BRIGG IN BLOOM 2019 STILL ADDING COLOUR IN SEPTEMBER AS AUTUMN DRAWN NEAR



September has arrived but Brigg in Bloom 2019 is still adding colour to the town centre, as it has throughout the summer.
This view, taken on a sunny Tuesday morning (September 3), shows attractive flowers on railings alongside the Old River Ancholme and the grade two listed County Bridge beyond.
There are many other planters, tubs and hanging baskets within the town centre and at other locations, including the A18 (Barnard Avenue and Bridge Street).
Brigg in Bloom is the work of volunteers, supported by councillors and the Town Mayor.
We heard a weatherman on TV the other day heralding the arrival of autumn.
He was using the forecaster's definition of the season (September 1); to most traditionalists, however, autumn does not start until the equinox has taken place.
In 2019 that falls on Monday, September 23. Some years it happens on the 21st, on others the 22nd.
Equinox can be translated from Latin as meaning "equal night" and is this context applies to the Earth's two hemispheres.

The meteorologists use complete months for recording weather statistics purposes...and is not directly related to Earth's orbit around the Sun ...ie Astronomically devised dates..such as when the Sun is directly overhead at the Equator..or when the Sun has relatively attained it's southern/northern extremities (Tropics)...

We are quite use to talking about 4 seasons, but go to the Middle East and one has Got and Cool season...and then go to a country on the Equator..and it probably has one undulating season...possibly one portion somewhat wetter than another...

Am here to testify of a great spell caster who is very straight forward with his words of casting spells. When my Wife left me for another Man i was so confused,but one a day a friend of mine gave me the email address of this great spell caster called dr Aluya, I contacted this man and explained to him all that i was going through,he then told me to be calm and not worry anymore because my case is a very easy one. At first i never believe all that he was saying until when my husband returned home two days later begging me to forgive him all that he has done to me and to please accept him back into my life,I was so amazed,I never believe it was going to happen that fast.
This man is truly great indeed. Contact him today for a perfect solution to your love problem,aluya.48hoursspelltemple@gmail.com.  or whatsApp him  +2348055431163
