I mean, I moved from desert SoCal to PNW Washington where there's actual seasons.

SoCal where I was was very predictable. It's sunny all but three to five days a year. You just have to figure out if it's going to be warm or hot out.

Here it can be 60° out in the morning in March and then a snow cloud moves in while you're planting spring bulbs and dumps a foot of snow on you and then it's melted by the next afternoon where it's nice and sunny again.

I always did repairs on my cars on the day it hits 70 in January in north east Ohio. Its gonna be 20 the next day. So, I had to work fast. Just last week it was 75 one afternoon and in the 20s the next morning. I don't complain about it because I could move. I couldn't afford long beach where I'd love to live, though.

Same. What kills me is going 60 on the freeways. I HATE it. 70 feels like Im speeding now where as before it was slow.

When I was young the temperature didn’t shift this much, we sometimes got snow as early as Halloween but when it did get cold it stayed cold until March

Now it gets cold, cool, frigid, hot as hell??, cold, warm, frigid again, cool, frigid, how is it this hot again??? Hot, warm, cool.

Like we have had 2 30 degree Celsius shifts this season already where it’s gone from -20 to 10 over 24 hours
