abnormally
In irregular fashion
Abnormally means in a way that deviates from what is normal, typical, or expected.
The word carries a slight negative connotation—something abnormally large suggests excess, while something abnormally quiet hints at something wrong: The streets were abnormally quiet for a Saturday night.
In medical contexts, abnormally often signals concern: Her blood pressure was abnormally high.
