Rainy and cooling down seems autumn in hearts. Maybe different depending on area

a week ago i could not stand in my back garden with my top off for more that 15 mins without burning .

Sunna, you're right mate.

I posted about how we're becoming a 2 season country, after reading about it and doing a little research myself. Although we are certainly heading that way, I believe we will have about 1.5-2 months of Autumn this year, MAX!! We hardly had any spring, so at most we'll have 3 seasons this year.

Within 3-5 years it will be nearly a weekly transition from winter to summer and again from summer until winter, if things continue at their current rate.

Did someone say food shortage on it's way after a few years of bad crops!

We're in Somerset, and we've not got that at all. Everything still thinks it's summer. Only fallen leaves are in the woods, and they're there year round. By November we'll be in Winter. Autumns and Springs are disappearing.

Horse chestnuts are turning rusty brown here already and the grass is definitely slowing down. Nice and chilly at night. I would say Autumn is definitely here.
