The start of fall is determined by the position of the Earth in its orbit around the sun, not by an assigned date. This year, fall begins on September 22, which is typical for the northern hemisphere. The perception of fall starting later may be due to weather patterns or personal experience.

Why does DST end so late this year and who can I blame?

Why are there 53 weeks in 2011?

There were 52 weeks and 1 day in 2011. It started on a Saturday, which would be part of one calendar week, and then had 52 weeks after that, so there were 53 Saturdays in 2011 and 52 of all other days.

Why does February 6 fall on Sunday in 2028 but Tuesday in 2029 - 2029 is not a leap year?

The effect of an extra day of a leap year only happens after the 29th of February. Dates in a leap year up to then are one day ahead of the previous year. Dates in January and February in the year after a leap year will have jumped the second day. So the 6th of February fits into that category. You will find that in 2027 it was on a Saturday, so it only jumped one day in 2028, but jumps two days in 2029.


Does 2010 or 2011 start the new decade?

In a technical sense, 2011 does start the new decade. It works this way because in the Julian Calendar, there is no year zero. In our calendar, it goes from year 1 B.C. to year 1 A.D. There is no year in between. Therefore, if you count by tens starting from year one, each new decade ends with the number one. For example, 1+10=11. Clearly if you repeat that over and over, you will end up with 2011 starting the new decade. Some people will say that decades start with a zero because, for example, the sixties were from 1960 to 1969. It is true that the sixties were from 1960 to 1969, but that doesn't agree with the fact that there was no year zero, so technically that is wrong. So when someone says "sixties" they are referring to the years 1960 through 1969. But when a decade really starts in the technical sense, the last number will always be one. 2000 was the first year. We ran thru all of 2000. That's year 1. 2001= year 2. 2002= year3 and so on. Therefore 2009 was the 10th year or the end of the decade.
