Thanks for the heads up....Kind of weird since it is summer in Brazil currently

It is not summer in Brazil - It is Spring time.

Don't forget, the seasons in Brazil are opposite of the seasons in the U.S. (Northern Hemisphere) because Brazil is below the equator while the U.S. is above.

Autumnal Equinox – Fall Equinox

Equinoxes are opposite on either side of the equator, so the autumnal (fall) equinox in the Northern Hemisphere is the spring (vernal) equinox in the Southern Hemisphere and vice versa.

Equinoxes and solstices happen twice a year.

Autumnal Equinox, Southern Hemisphere

(Australia, New Zealand, South America, Southern Africa)

March Equinox 2016:

March 20, at 04:30 UTC

Autumnal (Fall) Equinox, Northern Hemisphere

(USA & Central America, Asia, Canada, Europe, Northern Africa)

September Equinox 2016:

September 22, at 14:22 UTC
