“I prefer meteorological winter — and the other three seasons: spring (March through May), summer (June through August) and fall (September through November) — because they are unvarying in their beginning and ending dates. This is essential in making comparisons between seasons (temperatures, for example) from one year to another. The data are always from identical periods of time.”

Tom Skilling, WGN-TV chief meteorologist
