This is happening to my sim as well, every couple of minutes. I even put a thermostat in the house with no success of stopping it.

Same Sim / save file as submitted above. He has not left the lot and does not have a pool.The only thing he did right before this popped up was have a couple Kava drinks.

I just started experiencing the same thing in my game, on one of my two new sims. Important to note - I have a completely vanilla game, and NO Seasons installed. Base game, RG, IL and freebies. No cc/mods - never used.
I have 2 newly created sims living in Sulani. Both are in the Conservationist career, one in each track (but the inappropriate sudden chill moodlet began before they chose their career tracks so doesn't appear to be related).
The one who developed the issue is a Child of the Islands, Self-Assured & Genius.
SpoilerNo skills at level 10 yet, no aspirations completed, concentrating on leveling logic, charisma & gardening. Was concentrating on The Curator aspiration, but started switching back and forth between Angling Ace & Freelance Botanist. Very low swimming skill, and was level 2 or 3 fitness when the inappropriate "Sudden Chill from cold current" started happening. Had experienced a tense moodlet from being dragged out to sea, also from having a shark come by, and the sudden chill moodlet - all appropriately in the water while swimming. Started getting the moodlet a couple of times when not swimming. Most recently got the "Sudden Chill" while using the toilet. Had made Kava and drank a cup beforehand. It had been at least 6 - 8 sim-hours since she was swimming.The one who has not experienced this yet is a Child of the Ocean, Genius & Active.
SpoilerNo skills at level 10 yet, no aspirations completed, concentrating on leveling logic, fitness & cooking. Was concentrating on the Bodybuilder aspiration, but has switched off and back from The Curator & Freelance Botanist. High swimming skill with level 9 fitness and at the final goal for the Bodybuilder aspiration. Has since achieved level 10 fitness. This sim had one "Sudden Chill" appropriately in the water while swimming, early on when he was lower skill swimming and around level 5 fitness. Has never made Kava, but has had a few drinks of it. Has not yet experienced an inappropriate sudden chill moodlet.Reading through the other posts, some similarities with others posting may be low swimming skill (instead of low fitness?), self-assured trait, Child of the Islands trait (although the ones that don't even live in Sulani or have never been to the world probably don't have that trait), and drinking or making Kava (again, doubtful but possible for the ones not playing IL). Since the Kava drinking will give different moodlets depending on what the sim is doing (drink it before bed, and you'll get the "well-rested" energized moodlet from sleeping; drink it during the day and you get the "calmed" happy moodlet), I'm wondering if the "sudden chill" moodlet is accidentally linked to making the Kava?)
**edit - I'm not sure about any other times, but I did notice the last two times this has happened for my sim, she was wearing her bathing suit even though she was not swimming. Would be interested if anyone else has noticed this?

As requested:
Saves in folder "SuddenChillBug-BeforeMoodlet" is from last save before the sim Sefina Kalua got the "Sudden Chill" moodlet. From this point, she finished fertilizing plants, then I queued her to Drink Kava from the fridge (to reduce the tense mood from the volcanic activity) and then "sail here", which would have had her leave the home lot and use her Conservationist canoe to go to dolphin buoy area on the east side of the map.
After drinking the Kava, before the queued "sail here" task loaded, she got a "calm" happy +1 moodlet from the Kava, and then got the "Suddenly Chilled" moodlet, supposedly from hitting a cold spot while swimming. (She was not swimming nor queued to swim; she was still on the lot) The last time she did any swimming was at least 24 sim-hours prior.
Saves in folder "SuddenChillBug-AfterMoodlet" is directly after she received the Sudden Chill moodlet. She still has the "sail here" task in her queue, and is standing at the edge of the home lot. It is apparent she was not swimming.
This is Base Game with Romantic Garden, Island Living, Holiday Pack & Grim's Ghoulish Guitar. No Mods / CC - never used. I do not have seasons or any other packs installed, other than IL & RG. In this case, she had a previous tense moodlet, I do not remember for certain but I don't think she had one the last time she got this "sudden chill". That one happened when she used the toilet, but I don't have a useful copy of the save.
I DID notice that the last couple of times this has happened, my sim was wearing her bathing suit, even though she wasn't swimming. Will keep an eye out for that in any more cases.
Let me know if you need any further info.

Unfortunately, this bug spread to my other IL sim. His traits are Child of the Ocean/Active/Genius, Conservationist - Marine Biologist, and had just completed Practice Pickup Lines was queued to go talk to his girlfriend romantically. Several sim-hours after any swimming, no bathing suit, has not had or made any kava, is level 10 fitness and has the long-lived trait from finishing the bodybuilder aspiration. The only thing similar between this time and the other sim's inappropriate moodlet is that both had another uncomfortable moodlet present before getting the sudden chill.
@SimGuruNick - I updated my share to include these save files.
Edit 7-11-2019: Update - my Child of the Islands sim just got a "sudden chill" on waking up and walking to the bathroom. She already had an uncomfortable moodlet from needing to pee. Moodlet solver does NOT take this moodlet away.
