The start of August certainly looks as if it will be characterised by
low-pressure dominance. My forecast of that, for the 3rd August,
presently looks like that will achieve outcome and we're already
seeing the effects of that falling pressure in the weather changes
over the last 24 hours. After that, any ideas?

Hints of the Azores High ridging towards us at T240, on both the gfs
and the ECM, so summer may not yet be dead, but I'd need another 4 gfs
runs to forecast that. At the moment, it doesn't look good, unless
these hints can be translated into something more probable. The first
week of August looks decidedly cooler and wetter than of late.
