Sun’s out!

Up to 59°

It's really like it begins now...  From this point on you're gaining a little more summer vibes every day. 

Front on Thursday is a whisky variety ( severe?) and it's mostly a dry line ...setting stage for a synoptic roll out and the heat arrives.

I think we'd all prefer a region-wide derecho vs. another 2011 or 1953

2011 was the most unceremonious break I can recall.  It wasn't a terribly long heat ordeal.  ...Took maybe 2 or 3 days, but on that 3rd day my car's dash temperature read 108 F on Rt 9 at 55 mph just west of Framingham, obviously that's owing to sun dumping into a blacktop park down there in that 1 story brick and mortar sprawl.  NWS sites were 100 to 101 so ...  At noon, DPs were close to 70 with temperatures already 96, then mid afternoon right at about 100 ... the DPs just shrank away.   KFIT was left at 100 with a DP of 48... what?   Meanwhile, HFD was still something like 101/74.   Some sort of a quasi dry line had moved passed and evac'ed it all away.  It was still hot as hell but the truly oppressive evening that day ended up down around southern zones and the Tristate region.   Even though it was mostly a DP loss, I do think that maybe 2 deg of F potential escaped with it. It seemed so, because when the DP crash happened, temperatures stayed the same. Usually you lose DP in a kinetically charged air mass and you go up a degree or two... I suspect there was a non-descript/ poorly or non-analyzed weak "cool" boundary.  

Because of these aspects, I've always thought that day in July 2011 left a little on the field and wasn't truly maxed

I don't think I saw one cumulous cloud during that transition, either.  The next day was bone dry at 83 or something banal
