Hi Angel
I went and checked and you are zone 5B which really is more about how cold your area gets in the winter.
I am in BC and am in ZONE 5a.
So we are pretty similar from that stand point, however I know living near the ocean sometimes you do not the the real heat.
I had a friend who lived in Oregon near the ocean and she would use tin foil to get more heat on her tomatoes to get them to ripen.
A friend here told me to put a rotting banana under them and they would start to ripen. I have found that this works and once you get one tomato to ripen they all seem to start.
