Short answer: In the UK, we are currently in autumn (fall) based on the latest updates and standard seasonal definitions. Details:
- Astronomical seasons in the UK are tied to equinoxes and solstices. Autumn begins around the autumnal equinox (late September) and runs through into late December, so late October sits squarely in autumn [web results indicate autumn as Sep 22 to Dec 21 in typical astronomical definitions].
- Meteorological seasons define autumn as September, October, and November. By that scheme, October is autumn as well.
- If you’re looking at recent weather-focused sources, UK sites and school resources typically describe autumn as the period with cooling temperatures and more wind and rain, which matches October conditions in many parts of the UK.
Context notes:
- The exact start and end dates for seasons can vary slightly year to year, especially for astronomical definitions, but October consistently falls within autumn in the UK across common conventions.
- If you need day-by-day or regional details (e.g., London vs. Scotland), I can pull local forecasts or summaries for your area.
