What unseasonable means
Odd for the time of year, like snow in May
In a sentence: It was an unseasonable day, with warm sunshine in the middle of winter.
Where it comes from: "Seasonable" once meant right for the season, and "un-" turns it around. So unseasonable weather is weather that doesn't fit the time of year.
