It wasn't the extreme weather that I was expecting, however. Yesterday we experienced our biggest drop in temperature (this year) from the hottest part of the day to the coolest part of the night. The peak temperature was 35.1 and the low point was 17.4 (only 0.4 higher than the 2000 - 2009 record).
During this month so far, the discrepancy from peak to low point has averaged 6 degrees, with a record of 10.3 degrees. Compare that with yesterday's 17.7 and you can see why my plants are looking quizzical (either that or I'm going a little loopy).
