If anyone understands weather in Evanston, it’s Katy Perry.
You enter fall quarter knowing that in Evanston there is no such thing as fall at Northwestern. One day it’s hot, humid, and you’re swatting mosquitos away.
And the next, it’s snowing.
But sometimes Evanston just hits you with 70 degree weather in the beginning of November
And so you take off your thick jacket and put on something lighter so that your walk from north campus down south won’t end in a sweaty mess.
You walk into class comfortable because you changed for the warmer weather.
And when you walk out, it’s pouring with 100mph winds.
And so you miserably walk back up north in shorts and no jacket or umbrella, and you’re thinking:

But then the weekend rolls around…
And the weather, no matter how cold, can’t keep you from dressing up

And as Northwestern students soon realize, there’s nothing you can do to change Evanston’s crazy weather.
