Linguistic differences in the fall.

Our summer weather in the UK has gone downhill after a good start.
The Weather people are now describing it as autumnal.

I got to thinking what do you say in the USA, Fallish?
That seems unlikely?
In fact if you type 'define autumnal' into Google you get a [correct] definition from Princeton University!

No public school-educated Yank would even attempt to take you to task. We can't find it on the map!

Gooser:

Good point.

Rusty Chevrolet is great, but "Fishin Wit' Fred" is the one we sing every time we go out on the pontoon... .
