LOL! 
Did that last week!
Fall here on the Gulf coast is just summer MkII, it can be in the 50s in the morning, then get up to 90 by afternoon. It's when people make the transition from gripes about how hot it is all the time, to gripes about how 'cold' it is in the morning.
At the renfaire last weekend, it was about 60 degrees in the morning, heading to about 85 by lunchtime. I was grumbling that I wished it would be cooler! But this fellow in jeans and a hoodie with his hands stuffed in his pockets like he's freezing asks me "aren't you cold in that?" in a real condescending way. I just said "No, I've got like 21 feet of wool wrapped around my butt, how are those jeans treating you?"
