Total crap shoot. Last weekend was gorgeous but if Hermine would have tracked just a bit farther west it could have been a total shit show.
This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.
What happens if I take both?

So how much of a difference did that 2 weeks make? Here are the averages and records for Thurs-Sun 8/25-27 and Thurs-Sun 9/8-11. There is a whopping 3.25° difference in the average highs and average lows. As it turns out the record high is higher in 3 out of 4 days in September than August.
Aug 25 61° 84° 52° (1971) 96° (1968) 0.12" NA
Aug 26 61° 84° 53° (1986) 96° (2007) 0.12" NA
Aug 27 61° 84° 53° (1982) 96° (1964) 0.12" NA
Aug 28 60° 84° 44° (1986) 99° (1987) 0.12" NA
Sep 8 58° 81° 45° (1984) 98° (1983) 0.14" NA
Sep 9 58° 81° 45° (1998) 95° (1985) 0.14" NA
Sep 10 57° 81° 43° (1998) 98° (1978) 0.14" NA
Sep 11 57° 80° 44° (1998) 100° (1983) 0.15" NA
In conclusion. That 2 week difference does not historically make much difference at all. Year to year there could be a big difference but it is hard to say which would be better or worse weather.
