One is defined by the Earth's axis and orbit around the Sun and the second is a fixed date which is used by meteorologists for consistent spacing and lengths of the seasons.
Usually, when we talk about the first day of autumn we are referring to the astronomical autumn which is defined by the Earth's axis and orbit around the Sun. The astronomical calendar determines the seasons due to the Both equinoxes and solstices are related to the Earth's orbit around the Sun. Meteorological seasons are derived by splitting the year into four periods made up of three months each.

Thank you for your article. Summer 2. Fall Halloween is my favorite holiday. Winter by far, my least favorite season. Thank you so much for publishing this article. I've been wondering why the start date of a season has changed from my childhood and now I know!
The rest of the article was equally interesting and I appreciate it very much. Autumn, Summer, Spring, and last of all winter. As an aside, your calendar season start dates are off by one day. Each needs to be moved one day later in the week. My favorite season is fall, because of the cool weather, shorter days, and foliage. My least favorite is summer, because of the heat, too much sun, sweat, and insects. In order:. My favorite season is winter.
I love everything about it. The cold weather, the snow, shorter days, and most importantly the clothes you get to wear lol. Oh, and don't forget the boots boots! Although, fall is by far the prettiest season and a very close second for me. Spring because I like the rain and I live watching all of the plants and flowers bloom.. Spring time was a preparation for the summers harvest. The fields were so green and beautiful. Summer saw the entire family work together, bringing in the harvest.
You could see your labor revealing itself into crops to sustain your family. In autumn, fields were plowed, leveled, and new crops planted. By October, rains came, and the labor slowed. The beautiful maple trees changed their color. Cutting dead oak trees would provide heat a year from now. Green wood less than a year old smells in the air. Winter was time to rest for all of us not attending school. Snow occasionally fell during Christmas.
School functions, State Fairs, Church, and occasional travels to Southern California in the Winter was always welcome. Living in Oregon, you experience all four seasons. It is wonderful. I have epilepsy so I can't be in the heat because of my sezures. So my favorite season is winter. I love going outside.
It's fun. My family thinks I'm crazy because I love the cold so much. I live in Alabama. The summer is awful. I hate hot weather and the AC bills. Used to like it as a child, but school was out. We rarely get snow but when we do everyone enjoys it. My husband was from Pa.
Night terrors are very different from nightmares. This behaviour occurs on waking abruptly from deep, non-dream sleep. Night terrors Night terrors are common in children aged between 3 and 8 years old. Their eyes will be open, but they're not fully awake. Why they happen Night terrors are more common in children with a family history of night terrors or sleepwalking behaviour.
A night terror attack may be triggered by anything that: increases how much deep sleep your child has, such as tiredness, fever or certain types of medication makes your child more likely to wake from deep sleep, such as excitement, anxiety , sudden noise or a full bladder What you should do The best thing to do if your child is having an episode of night terrors is to stay calm and wait until they calm down.
Wake your child 15 minutes before the anticipated time of the episode every night for 7 days. When you should seek help Most children eventually grow out of night terrors. Your GP will be able to check whether something that's easily treatable is causing the episodes. For example, large tonsils could be causing breathing problems at night and waking your child. Nightmares Nightmares are common in children aged 3 to 6 years old.
Most children grow out of them. Your child may wake up and be able to remember and describe the dream to you. What you should do Talk to your child to find out whether anything is worrying them that could be triggering their nightmares.
