September is just summer pretending it's fall. The high here for today is 101 (38C).

Cannot relate, it's still summer here. Except it's actually pleasant and not scorching

How does it feel like summer ended overnight? The equinox is still three weeks away.

When is it reasonable to start making reusable Halloween decorations? Got some new tools to try out.

Personally, I was feeling the same way this morning because it was hot af all of June, July, and August and then today is pretty cold. I am used to it being hot af here until exactly October 31st just in time to make my halloween costume too cold to go out in.

That would be nice, it’s the same temperature this week as it was last week here.

You can start making decorations any time you want, long as you're not putting them up out of season nobody will bat an eye

The War on Christmas must not end until Christmas withdraws to the internationally recognized borders of December.

Meteorological summer ended August 31, we’re officially into “fall weather season” even if we’re still technically in summer sun season

When counts as in season, especially if I was to make it a seasonal activity to do with friends.

We aren’t expecting a break in the summer heat for at least the next 10 days… and by break I mean highs finally dipping into the lower 90°s (~34°C).

I’m not a meteorologist, but it seems silly to arbitrarily define something as not the days it is. Summer runs from the summer solstice to the autumnal equinox which this year is on September 23rd.

A shop near me has had Halloween advertising up for about 2weeks already

Meteorological seasons follow the temperature cycles, defined by calendar months.

Astronomical seasons follow the solar cycle.

That’s why the weather you feel can often not match the “season it it”

It would still seem to make more sense to say that the end of summer was September 30 then. If anything we’re seeing a definition that needs to be changed due to climate change.

General consensus appears to be September and October and maybe a little bit of the beginning of November depending on who you ask

Halloween claims September and October

Christmas claims November and December

Another thing is, we are internationally using a calendar that was made for a specific zone so it makes no sense for some people

Thanksgiving won't survive another generation, two at most. November will be split up the middle between Halloween and Christmas. Halloween will also claim August, Christmas will expand through January and into February, merging with Valentine's.
