| Why be the bearer of bad news-I need to vent! Just crazy monotonous days 73F~ every single day,fog breaks like clockwork to full sun at 10:30 am-set your clock to it too!
Not very bad as its sunny..not windy..and warm in the sun..but not summer like. The last warm spell was early June? I think Hayward must be getting close to a record of most summer days in a row without hitting 80f. If we didnt already. |

| Ditto down here in SoCal. We are 10 degr. below normal both at coast and inland. Setting 'low' temp records for July/August. |

| Here in socal, abc7 in LA said this could be the coolest August on record if things continue. I am enjoying the 80-95 instead of 100+. Almost everyday though its been breezy and thats not good cuz of drying out for fires. Just recently one day (July I think) the beaches set a record for their lowest high at 69 degrees since weather records been tracked. But I can understand it being cool at the beach... |

| Yes, and I love it! My DH hates it, but he doesn't get hot flashes, LOL. Wonderful to have fewer wildfires in the state, too. So much better for the air quality. |

| Save's water-I'm amazed at how much less water I'm using at 72f than 82f. |
|
| I suspect that some of my plants still think it's winter. My Xmas cactus is blooming, for one. |

| It's been the nicest summer I can remember. I have been transplanting in July! Renee |

| While my tomatoes are suffering, my pole beans, cucumbers and zucchini are producing like crazy. I figured when life gives us lemons, we make lemonade, so I'm pulling up the disastrous sweet peppers and starting peas and broccoli. (Will probably induce a giant heat wave, heh). I have to admit, I'm enjoying the savings on water as well. I'm only watering my veggies about once a week here in Sonoma County. And since my hobby is concrete garden art, these temps are just right. |

| its great for everyone except my habaneros.....no heat outside means no heat inside :( |
