Half my bell peppers have died this past month and all of my remaining tomatoes are just hanging on with TYLCV waiting for the few fruits still on them to ripen before I can remove them. I still have a good section of one of my beds with some still fairly healthy bell peppers and if it does remain cooler and we get some rain they will keep right on making I suppose. Despite the drought this was my best year ever for bell peppers and my tomatoes did fairly good due to decreases in foliage diseases. I don't remember ever having a summer with such relatively low humidity.
