When used generally, the seasons (summer, spring, fall or autumn and winter) are not capitalized because they are not proper nouns. When seasons are used generically, make sure to use them in all lower case. Consider the following examples:

Example 1: The temperature in Michigan drops considerably in the fall, and in the winter, the temperatures are sometimes below zero degrees Fahrenheit.

Example 2: Last summer's humidity levels were higher than normal.

Example 3: The best time to plant your garden is in the spring.

Seasons as proper nounsWhen seasons are part of a proper noun, they are capitalized. Consider the following examples:

Example 4: The 2012 Summer Olympics are in London, England, and they include (among many others) the summer sports of diving, Field Hockey, Basketball and gymnastics.

Example 5: Winter Semester 2011 was a tough semester for her because her winter schedule consisted of 20 credits.
