One day last week, we had a hard frost in the morning & took a walk in shorts that afternoon.

You remind me of something I used to love in the Darkover books - that on that planet, they would get frost or snow overnight, and that would be followed by a comparatively warm sunny day.

We don't have that kind of luck, usually. Yes, the temperature can jump or drop many degrees in a day - but we seem to too often get the kind of weather that starts out cold and stays cold!
