Labor Day is still two weeks away and that puts this outlook in the “speculation” phase; however, there are interesting and somewhat consistent signs of an “omega” blocking pattern in the upper atmosphere over North America which is more typical of winter or spring.

Following the passage of a cold front, a more comfortable air mass has pushed into the Mid-Atlantic region, but it doesn’t come completely on the dry side.
