This year reminds me of 1996, remember we had peak heat in late May and then a humid summer with a lot of rain but not much heat. We only hit 90 once in summer, and that was on the last day of August.
We also got hit by a 65 mph tropical storm (Bertha) after July 4th weekend whose center passed right over JFK. Got 7" of rain from that in the Poconos, that lasted an entire day. That was a Cat 3 as it approached the NC coast earlier.
