Encinitas summer in February makes news in San Francisco

San Francisco Chronicle:


Surfers and kayakers share the beach as they enjoy the unusually warm temperatures Tuesday, Feb. 16, 2016, in Encinitas, Calif. California is having another day of unseasonable warmth before a low-pressure system brings rain and snow.
If summer weather in October or November is "Indian summer," what's summer in February? Australian summer?

  3. Since the Indian in "Indian Summer" refers to Native Americans, perhaps a February heatwave should be called an "Aboriginal Summer".

    1. Native Americans are aboriginal people. Are you reserving the term for pre-colonial Australians? Because that's not the definition.
