But something like 100,000 people in Metro Detroit are still out of power. And its going to be 101 here today. I hope the power grid can handle it.

So far, my tomato plants are actually happy with this weather, they have grown tremendously in a week, but aren't big enough to have fruit yet, just budding now.
