Butterflies in December?

Our weather in Alabama has been back and forth also. I haven't seen a lot of butterflies but the lady bugs! All over my front porch. It was only a week ago I was shedding the jacket and then the next day you are hunting long johns. Not a big wonder everyone has been sick around here. I bet they were beautiful to see.

Being in a tropical country, I never actually knew when butterflies normally can be seen, but I know I see them almost all the time. With regards to weather, however, I have to agree with you that it has been acting crazy for some time now. It can get so hot with the raging heat from the sun and then followed by heavy rain that will last for a few short minutes or several long hours after that. There was a typhoon that passed by our city two days ago and just yesterday the sun blazed out whole day long, as if making up for the typhoon. It's crazy and really irritating sometimes.

Yes, I have heard about the Crazy weather everyone is getting and how it keeps on changing every day. Here it has not really been over 45 in the last week, but any day it gets closer to 50 or above, feels like a heatwave for sure. I really think this yr. the weather has been totally strange, and many times miss the more predictable weather patterns for sure.

Hai! It most certainly is. The super cold weather is finally here, but there are still hot days popping up. I'm not seeing any butterflies even though many of the flowers are still hanging around. Mostly there is a large flock of turtle doves which makes me start to think of "two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree!"

We have a warm climate year round here in Puerto Rico. However, December through February is considered winter here. The difference to me then summer time is that at night its a bit cooler, maybe the lowest would be 65 degrees, that I have seen. Otherwise its still warm during the day. I can't stand the cold weather at all and that is one of a few reasons I decided to live in Puerto Rico. I hope you get through the winter weather with little or no problems.

The weather I hate most is the spring here, which has a lot of heavy rain. Before each rain,there will be thousands of Macrotermes barneyi Ligh, a kind of termitidae, flying around anywhere with some light. I even could not turn on the light before closing the window every night. So terrible it is, dozens of termites flying into your room and they might off their wings and then crawl on your desk, your floor, your computer even your arms lol. And you have nothing to do with them except putting a pot with some water in it and waiting for them dropping there. = =!

It's funny you mention that. I was walking over to my apartment complex's office and I passed by the rows of flowers they had planted nearby. It was like a burst of butterfly action as I walked by. The high today was 69 degrees. It's supposed to get cooler next week, but so far it's been amazing weather.

Hi there, can't say that we have a crazy weather here as temperature is varies between 0-5 degress and was like that in the last couple of weeks, but last year happened something similar to what you experienced.

You are so lucky I never seen any butterfly for month. I live in tropic but the weather so cold and wet. Its rainy continuously and its hard to go anywhere if you don't have a car. I think there is something wrong with our climate never in my life dealing with raining really hard plus strong wind plus thunder. Maybe its nothing special if compare with storm in your country but like I said we had mild weather and live here very comfort so its quite strange to dealing with this kind weather.

Hi friend, good to hear that the weather is good there and you are seeing a lot of butterflies which is cute creature in nature. Here weather is very cool and we are enjoying it, rainy season here but don't have frequent rain.

Yes we are in the tropical belt of the equator,and now the summer season is going to start,but now a days one day it will be raining cats and dogs and the next day it will be hot with the sun scorching us.Anyway we are either roasted or drenched by rain.

The Spring bulbs are already swelling and we have butterflies too. We were even able to eat outside two weeks ago, although it is too fresh for that now. We have not yet reached the shortest day so the year is not on the turn! It is so easy to catch cold now because the sun is still warm enough for light clothes, but if the clouds cover it then the temperature falls immediately. We can go out at midday and be warm in a cardigan and then wish we had taken a coat when we return in the late afternoon. Crazy weather but I am going to enjoy the sun whenever it shines.

sure is.. crazy here in mexico as well. 55 yesterday and will be 35 today, then back to 60 on sat. Hope all is well there with you. I wish I had butterflies here.

It is really weird to see butterfly in December. I haven't met such kind of crazy weather in the place where I live.

I live in Bulgaria where the weather is very changeable. A few days ago the sun was shining and the temperature was 20 degrees but then we have some snow. I think that time is fairly volatile lately and can not tell when it's summer when it's winter and when there will be fall and spring. nice day!

No I dont have.
