Not strictly First Light seeing as the sun is behind clouds rather than coming over the horizon, but close enough.
The mornings are drawing in. Dawns early light is beginning to catch up with me. When I had to go the dentist on Monday, the hygienist was talking about Autumn starting next week. I must admit I didn’t think that was right. I’ve just done that usual thing of googling when does autumn start.
It turns out that Astronomical Autumn starts when I thought it did with the Autumnal Equinox, well the day after equinox is 22 Sep, with autumn starting on the 23rd. It turns out that Meteorological autumn begins a few weeks earlier on 01 September. Met Autumn always begins on that date.
I keep an eye on the temperature as long as it stays around 15C I’m not thinking of going into autumn clothes. This morning it was 13.4C, I think that’s close to the lower limit. I’m not sure what the lower limit is, but it’s when I don’t feel able to go out in my summer clothes. As of this morning, not quite there yet.
