Summer Season
May

2016
My son asked me when summer begins and my answer, which is a good lawyerly answer, was “It depends.”
My definition of summer is June, July, and August. So to me, summer begins June 1. But that wouldn’t work very well in the southern hemisphere.
So I told him that, but I added some other definitions.
To some people, summer runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day. But that wouldn’t work very well outside the US.
To other people, summer runs from solstice to equinox – June 21 to September 21. My problem with that is that June 21st is the peak of sun so it should be the middle of summer, not the beginning. Go ahead and lookup “when is midsummer?” and you’ll see.
The other definition I could think of relates to farming. In that case, summer would be the time between planting and harvesting.
What do you consider to be the start of summer?
You observe days and months and seasons and years.

Couldn’t agree with you more. Keep it simple.
