Ya that is some serious shit
We had some between last year that was between golf ball and racquetball, was thick in some parts of town and one or two every 40 feet or so out where I am, chipped paint on one of my trucks and missed the other.

Mother Nature could fuck us up at any moment no doubt
As I said, I don't know the cause. But it's fucked. Our weather is going back and forth between record heat waves and sever thunder storms/tornadoes.

I've seen that in a single day.
Well, I think you probably actually haven't and you're thinking of those days where it's cold when you wake up and hot by the afternoon.

What I'm talking about is all day hot, then someone flips a switch and you have snow and temperatures under 50. We didn't have any transition this year. It went from summer to early winter.

Single day temperature swings >50 degrees are a known item in parts of the country(Texas & Oklahoma mostly). In the early 90's I had a track meet in Sparks, NV where the weather swung from 80ish degrees to low 40's & hail & rain in about 90min. Paso Robles, CA also has regular temperature swings of 50ish degrees. But they're more in line with high of 105-110 & low in the 50's on the same day.

50 Degree Temperature Ranges (weather.gov)

Paso Robles, CA Weather History | Weather Underground (wunderground.com)

I do understand what is being referred though when the weather drops drastically in a week. That happens in some of the mountain & valley areas along CA coastal areas when high & low pressure events inland & offshore swing the marine layer. Those areas are specifically used to grow certain varieties of wine grapes as teh quick swing in climate impacts the grapes.

In Ohio we call that Spring. 60 one day. 30 the next. Then back to the 50s the next day.

But we don't bitch about it. Nor do we blame global warming climate change.

I know you're lying because there's not a single person in the rust belt that doesn't bitch about the weather.

Help me out. Is 30 degrees more, or less than 50 degrees?

Also, that's notable enough to be a news story apparently so "totally normal" doesn't really apply.
It's the weather bruh. She tries to make it all sound newsworthy. This little nugget doesn't exactly line up with your bullshit, anecdotal temperature tale - but I still felt it warranted a quick pic and post because it reminded me of your post.
