Weather is so bizarre, 70s and 80s for 8 consecutive days in Chicago now it's going down to 30s

It's not right. The poor plants and wildlife are so confused. Oh and it doesn't feel right to me either.

5. i have often had that conversation. it is cold, or snow or rain and they say bad weather.....

9. Me too

When it's cold you can bundle up in as many layers as you want. When it's hot you can't remove your sweaty skin. I'll take the cold.

6. I agree. I hate summer heat. I am a winter person.

Of course, I live in Georgia where we do not have bitter winters. But this year we have not had winter. It seems fall just jumped into spring. I am worried that summer is going to be brutal.

a hard winter, cold..... clear into spring.

2. It doesn't feel right at all and makes me uneasy. It feels like the start of a horror film.

3. The apples are in bloom...maybe frost tonite, looks like an overnight freeze on Thurs.

Maybe it stays in the low thirties and we get apples this year.

7. Yep. The high in Detroit was 71 today.....but the low is supposed to reach the mid-30s tonight.

After being in the 80s for much of last week. Kraaaazzzzeeee.

8. I can't wait for the cold front

It's too damn hot! I don't recall ever having to run my AC this early in the year.

11. It's been pretty crazy

Hell, at this rate there might be Ivy on the wall for the opener at Wrigley. I'm not sure if that's ever happened.

12. I was just in Chicago - was very surprised on how hot it was..

Definetely not a suit-wearing weather.

I was literally sweating every day, even sleeping on the bed in a non-AC'ed room was tough.

13. I'm glad it's dropping back down.

The change was too sudden and way too early. I live in a condo that has hot water heat and it was difficult for several days until we finally decided to shut down the boiler early and just deal with the remaining cool days over the next few weeks.

Now that we're getting back to more seasonal temps, the sleeping's a lot better, and for that, I'm thankful.
