Joe Joyce says the coming heat wave means business:
The western Atlantic Ridge, which brought us our last 5 day heat wave recently took a break. Well, it's BAAACK!

A friend of my is a meteorologist and his email .sig includes the following: "What other profession can you be wrong 50% of the time?"
Even they admit that there is some art to this science. :)

This is some kind of New England thing AFAIK, never saw it named this in the mid-Atlantic where I grew up.
