I'm heard from so many growers, that the weather they're experiencing has been very strange this season. Way up here in the north, the highs have been in the mid 90's, and the lows barely dip down to 70. That is very warm for this neck of the woods. What has everyone else been seeing?

Smitty this summer so far has been the hottest in a long time. We have been getting highs in the 100's. The other day it was 110, 108, 106 and then last sunday it was 111. The night time lows have been in the 80's.

Highs mid 90-'s,,,,lower to mid 70's at night...A mild summer for us so far..I'm sure hotter weather is just a step away...

Don't try to tell the NE growers about "Global Warming"!!
Now ...they just might buy into the theory of "Advancing Rain Forests"! :>)

Actually some of the models for global warming have a couple areas of the world where temperatures end up being cooler - one of them being the NE section of N. America. Maybe you guys will have to start getting use to it????

Choctaw, OK

nights in mid 50's and highs in mid upper 70's. A few nights have been in the mid to upper 40's. But no rain like the east is having...dry dry dry...(but we got over an inch of rain tonight!) The next 4 days are to be cloudy and rain....we already had two days of clouds and rain.

No days over at or over 89 degrees this summer....last year we had 10-20 days of 89 or higher....its been great summertime weather for living conditions....but kind of cold for pumpkins...the night time lows are the problem. still managing to grow some nice pumpkins so far.

This summer has been a little cooler than average. Only 2 days over 90 this summer compared to 33 last summer. I love the weather this year just right for me.
