No, not technically. 

No

June, July and August are considered the summer months when talking about the meteorological summer season because they are the three warmest months of the year. Astronomical seasons typically fall within these months, but are based on the position of the earth relative to the sun.

First few weeks of September over past few decades have been warmer then parts of June I would think. Also technically we have a meteorological seasons and your traditional seasons. So basically your point and @kat5hurricane points are both valid.

The rain not making it this far north was noted in both Upton and Mt.Hollys AFD's this morning. The more significant rain/storms for the NYC metro are aren't supposed to come in until Thursday night or early Friday. By Friday thru early next week the rain will be more convective so the models will have a hard time pinpointing where the heaviest rains will fall.

Given the south flow out of the tropics these amts could be higher.

If we’re relying just on the southerly flow, it would definitely favor inland areas as that’s where convection easily fires away from any marine layer. Where I am and immediate coast we need this system for tomorrow to produce otherwise it will be a bust.

I'm aware of that but the official start of summer is June 21st unless something has changed that I'm unaware of. 

Also, there's no way you can sell me on September being a fall month. It can be argued that we get more summer weather in September than June especially in the last few decades. September might be considered meteorological fall but the weather doesn't vibe with that.

As said before, both "summers" are correct.  While the past few years September has shown to be warm, I used to notice that when Labor Day hit, the temperatures would drop noticeably.  And from my school days in the 1960s and 70s, I remember sweating in the classroom (and not just because I was not good in math).

Bulk of the moisture offshore to our south appears to be sliding NE further away from the coast. Assume it’s being shunted by the ridging, see if that translates into a drier day tomorrow.

An extended period of generally cooler than normal temperatures is ongoing. No return to summerlike heat is likely through the remainder of June.

Overnight and tomorrow will see showers and perhaps thunderstorms. It will be unseasonably cool. Temperatures tomorrow will likely stay below 70° in parts of the northern Mid-Atlantic region. The unsettled weather will likely continue into the weekend.

Parts of Texas are in the midst of an extreme heat event. High temperatures through 5 pm CDT included:

Abilene: 103°
Austin: 103°
Brownsville: 99°
Corpus Christi: 103° (old record: 102°, 2017)
Cotulla: 115° (old record: 104°, 2022)
Del Rio: 115° (old record: 105°, 1951 and 1996) ***New all-time record***
Houston: 100° (tied record set in 1902 and tied in 1906 and 1998)
Junction: 110° (old record: 104°, 1953)
Laredo: 112° (old record: 109°, 1996)
McAllen: 107° (tied record set in 2017)
San Angelo: 114° (old record: 108°, 1934) ***Tied all-time record***
San Antonio: 105°
Victoria: 100°
Zapata: 113° (old record: 107°, 1998)

At present, there is little indication that this heat will move into the Middle Atlantic and southern New England regions.

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +2.7°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.9°C for the week centered around June 14. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +2.28°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.67°C. El Niño conditions have developed and will likely continue to strengthen through at least the summer.

The SOI was -26.99 today.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was +0.179 today.

On June 19 the MJO was in Phase 8 at an amplitude of 0.356 (RMM). The June 18-adjusted amplitude was 0.198 (RMM).

Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 89% probability that New York City will have a cooler than normal June (1991-2020 normal). June will likely finish with a mean temperature near 70.3° (1.5° below normal).

Amount of daylight also matters imo, which is why I consider summer June 1 - August 31. 

Huge decline in daylight Sept 1-21
