The point is moot when it comes to Florida, though. He was claiming the soil around Orlando was elevating low temps. If you look at that map you'll see those are Entisols (excessively drained). Not gonna be holding much water closer to the surface in that soil. Look further south where the cooler lows are predicted and you'll see poorly drained Spodosols. Soil makes no difference in this case.
Actually, you might have that backwards. Well drained soils create lower temps. Think Pine Barrens Long Island.
soil types make a difference with weather and crops.. You should start researching it, like I said.. pretty interesting once you do.
Here's a cool video that shows the different textures.

Warm and Humid for another week then a break then heat returns mid-end of August. I need to start looking at the pacific more to see a potential pattern coming up.. Just too lazy. Don't get paid to. lol

" I still feel the ridging going on over the Bering Sea between July 30 and Aug. 8 can translate to heat between Aug. 19 and 28. However, if you look between European weeks three and four, there is some warming occurring toward the East Coast, but less toward the Midwest. I feel there should be more red, more heat from the Midwest to the mid-Atlantic in week four.

That is not what I need to hear. :/
At least there's a better-than-even chance of him being wrong.

You're about on the northern edge there where it's so tough to get a push that far south especially in Summers. Rest assure.. can you believe September is little over 1 month away? The only thing is.. If that Sub tropical jet does indeed become very active I don't think that helps get that "push" of cold Canadian air down there. It will help keep daytime temps down with clouds and rain a lot but The Polar Jet stream and High Pressure will meet resistance and not push further south. The sub jet waves and moves around so lets hope for good timing.
