Philly still hasn’t hit 90 for the month of August 

PHL reached 91 degrees on the 15th. Outside of the usual suspects that run out of tolerance warm many locations north & east of Philly haven't reached 90 so far this month.

I wouldn't discount FRI especially for Philly south & west, they are still in the game for 90 degrees.

Only hit 90 here once the whole summer.  Had 3 day in April.   

This. I understand there is no scientific correlation, but it "seems" whenever we hit a string of 90's in April, the following summers are tolerable (1976, 2009).

I wouldn't call this a "cool" summer (speaking strictly imby), I would call it seasonably warm. Uncomfortable too with the high dews. Plus I've only been under one heat advisory so far (unlike our "hot" summers where we can go a week or more under excessive heat warnings).

Top 10 summer for me. Some hot and humid days so it felt summery. A month of full humidity for the tropical feel. However not so many hot days that it was unbearable and many days where it was mid 80s and blue bird skies. Most weekends were largely rain free so outdoor activities were abundant. 
 

clearly summers back is broken so we now head into our best weather season.

76/ 65 mostly cloudy, some breaks in the clouds but clouds will limit highs to upper 80s to low 90s in the hot spots.  If there are enough breaks could push mid 90s.  Robusto ridge 605 DM in Kansas City wanes, flow backs NW/N/NE and cools down Tue (8/22) - Thu (8/24).  Brunt of heat stays south and west ut flow comes back around to SW Fri (8/25) - Sat (8/26) but trough pushes clouds and showers into the area.  

Sun (8/27) - Wed (8/30) trough into the region - near normal tems.  Trough looks to cut of or split with more humid/warm by the close of the month / to open the next month.  Tropics active SE / GOM foucs.  Prior Euro runs had

Historical:

1856: The Charter Oak was an unusually large white oak tree growing from around the 12th or 13th century until it fell during a windstorm on this day in 1856. According to tradition, Connecticut's Royal Charter of 1662 was hidden within the hollow of the tree to thwart its confiscation by the English governor-general. The oak became a symbol of American independence and is commemorated on the Connecticut State Quarter.

Areas to our north will have only the 2nd time on record with the warmest temperature of the year occurring in April. There were a few ties. But our area didn’t get warm enough back in April to pull it off.

I recall 602 dm from around July 1995 and of course then there's July 1936 before upper air soundings. Want to bet it stayed below 603 dm with 120F readings on several occasions? 

Maybe those are just August records? 

It was only in reference to the Topeka sounding which set a new record for that upper air station.

Our H5 height
yesterday evening was 603 dm, the highest legitimate value ever
observed in a sounding here at TOP.)
