Highs looking a lot “ cooler” for Memorial Day weekend, low 90s instead of upper 90s, I’ll take it

Pattern May: gateway to everyone's favorite season

The 12z Euro is downright awful unless you love a summertime torch. Widespread mid to upper 90s on Fri 5/24 followed by most of the southeast SE of a line from S MS to Rome to GSP to Greensboro down at least to Orlando getting upper 90s to low 100s most or all days Sat 5/25-Wed 5/29. This would be historic even if the Euro is a few degrees too hot, which is quite possible.
The good news if you can call it that is that the heat reduces starting 5/30 as a weak cold front moves through. Of course, by that time, the damage will have been done.

Euro sucks as bad as the GFS
Going back to 1897, Macon has had zero 100+ days in May. The 12Z Euro says they'll have 4-5 days of 100+ and they haven't hit 99 in May since 1967. So, is the Euro to be believed? There sure has been consistency about this intense heatwave.
Edit: the 12 EPS supports its operational.

Some rain earlier. I think being west of the tropical system in the Atlantic will help sinking motion and promote dry air being on the “west side” as it gets a little closer.

This looks fun, as you’ve been talking about!
The only sliver of hope is, wasn’t the winters of 41/42 great around south for snows? The fact we could beat the record that was reached 3 times in 41 is great! Analogs FTL

WPC has in their extended discussion noted two things of importance here. The ridge in the SE has been trending stronger and they seem pretty emphatic that upper 90s/low 100s are looking more probable. In fact, this looks like some all time May records are going to fall this weekend into next week.
On the plus side maybe this will be a frontloaded Summer. Get the triple digit heat out of the way now so we don’t have to worry about it in July/August.

Jackpot with a little rain shower
I like the boundary running up US1 right now. That may be a good initiation point over the next few hours for a few storms. Otherwise meh.
In other news the d10 euro

We hoped last summer was going to be front-loaded only for it to last into October. Although we did get somewhat of a respite in August.
Taking a deeper look at the last several GFS runs through day 16, none of them show a day with a high lower than 89*F at ATL.
This is despite the ridge flattening.

Summer is coming...
Fixed!
