Considerably lower temps/humidity than normal for end of June is the forecast for next several days. Hoping that means some good fruit setting

Where in NC are you, Jillian ?

Here in SW Columbus Cnty, our forecast for the next 7 days looks good too , with highs under 89 F. and lows in 62 to 72 range and the humidity is well behaved.
So yes, this is still a good enough weather for fruit setting. AND I see a lot of bees around too. That should also help some.

This was our 3rd day of beautiful weather. Low to mid 80's with lows in the low 60's. I hope it continues for as long as possible. I went fishing this morning for 3 hours and loved it.

Brutally hot here over the weekend in SE Georgia. HI over 100 all 3 days. Cooler this week in the 80s. Still humid though. Been spraying fungicide regularly.

Had rain a few days now news says it's back to scorching weather. I'll be spraying some copper the evening when the temps are okay.

Weather related but it's not rain. We've had our first West Nile Virus infected person in San Patricio County out here. The person has suffered neurological damage and it has not been reported if it is a male or female. Sad for this person.

Well, just came in from spraying copper this morning. It is 81 degrees out and79% humidity with the forecast as scorching hot today. I was going to spray last night but the temp was still 84 degrees just before dark so I harvested a few beans and tomatoes and left it at that.
