Sounds like a typical spring for Western Washington, and each year this
region manages to produce a few whoppers even though we usually don't
warm into the 80's until at least mid July and night time temps are
seldom above the low 60's. It sounds like it might be shaping up to be
a great year for pumpkin growing back there in MA.
