Will October be the new September?

        We are in a stretch of Chamber of Commerce weather here in the north country of NY.   Lows in the upper 40's and highs in the upper 60s to low 70s for days on end.   After a cloudy, rainy summer this weather is nearly ideal.  The long range forecast features more of the same.   The late season vegetables are doing well, except for the spinach planting which is suffering in the shade most of the day.  Next year I'll plant late spinach in a sunnier area of the yard.

      I have a feeling the El Nino system controlling global weather will continue the present status well into October this year.   That would mean no frost before mid to late October.  Unfortunately, there won't be enough sunlight by that time to grow anything but grass.
