Which start date do these countdowns use?
These country countdowns use meteorological seasons: three-month calendar blocks starting on the first day of March, June, September or December. The start date repeats each year; each country page counts down to its next occurrence.
Astronomical seasons instead begin at an equinox or solstice. Those dates can vary by year and time zone, so a meteorological countdown can differ from an astronomical one. These dates describe calendar conventions, not a prediction of local weather.
