One cannot help but think a cooler, wetter summer is on the horizon for a large swathe of the US thanks to the wettest last 12 months in history.

CFSv2 500mb height anomalies for 5-day increments show ridging west then across the north through June. This indicates the potential for continued wetter and therefore cooler conditions for Texas and the central US. Warmest in a banana-shape from Great Basin to Middle Atlantic.

The fly in the ointment is the Southeast which has dried out considerably. Dry Southeast typically signals warmer than normal but wetter conditions over the next 10 days could remove this threat for early and mid summer heat.
