Review & Giveaway: When Does Autumn Start? John Lewis Giveaway
It’s almost Autumn and with the sudden change in the weather it pays to be prepared. Officially Autumn doesn’t begin until 23rd September, but you can almost guarantee it’ll be sweater weather before then. But officially when does Autumn start? There are two ways of determining when autumn starts. It depends on whether you are referring to the astronomical or meteorological seasons. The astronomical dates of autumn are based on the Earth’s changing position in accordance to the sun. It is determined based on the 23.5 degree tilt of the Earth during its rotational axis. This way of classifying seasons takes into account equinoxes and solstices. An equinox is when the length of the day and night are equal. Solstices are midway between these, when the sun is at its highest and lowest in the sky at mid-day.
In contrast, the meteorological calendar simply splits the calendar into four seasons, made up of three months each.
For those who follow the astronomical calendar, there are a few more weeks until autumn starts.
