It is the end of May. Tomorrow will be June. It was 57 degrees overnight and although the sun is up it is only 62 degrees now. It is no complaint mind you, but observation. In general at this time of year I would expect it to be about 80 or 85. We have had two cool snaps - couldn't rightly call it a cold snap - but it has rained in May twice. Those of us who follow the weather are amazed and we have stopped talking about global climate change and acknowledged that we are living in the phenomenon.
It makes me uncertain. I have lived here all my life and I am accustomed to doing things at certain times. Plant beans two weeks apart to have a crop until September. Plant pumpkins at the end of May for Jack'O Lanterns. What does one do in climate change. It is getting too cold at night. The seeds are rotting in the ground. When it isn't cold it is windy. Change is a very delicate thing I think.
The nice bit about all this is that the flowers remain happy. In Arizona generally speaking nothing does very well from about mid May until the rains start in July, but as things are all topsy-turvee, things are still blooming.
