two states. Pierre SD was the hot spot in the nation with a high of 114 degrees. Bluefield WV reported eight straight days of record heat. (The National Weather Summary)

1989 - Evening thunderstorms in eastern New Mexico produced wind gusts to 66 mph at Clovis. Evening thunderstorms in West Texas produced baseball size hail around Hereford, Dimmitt, Ware and Dalhart. (The National Weather Summary) (Storm Data)

First time since 1955 that August opened with a 100° first week followed by a tropical storm which broke the heat.

Euro is very wet for this weekend into Monday 

Probably  have to rely on convection for rains next few weeks as the tropics look quieter after Ernesto. We’ll see if one of the waves can enhance the rainfall or maybe try to develop as we get closer to September.

Has it been a bit slower in The Atlantic than anticipated this year?

75 / 64 sunny with smokey haze.   Warmest day of the next 7 and clouds already into WPA.  Upper 80s and low 90s in the warm spots.  Clouds and showers Sat and more storms and rain Sun / Mon.  Cooler Tue  - Thu next week.  Warmer by next weekend and chance for a hotter period the last week as heights raise along the east coast with western heat expanding east.

Yeah, seasonal forecasts like the Euro just rely on SST and La Niña. They don’t forecast dust very well which is an inhibiting factor. But the dust usually relaxes in a September which could allow things to ramp up in September with the record SSTs and La Niña as we approach the peak of the hurricane season.

Sure looks it on the maps.  Or perhaps, "it doesn't matter what I think"  For someone that can post and look at maps yourself, you sure post odd questions. 

Haha. If you can't handle sass don't sass someone else over a similarly equivalent situation. Wake up!

It will be interesting to see the HREF once this gets into its range. The Euro has a weak secondary low that stalls the convection Sunday night. These have produced heavy rainfall events in the past especially in August. So it will be interesting to see the exact track in later runs.
