Default Why are my tomatoes not ripening?

I am enjoying a day off today, and puttering in the garden, and getting
a little nervous with the chilly temps over the weekend... My roma
tomatoes have ALOT of fruit, but not a single red or even pink tomato
as of this morning. My Sweet 100's have produced many MANY fruit, and
while they're ripening ever so slowly, at least we're able to get a
little harvest out of them (less than 10 each day are ripe on 4
plants)

I also am growing 3 varieties of peppers, Jalapeņo, Sweet Italian, and
regular bell peppers. the fruit looks great, but nothing is turning
red

Is anyone else in MA or NH having this issue?


Heck, I'm in California, north of San Francisco, and we're having this
issue.
