If you don't like the weather wait 5 minutes and it'll change (temperature, Chicago) - Temperature, sun, sunlight, rain, hurricanes, tornadoes, climate, forecasts, humidity, heat, snow... - City-Data Forum

It seems like almost ever state says this.

If you don't like the weather just wait a few minutes and it'll change.

The funny thing is many people in many states say this and they think their state is the only one where the weather changes so fast.

Have you noticed this?

This has sure been true in Houston this month! The only time the weather is consistent is in the summer.

Yep! I have noticed this.....ppl from KY,MO,IL,IN,OH,PA,NY, the rest of the 50 states say this.....

Every state in the Midwest/Upper South/Northeast/Plains and the Northwest has quick changing weather........which is like 40 states anyways. I think this is the most pointless saying.

Definitely a fact in NE Illinois the state I left, and oh so true here in Two Rivers, Wisconsin all year long.

I can drive over to Manitowoc (not even 10 miles and still on the lake) but the temperature difference always amazes me.

People are wearing shorts and tee shirts, Me sweatshirt and jeans. People say, you must live in "Trivers"!

Yes, it does seem like people all over say this. The phrase was actually "invented" (

) by Will Rogers and he was speaking of OK.

Yes, Texas weather in the winter does tend to be up and down, but it seems like this has been epecially true this winter!

Even, in a day, this morning the temp was 34 degrees F when I drove to work. We are supposed to top out at 80 this afternoon!

Yeah, 80!!!!

Usually this is not true in Seattle area. The weather here is constant. It can be 40 degrees all day and all night!
