It's possible, but the chances are pretty slim
Everything is relative, but the answer is certainly and unequivocally, no.

We call it summer 2.0. Starts in late September and ends around early March.

The only time I recall summer effectively ending by mid August is 2009. That may not ever happen again.

One thing is for sure. It usually cools off after Mid August, even if it's just a couple degrees. Late August heat is almost never as oppressive as July and early August heat.

We usually start taking the very edge off the humidity by then.

Seems like summer 2009 was not only unusually cool, but also wet/stormy. Think I remember it being an active MCS summer

Seems like heat late in summer and early fall usually has lower dewpoints.

It was very wet in GA in Sept 2009. Major flooding.

Worst flooding I’ve since in my lifetime.
I would completely agree with this. The rain that night was haunting.

I was working that night and I started to sense something wasn't right. I had never heard it rain that hard for so long. I was in Villa Rica. Then when I got off work late at night, I encountered roads that were covered in water.
I was just north of you in Dallas, and I remember the way my neighborhood was set up how all the water from the cul-de-sac above me would flow into my yard and down the side of my house... This time it was a river 20 feet wide and 6 inches deep, my entire cul-de-sac was a river flowing down to a creek that was above the road. The craziest thing I saw was a mud line along the trees 10-15 feet above the ground that went for miles along US 278 close to sweetwater creek where it dumped into a natural ponding area.

2 more days and then the Dog Days of Summer will be over.
Well considering CLT’s average high drops below 90 today, that’s probably right… because this has obviously been the summer of averages. Still think we see a day or two spike into the mid 90s before September
Y’all take it easy on @ChesterfieldCountyWx hes new, he’s a cool dude and a supercell magnet, yo post some of your pictures of those storms from this past spring Chris

Don’t do it , don’t be drawn into his bait . I’ve never in my life seen a person who reveled in his/her/it/zey/zem own stupidity and baited others with it .
Got to give them credit, nobody baits and sets a hook better

I think it stays hot and humid until mid-September

The last day is August 11
Based on the heat index being well over 100 right now IMBY and temperatures well into the 90s, I’m going to go with summer not being over.

At least the sun angle is a good bit lower now.
Can’t tell the difference at all
I can.
The upper 90s we're seeing now aren't hitting as hard as they did during that 2 week period in June, especially with the stiff 10-20 MPH breeze.
Summer seems alive and well here still. 95 degrees and heat index over 100.
central bama its here and HOT AS HELL heat index was 109 today
pretty sure humidity was about 500 %
alabama = the only place where it can be 62° and a feel like 110°
