Summers like this one are especially brutal. Surely there must be some way of breaking up a high pressure system, isn’t there?

The issue is scale. Weather systems are *really big*, like… bigly big.
Imagine you are sitting on the beach in front of the ocean and the tide is coming in to swamp your sandcastle. Would you ask if there is a way to move the tide somewhere else?
It is possible to scoop water up in a cup but wanting to move the top layer of the ocean away is just beyond human capabilities. Similarly a high pressure system is a vast region of air that is already naturally moving to equalize itself. Humans just won’t really make a dent in that.
