Generally I would say Autumn starts here in September, usually after the
first week.
Winter from the last week of November.
March is still a winter month, until maybe the last week.
Spring from end of March until the first week of June.
Having said that, the dates can be fairly flexible as I'm still waiting
for summer.

David,
Summer started on 30th June and ended 1st July, followed by the customary
thunderstorm.
You must have blinked and missed it!


What's a thunderstorm? Vaguely remember them from years ago, do they involve
lightning?
By some people's definition Dartmoor has not had a summer this year with
just a handful of days over 20C.
