BLOW HOT AND COLD ** SNAP AT ** STORM OFF

**Blow hot and cold - be changeable in his/her attitude or behavior.

 **Snap at - speak angrily to someone

 **Storm off - leave angrily 
Example

 Mike: How do you like your new neighbor?
Samantha: It's hard to say. She blows hot and cold. On Monday, she was friendly and welcoming. She petted my dog, Sally. Then Tuesday, she snapped at me about Sally being on her lawn and she stormed off.
