Alas, summer is coming to a close because September 22 is, however unfortunate, the first day of fall. The season officially begins at 4:44 p.m. EDT during the autumnal equinox, when the sun crosses directly over the Earth's equator and both day and night are about equal. Fall will last a solid three months until the beginning of Winter on December 21, according to the U.S. Naval Observatory. But all is not lost!
December 21, 2012, at 6:12 am EST starts the first day of winter 2012/2013 (often just listed as winter 2012). Winter 2013/2014 (winter 2013) would begin on December 21, 2013, at 12:11 pm EST. In astronomy, each year in the Northern Hemisphere can be defined as beginning with the spring (vernal) equinox in March.
