The weather here in Georgia has been increasingly erratic for the last 20 years or so. I imagine it's gonna get even worse with all the data centers they're building in the state right now.
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@thepeculiarpanda yes, and the more you guys mention those data centers the more it piques my interest. This is really scary times we’re living in, like is there even another time period on earth that has been THIS greedy??

It's crazy everywhere!
The more trees & bushes we rip out & build something, we change the environment.
Plants produce oxygen & absorb carbon dioxide.... people produce carbon dioxide & absorb oxygen, the more we do this things will continue to get worse!! The weather HAS GOT TO CHANGE!!!!!

@Edashh2399 cuba is nice if you enjoy poverty and hurricanes
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@Patriot96 lmaooo, no trust me there’s poverty in the us 😭 hurricanes in my area, not common

If it's any consolation, there has been a similar strange weather pattern across Europe this week.
As others have said, we need to make the best of what we've got. I dread the winter too and wish the summer were more predictable. I find being outdoors whenever possible helps. Even when the sky is completely clouded over, about 70% of the sun's energy is still getting through in day time.

Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@SunshineGirl yes actually, this is a lot of consolation. I posted this on Reddit, and there are some less than pleasant people on there, and even more who disagree which is fine. But it does make me feel like I’m going crazy.
Talking to you guys makes me feel like I’m not alone in my growing frustrations.
And that’s also very valuable information to me, I thought the heavy clouds were blocking out the sun almost entirely.
It feels like summer is just teasing us these days. Thank you for your time and your opinion on this matter!

I do notice this too I’m in Albany ny area. Three theories. 1) DJT is the antichrist leading U.S. into the layer of hell defined by being iced over. 2) as the planet rotates around the sun it gets slightly further from the sun each year such that it’s reaching the tipping point for climate and 3) weather control technology is being implemented to make it cool in order to justify green house gas production.
Other explanations exist but those three seem the most likely

Here in Oklahoma it doesn't start to warm up tell the second or 3 week of june. Then it is hot as can be in July up to the last week before Halloween
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@smileylovesgaming going based off what I experienced from the early 2000’s up to the 2020’s, by this time of year there would be few days dropping down to 50°. The mornings would start off warm, even with rain. It would be consistently and steadily transitioning to the next season.
Now, I look out the window and I’m like “wait, what season are we in again?”

@Edashh2399 do you live in the mountains
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@smileylovesgaming I do live near mountains, but I don’t live in them. I live in CT. Sorry it took so long to say that, but everyone’s making me feel comfortable enough to say it now haha

Eastern Pennsylvania here and yes, the weather has been really crazy this year

@AthrillatheHunt ever been to Knoebels

@Jonjdw no what’s that
Jonjdw · 51-55, M
@AthrillatheHunt it’s a theme park with free admission and free parking. And camping. It’s amazing that it’s still free admission and free parking.
Rambler · 61-69, M
At the beginning of the week it was in the 90s here. This morning it's 50 and raining and it's going to be rainy/cloudy for days and days. That's depressing but for me, better than the heat waves which are getting tough to deal with at my age.
Rambler · 61-69, M
@Edashh2399 yeah my kid can work outside all day, but not me anymore lol
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@Rambler you are blessed to have a beautiful life ❤
I guess all we can do is keep living out these crazy days until it’s our time

And now we are expecting a couple of days of blistering sun

@Edashh2399 we don't get flooding thank god

@Bill67 ohh wow, regardless of anything 50 days of rain and then sudden heat must feel like whiplash!
Bill67 · 56-60, M
@Edashh2399 the weather is our main topic of conversation
Keep an eye on the radar maps. When you see the clouds suddenly slow down or stop moving entirely then it is Summer. Until then you get what you get. Weather keeps rolling past at an insane rate sometimes and it causes all these temperature fluctuations.
Not quite summer yet but getting close.
Rain is a good thing at this point, and any snowpack in the mountains can help with water through the hot Summer.
Soon everyone will be complaining it is too hot.

For us it's been quite windy lately but otherwise it seems to depend on the year. Some are ok others are cray cray!

AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M
Freaking 90 last week and not even cracking 60 this weekend.
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@AthrillatheHunt THANK YOU! It’s just literal confusion! It makes no sense whatsoever, and I’m getting so irritated. I want to enjoy late spring/early summer like how I used to. It just isn’t the same.
Kiesel · 56-60, M
It’s been an odd May for where I am in Texas
Started out blazing hot.. but then we were hit with a uncharacteristic cold snap.. now it’s warming back up
Storm season hasn’t hit yet like normal
So that means it’ll visit next month

@Edashh2399 somewhat…
They seem like storm season here…
We’ll get hit with horrid hail storms about once every 2-3 years..
hurricane season seems to have a similar frequency… imo at least

Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@Kiesel oh man, we don’t get hail too much here but I’ve seen crazy videos of hail destroying vehicles and homes. The hail I’ve seen at most is about the size of like epsom salt grains haha
Kiesel · 56-60, M
@Edashh2399 we can see hail the size of baseballs… golf ball size isn’t uncommon at all either
meggie · F
The weather has changed every everywhere. In uk we have a heateave. But a few days ago we were wearing coats. Asyou say, it often feels like the seasons have blended together. We just have to make the most of it when we can.
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@meggie Thank you, it’s so weird because people are not talking about it at all. I thought I was the only one. But today with how cold it is I’m realizing so many things. Over the years, the transition from winter, to spring, to summer has not been consistent. It’s always cold, and there’s just not enough warm summer nights and I really miss them. But I guess you’re right, I mean what can we really do other than complain?
RedBaron · M
I’m in New York, and we had temperatures over 90 earlier this week. Don’t overthink it.
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
Yes, we did but where did it go? It keeps teasing us, and it seems like that more and more every year @RedBaron
RedBaron · M
@Edashh2399 No it doesn’t. You’re just experiencing recency bias.
greensnacks · F
Weather naturally changes with years. Human reckless exploitation of our environment, cloud seeding and other weather manipulation (fires, traffic, dams and whatnot) cumulate and affect our weather.
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@greensnacks yes there is another biblical belief, that when the Earth gets tired of us she will purge herself.
That’s why I feel like there’s more to come, because if she isn’t tired at this point I’m not certain what’ll do it 😭

@greensnacks I put my faith in the Almighty Creator. Any negative in the world is created by the father of lies - Satan ( his lowly name doesn't deserve to be capitalized).
We are coerced by the devil and because of the nature of the flesh we give in to the temptations that dirt-bag puts in front of our face.

creating these sorts of imaginary scapegoats allowing actual humans to shirk their own real-world responsilibity is a HUGE part of what got us into any mess we're in now. HUGE. COLOSSAL.
How convenient is it to just blame Gawd or the Devil or any and every thing we ourselves have done, for thousands of years!!!

BlueVeins · 26-30
IDK about summer coming later. If anything I would think it's probably the opposite. If it makes you feel better, I very much doubt we're getting a real winter next year lol.

PhoenixPhail · M
No, I don't think you're crazy. The weather patterns are constantly shifting. The shift seems to be extreme these days. I don't know that anyone has the answer. The weather has changed a lot where I live, too. All I can do is ride it out and try to adjust to it. I know it's not going to adjust to me.
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@PhoenixPhail you’re very right sir, all we can do is adapt like we are all so used to. I was just becoming increasingly frustrated, because I was wondering how is it that we could’ve possibly gotten to this point? And will it become worse and more obvious? I wondered if it could be cloud seeding or global warming, or whatever. Something that could make sense of all this. I guess we’ll just never truly know. It could be a whole combination of things 😭

Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@496sbc the weather makes it feel like it’s totally possible for it to snow right now too, that’s why it didn’t seem too far fetched when I read it

I live among the glitz, glamour and bright city lights of Toronto Canada and last year alone we had more days above 100 degrees Fahrenheit (38*C) than we've experienced in the last 15 years in total.
Originally, I'm from south-western Ontario Canada which is about a 4 hour drive west of Toronto and which lies even further south than Toronto and more specifically lies at the exact same latitude as central CT, USA.
When I was a kid growing up on our tobacco farm, our winters there were 90 days long. On the 91st day, my Dad would be out in the field planting crops.
In the last 5 years however, my Dad never even took his snow plow out of storage even once, simply because they had no snow to plow. Today, the summers are too intensely hot to deal with despite the actual outside air temperature not being very high.
It was only last week when the temp in Toronto was 59*F (15C), that I had to close my window blind because the hot morning sun at 10am was warming the granite on my adjacent countertop. Yet every single night last week, we had frost on the rooftops in the morning!

It feels like every year, summer takes longer and longer to arrive
The literal, objective opposite of this is the case. Summers being shorter is not something happening on Earth at all. I can't fathom where you're getting this perception. I WISH summers were shorter where I am!!! Droughts are becoming our new normal, and we're not even in the desert down here.
I saw a post of a snowstorm set to hit the Northeast this week
I'm not seeing any hint of this on legit weather sites. Never, ever rely on social media posts for ... well, pretty much anything at all. Certainly not news, weather, health, or any other info that actually needs to be factual.

I'll leave the cookie for you and your old buddy Edashh2339 to fight over.
You were already onto this person when you said to them, "I'm not seeing any hint of this on legit weather sites", which was factually true on your part. Such weather phenomenon did not exist during the timeframe indicated.
You should have known they were bullshitting you from all that was written, but obviously you're not as astute as you think you are when you never even picked up on their bullshitte yourself without me telling you about it.

I have no idea wtf you are talking about. Its nice to finally have a normal winter and a normal spring for once in several years. Summer isnt starting later, summer just has been arriving way too early and I fkr one am glad it isnt already 85 in frigging May likenjt was last year and the year before. That shit blows.
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@MethDozer I definitely understand. When I was younger, I hated summer because the heat. I used to say I like winter and fall. But these days my opinions have changed. I miss summer. I miss making memories on summer nights. These days, idk it just feels like there’s less of that.
Just last month, I took out my summer clothes. But now I’m realizing my front wardrobe is still sweaters and pants, and not even the ripped jeans because to me it’s just been too cold for that. Where’s summer?
Ugh, I wish I still felt like you. I’m getting so fed up though 😭

@Edashh2399 I complain come that july august sweltering heat but I do loke summer too. I just like easing into it over the wet cold to BAM! 85-90 in one or two weeks.
Edashh2399 · 26-30, F
@MethDozer that’s the thing tho, like the weather gives whiplash. One minute it’s cold like today, then the sun will come for like a day or two, then it hides again for a week. It feels like I can’t even be eased into it, and by the time I am it’s already fall.
I feel you though girl, like you’re totally validated! I was writing this post to see if anyone else felt like I did 😭 but it’s actually interesting to see people who feel otherwise
