and the ECM, so summer may not yet be dead,

I'd say it is, dead that is. The length of the cyclonic spells between the
brief settled spells April/May - the present has been far, far greater
thaqts without resorting to data only my observation.

MY INTERPRETATION::
Based on that then and as the weather declines into August, as it seems to
be on the cards to do, even somewhat, you could take it that the chance of
any more proper decent settled stuff is going to be well into late
September/October even. So earlier darker evenings and rapid cooling after
4pm is whats to look forward to in any possibility of a settled late
September. In between and up to this point its worse of course as it'll be
cyclonic, which results in more clothes to counteract the rain and
chillliness and the closing of the curtains, switching ON of the lights as
our dreadful position of the sun in these latitudes cannot work as useful as
it once did.
