Chilly here in Connecticut also. I did get a good crop of patio tomatoes but the weather has stalled everything, so cut them all back and planted Garzania’s (annual on discount from Walmart) in the pots. They are an interesting flower as they open in the sun, close when no sun.
Feels like Fall like you said. 50 last night and not about 75 here today.
Went to the farmer’s market in town, not much there.
Grew up in NY- Hudson Valley.
Joe Bastardi called for a serious warming trend for the East Coast around the middle of the month
We're there now , so the heat should show up pretty soon .
Tonight's weather here calls for temps in the low 50's and mid 40's; definately not tomato maturing weather ! According to NOAA, we don't hit 80 degrees for another week, supposedly on Friday (7/23/14), and then we will cry for air conditioning with heat and humidity.
Time will tell because the heat will mature those tomatoes, and they will be comming out your ear !
Stay tuned for Saturday's Bastardi weather analysis
Even Obozo complained that the ocean water was too cold for a swim.
I wonder if that affects his opinion/agenda about "GlowBULL" warming
With all the rainfall over the past two weeks , and the anticipated heat expected in the Northeast, I imagine that there will be a short 'harvest season'.
Get your canning and freezing supplies set up for harvest.
Prepare to be overwhelmed !
