So with my original definition
Winter 0
Spring 4
Summer 7
Fall 1

Growing season 10

If you read my other posts and divide your (daily avg) temp range by three
Increments of 2.3C
Winter (10.7C-13C) 4 months
Spring (13C-15.3C) 2 months
Summer (15.3C-17.6C) 5 months
Fall (13C-15.3C) 1 month

September in london only averages 19.9 degrees tho so summer can be three months by that critera.

Ok, but in some stations it is 20C, Greenwich, in the centre for example, others it is 19.9C.

It's 0.1C, it's not a big deal.

Yeah under my criteria technically London has 3 months each season, though sept can be considered as fall or summer depending on the year.

Also if you do it by relativity divide temp range by three you get
Increments of 5.1C
Winter (8.3C-13.4C) 5 months
Spring (13.4C-18.5C) 2 months
Summer (18.5C-23.5C) 4 months
Fall (13.4C-18.5C) 1 month

I doubt anyone lives in oymyakon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oymyakon so I will do it

Original criteria
Winter 9 months
Spring 1 month
Summer 1 month
Fall 1 month

Growing season 1 month

Relative seasons (daily avg)
Increments of 22.1C
Winter (-51.5C --29.4C) 5 months
Spring (-29.4C--7.3C) 0 months
Summer (-7.3C -14.9C) 6 months
Fall (-29.4C--7.3C) 1 month

[ThatUsernameIsTaken]

In mid-Michigan, it's different every year, but I guess in general:

Spring: 1-1.5 months
Summer: ~3 months
Fall: 1.5-2 months
Winter: 4-6 months

*"Construction season"- 4-6 months off and on in non-winter seasons.

Here's proof that the growing season definition is meaningless.

The average high is above 20c from 30th May to 15th Sept, so that's 3.5 months of 'summer'. Also, Greenwich, Kew Gardens are both 20c in Sept.

his criteria of summer is arbitrary though. by more people standards in the world, people living where 85-90 degrees is "summer" in the majority of the world, london has no summers.

Who cares? I was responding to the thread, which stats in the very first post...

Winter: Average high <10C
Spring: Average high 10C-20C
Summer: Average high >20C
Fall: Average high 10C-20C
