August 12th, 2021 - We report: we feel, ever stronger each time, the impulse to stop everything we are doing when we spot a rainbow. We stare at the way the light hits the rain for as long as we can to see it gently wobble. We notice it intensifying and weakening before it disappears.

October 14th, 2021 - We report one of the numerous rainbows that we have had the chance to witness lately. Rainbows occur most frequently in rainy situations, interestingly enough. There are fewer chances of a rainbow appearing if there is no rain going on at all. Absolutely fascinating.

November 5th, 2021 - We report: just a little sundog that appeared and disappeared very quickly. We looked for it for too long after it faded away, and we can now see red and green spots everywhere we look. Staring directly at the Sun is not a great idea, but we keep making the same mistake.

November 17th, 2021 - We report that we wanted to look at these clouds that were drowned in sunlight, and so we covered the Sun with one hand. When we looked up, right here, hidden in plain sight, these clouds were rippling with the whole colour specter.

January 5th, 2022 - We report: we can not count how many times either we or our expert have called "rainbow!" and eagerly pointed at the sky as though it would immediately disappear if we looked away. It is hard to even blink in the presence of rainbows.

February 4th, 2022 - We report a circumzenithal arc, a swipe of rainbow far above the Sun; these occur thanks to some flat and hexagonal ice crystals in the highest parts of the troposphere. Unlike our usual rainbows, their colours start with blue and end with red. Also, they look like smiles.

March 23rd, 2022 - We report: the human eye can only perceive so many frequencies of light, but they feel like an infinity when we are looking at a rainbow. Every nanometer of wavelength we can see is worth cherishing.

April 23rd, 2022 - We report: this is a small bit of a cloud, and an even smaller bit of the sky. To really see it, we had to block off the Sun with one hand, and then - only then were we able to see what makes this minuscule part of the sky so special.

June 20th, 2022 - We report a thunderstorm that skirted around the town. We counted the seconds between lightning and thunder on our fingers, trying to do the math to determine how close the storm was, until there was no lightning. Then, the thunder too boiled down to a low rumble in the distance.

September 11th, 2022 - We report: it is not about loving the sun, the sun simply is. There is nothing without the sun. But on days when rainbows appear - we can see the light shimmer through the raindrops, the rain falls heavier, and the sun shines brighter (and we do love the sun in this moment).

There's a thunderstorm here, it's pouring rain and the wind in the gusts can get up to 15 m/s (possible even more than that). It’s cool to watch when lightning lights up the dark sky and the wind wrenches the trees but it wouldn’t be so nice to be outside now

Learn about the difference between astronomical and meteorological seasons.

Traditionally, summer and winter solstices helped mark the changing of the seasons—along with their counterparts, the spring and autumnal equinoxes. However, today’s meteorologists officially use temperature records instead to draw lines between the seasons. So what exactly are solstices—and how have they been celebrated throughout history? Here’s all you need to know.

June 27th - We report: very hot today, so that at this late hour, the ground radiates heat though the sun is already low. Our expert, too, radiates heat, and we wonder when their skin got darker (today? No, over the course of this month, little by little every day). The sky is so big.

July 10th - We report about watching clouds go by and their shadows running across the fields; about stepping in and out of those shadows as they move, following them, sometimes walking ahead of them. On top of a hill, we are surprised to notice that the clouds are still not within reach.

July 26th - We report: the warm notes of the sun are remaining suspended in the air tonight. It is late, and the sunset is well underway; the streets are quiet, so it feels a little bit solemn, to witness the day going out like this. Counting down the last few moments of light.

August 1st - We report many months when we looked forward to the full moon, but missed it by a few days each time. This time, we found it by chance, felt a pang in our chest when it showed up through the clouds; suddenly emotional about it still being here, even though so much was changing.

August 4th - We report about the sunshine coming through the leaves like stained glass, creating shades of green within the spectrum of light that we did not realise existed. The afternoon is coming to an end at a very slow pace, watching the sun come around the forest in between branches.

August 7th - We report about the clouds that look the most solid in the sky - for how fragile and ever-changing clouds are, that is. There is a landscape there, one that nobody can ever walk, but it exists in this specific time and place. Sometimes, we wish we could freeze them like that.

August 9th - We report that we slept through the storm, but our expert told us all about it in the morning, how it caught the sky and did not let go until long after even thunder had ceased. How the lightning lasted for less than a second when it struck, but it touched every shadow each time.

August 10th - We report: we have lived hard and well every day and night since we were born, and we try hard to remember this in the pit of our heart every morning. That the planet spins, that we live there, that the sky is new every day, and that we have a lot more to do under that sky.

August 13th - We report about specks of dust suspended in smoke, or snowflakes caught in car headlights, or maybe stars in a cloudy sky. The scale is slightly different for all of these options, but in the end, they all look alike. We slowly make our way across the constellations. Goodnight.

September 5th - We report: the clouds are collapsing, over and over again. This kind of rain falls regardless of the seasons, it does not care about summer or autumn nearly as much as we do, about the days crossed out on our calendar. The afternoon goes on, soaked to the bone.

Of course in reality this is just a US/UK thing; in British English, 'fall' is the brief period in between and 'autumn' is the main season.

Autumn and Fall [Explained]

Transcript Under the Cut

[A monthly time track, showing the stretch of August, September, and October. The date of September 6th is marked now, with September 23rd marked as the Fall Equinox. September 1st is marked as the Meteorological End of Summer. Underneath the track there are labels for the seasons - Summer ends at September 1st, which is then labelled as Autumn until the Equinox wherein a separate season labelled as Fall is from the Equinox onwards.]

Caption: Now that summer is over, the first day of fall is just a few weeks away!

The Southern Hemisphere, where it’s winter, has been really hot too

Brazil, Argentina, South Africa, and Australia had heat waves in the past few months. Now spring begins.

It’s been a hot, brutal, record-breaking summer across much of the world, and it’s not quite ready to let go as late-season heat waves bake parts of the United States, the United Kingdom, North Africa, and the Middle East.

The long goodbye is a fitting cap to a season of deadly heat that contributed to severe drought in some areas and torrential rainfall in others. High temperatures also set the stage for wildfires in Greece and Turkey, Canada, Hawaii, and Louisiana.

But at least people north of the equator can look forward to some relief as autumn and winter set in. The 850 million people in the Southern Hemisphere, on the other hand, are emerging from some of their hottest winter temperatures on record and bracing for even more heat as the warmer seasons begin.

In fact, the weather was pretty much like summer in June, July, and August across parts of South America, Africa, and Australia. Peruvians went to the beach last month as temperatures reached 82 degrees Fahrenheit. Similarly balmy weather engulfed Paraguay and Chile. Buenos Aires, Argentina, reached 86°F, the hottest August temperature in at least 117 years. The heat was downright dangerous in Brazil as thermometers ticked above 100°F. Australia’s Bureau of Meteorology confirmed this month that Australia experienced its hottest winter since record keeping began more than a century ago. Even down near the South Pole, warmer air and water have led to the lowest sea ice extent on record around Antarctica.

“Some of these set new records by a large margin, also known as ‘record shattering’ extremes,” explained Michael Grose, a senior research scientist at CSIRO, Australia’s government science agency, in an email.

Do you know where Cosmos flowers get their peculiar name from?

Yes, it's a reference to the other type of cosmos...

Spanish priests found this flower in Mexico and were struck by their beautiful & orderly arranged petals, reminding them of the beauty found in the order of the cosmos.

...And of course, I can't help but think about the reason why Lilie named her daughter like that.

The most obvious reason is of course the meaning that the name takes when written in Japanese. 秋桜, a "cherry blossom of autumn".

As to indicate the inevitability of Akiho and Sakura's meeting, the power of hitsuzen, and how much they would influence each other's lives, as each other's counterparts. Spring and Autumn. Similar warmth, and yet distinct.

Lilie of course knew all of this, so she didn't miss the chance to name her daughter after the most distinctive flower in autumn. (Curious fact, Akiho is born on September 18th, when technically in the northern hemisphere it's still summer for 3/4 days! But going by meteorological seasons it's already autumn)

And yet, I also want to think that Lilie chose that name for its intrinsic meaning too.

I'm pretty sure that the moment Lilie saw her, she knew the baby girl would've never developed any magical power. Lilie was that powerful, she certainly knew. She might have already known from her foretelling dreams, although I'm not inclined to follow this theory.

So I like to think that she, actually both her parents wanted to bestow on her a name that could tell her in every moment of her life "you are beautiful and perfect as you are, to us. Everything in you is orderly and exactly as it's meant to be", exactly like the universe and the flowers that were named after it.

Cosmos are also resilient flowers that can grow beautifully everywhere, in most conditions with little care and little water. They grow very tall and if you cut the spent flowers they re-bloom stronger than before. The only thing that can kill them is frost. And I can't help but associate it with the ice cold brought by the loss of the most important person, indicated in the story itself with the final part set in winter. (Clamp themselves confirmed that the change of the seasons in Clear Card follow a certain change in the plot itself)

I honestly can't think of a more perfect flower for Akiho.✨🌼

Cyno: Tighnari. what happens when winter arrives.

Tighnari: Cyno i’m so fucking sick of your jokes. they shit me up the fucking wall. i want you out of my house and out of our child’s life. you are no longer welcome anywhere within a 100km radius of me. If i see you i will not hesitate to get your ex daughter to bite you!

Cyno: Autumn leaves.

Cyno: you see this joke is funny because In the northern hemisphere winter officially starts on December 21 (winter solstice, astronomical winter), but for many places in the north, it is already cold. Did you know that there is more than one way to mark the start of winter? Meteorologists, people who study the weather, talk about meteorological winter which starts on December 1. When talking about seasons, winter comes after fall; fall is also known as autumn. In the autumn, leaves change colors and fall to the ground as the trees get ready for the winter, and the following spring. Autumn leaves are beautiful! Leaves, though, has another meaning. When something leaves, it goes away. For example, the teacher leaves home to go to work, and the student leaves school to go home. This joke is funny because it plays with two meanings of the word leaves: The tree has leaves that change colors in the autumn (autumn leaves), and autumn leaves, or goes away, so that winter can come.

Tighnari: get out.
