Pole beans not flowering

[Jeannine]

Racoons are visiting regularly now for the grapes and I see they have been picking my crab apples,fingers crossed they don't decide to try my squash.
I am  relieved the beans are flowering. Our weather has gone from roaring inferno to rainy and cool overnight so am a bit worried that this might be it for us, it is only mid August but it is not unknown, as long as we don't get frost we should be OK

Here the weather is crazy too.  Have never known 37C in my childhood before I came to England.  We got to go home from school early if it was 28C!  Well the kids would not be in school at all these days.  Having said that, we also had a very autumnal spell like you are having at the moment, Jeannine, before this crazy heat broke out. 

The weather definitely is changing in front of our eyes and it will test which of our varieties can adapt and which will not. 

And your racoons do sound like a pest you could do without.  Fingers crossed.
