Cool Season in South Texas

I should buy a weather thermometer. We were predicted to get 100' today and now they're saying it's 78. I had read that at least some of the existing weather stations are not functioning as well as they used to or are in different conditions now than when they were established (say, over a parking lot now when before it was a field).

So much for peppers and eggplant! It's also raining just enough that you can't say it's not raining. Gotta love it! And if I run out and plant onions and carrots we'll be in for another heat wave!

I think I will try and hunt down some garlic bulbs for this year. I have the space and supplies and we sure use it.

I slept through that last hurricane, but I was assured by the natives that "it was no big deal" and "that tree hardly even touched the window" of the room I was sleeping in.
