Sometimes, I wonder what the weather in Georgia is thinking. It's summer one day, fall the next and then, oh wait, back to summer. Anyone who lives in Georgia knows what I mean. We all think the same things when it comes to the weather here.
(Month of August.....)
1. “I can't wait until fall.”
All of us Georgian's fantasize about weather that doesn’t make you constantly sweat.
2. “Fall starts in September right?”
We always start to get ready for fall way too early.
3. “Alright, it’s the end of September, where ya at fall??”
By the end of September, we are expecting a little bit of a drop in temperature.
4. “It's October!! Time to break out the sweaters and flannels."
We all get our fall clothing out and start patiently (or maybe impatiently) awaiting the arrival of fall.
(Middle of October…..)
5. “Okay maybe we had too high of hopes then, but shouldn’t it be a little cooler by now. Or is it just gonna stay 90 degrees forever.”
How are we supposed to function in this never ending heat?
6. “All I want in life is to wear a sweater and jeans.
7. “OK, that’s it I'm wearing my fall clothes. I don’t even care what the temperature is.”
Dies from heat stroke.
8. “Why is it 85 degrees. It's almost Halloween.”
It's literally supposed to be winter in a month, and we haven't even started fall yet.
9. "I want to have a bonfire, but, oh wait, I forgot it's NOT COLD.
Bonfires are a classic fall activity, but it's really hard to have one if it's still blazing hot out.
10. "Oh, it's gonna be 65 degrees today.....MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED. Thank the good lord.”
We finally get to experience a little bit of cool weather and then the next day...
11. "It's 85 degrees again?!"
12. "THANKS FOR TEASING US GEORGIA."
But when Georgia finally decides to get its stuff together in November, the weather is the actual best. Fall in Georgia is full of temperatures in the sixties, vibrant colors, bonfires and lots of pumpkin patches to explore.
So even though Georgia’s fall is literally bipolar, it’s worth the wait.
