One thing that's nice about this ridge is that it's an entirely midlatitude feature. There's no 4CH component at all, in fact there is a weak trough over that part of the country. I think that is why we are able to see more ways to break it down easily and reintroduce troughing. If we were dealing with a huge, sprawling high with connections down to CA and AZ we'd probably be staring right down the barrel of perma-summer once more.
Obviously we'll have to deal with it eventually as its presence and transient influence on the region is normal Summer climo. But the fact we are not seeing it yet, combined with the recently re-aquired ability in the 2020s to get substantial troughing regimes into AMJ, give me hope that the core of the warm season is still a ways away.
They may lose it anyway. That RINO Mike Gallagher could've retired just a little sooner so they could have him replaced by another Republican. Many believe he waited a bit longer on purpose and I wouldn't be a bit surprised some RINO's want to give Dems control of the House before election day so that they can nullify the electoral vote via the 14th Amendment. He could've been bribed as well.
