They start officially the dates Italian said but in the last years some changes have been felt, last June was not very hot and October is usually hot (which is Autumn)
Some people were on the beach during Christmas holidays 2 weeks ago.

Tarot cards are nonsense, but my gypsy fortune teller knows all.

Why do you say that?
Your definition (astronomical) is the one that is used in North America by the public as well as by meteorologists but I am not comfortable with it and I suspected that it would be different in Europe. I know that meteorologists there go with the 1st of the month definitions, and the poll suggests the public does as well...
