Still pretty warm here on the mid-Atlantic coast. One of the barometers of the season are the cornfields around here. Through May and June, the corn stalks are growing until they are fully mature in July. We get some nice corn then, tastey silver queen corn! In August, the fresh corn at the farmer's market starts to become a bit more scarce as the corn stalks start turning brown. In september, they are all cut down, and the fields are readied for the next season.
Right now, I've noticed just about all the cornfields are brown as the weather is turning cooler with a series of cold fronts moving in.
During the summer, my water heater in the attic is rarely ever turned on. I will get a nice stream of 120 degree water in the evenings from the water heater because the water absorbs the heat in the attic. Cold water temp's are running in the 80's right now still cuz the ground is still warm. I'm thinking back to the wintertime when I turn on the faucet and get that chilly, cold 40 degree water that doesn't even hafta be chilled before drinking!
