The People’s Calendar: When Does Each Season Start?

Interesting survey about the different markers – natural, manmade, etc. – that people use to connote the change of seasons.

For me, I know the “official” dates for season changes but my (very limited) list probably goes like this…

Spring – whenever snow is almost fully melted
Summer – when school’s out at end of June
Autumn – when school starts at beginning of September
Winter – whenever the first snow falls
