Same here. The 4 varieties of squash, 2 yellow & 2 zukes, started slow after female flowers appeared and produced some. Then it looks like they've reverted to male blossoms. I irrigate and the plants are big and healthy looking- no chemical fertilizers.
This is the first time I've seen this. Usually, once we start harvesting we have to pick every day to keep up with it. The only thing different this year has been the high temperatures.

Allan,
We are having the same trouble with squash. We haven't harvested enough to bother with all summer. I've tried transplanting, and direct seeding with no luck at all. Our cucumbers are fine, as well as the pumpkins and winter squash. It is just the summer squash. The plants are small, the leaves turn yellow and it dies. I grow a lot of different varieties of squash and all of them are doing this. I've tried different locations, different fields and the results are the same.
We've never had this problem before, and it is really hurting us at market.
