This has been the craziest year I ever remember for weather,
May was very cold with 7 nights of frost, above average rain fall and 3 snow days
June was wetter than normal with 1 night of frost, and snow flurries once
July, now this was the strange one, Hail the size of tennis balls, on 1 ocassion, Hottest July in 80 years, Very dry, only a half inch of rain. Strangest thing is the many nights of 70 degree low temps, almost 20 degrees above normal.
Now August, So far 3 days of rain, very cold high temps of 50 degrees F. and last night and for the next 2 nights we have a frost warning. This should bring snow flurries tonight and that will mean we only missed snow in July.
Petty sad when you can get frost bite on your sunburn.

I'll echo what you say Eddy. June for us was much drier than normal, which is odd. July was like an oven and dry dry dry, but the nights were almost frigid!
We just had a wicked thunderstorm go through an hour ago, but thankfully no hail. Just massive amounts of wind and rain beat the daylights out of my plants.

That electric blanket I got on e-bay for my pumpkin is definately going on tonight, course I'll have to fight my wife for it LOL!
Stay warm Eddy!

And the echo creeps to the Bay Area of California. Very cold for summer. I can't recall a summer like this in a long time. Days are really hot and nights really cold. Am I the only one that believes that the pumpkins grow most at night and especially WARM nights?

Ok, it got down to 1 degree Celcius last night, or 34 on the old scale. That was nippy!
