The September equinox is celebrated in different ways across the world. The northern hemisphere experiences summer from June to September and winter from December to March. For example, the day length on Friday, September 24 will be 12 hours, 04 minutes and 52 seconds.Ībout 67.3 per cent of the Earth’s landmass is situated in the northern hemisphere, which includes the entire North America, Central America, and Europe, besides the northern part of South America, major parts of mainland Asia and about two-thirds of northern Africa. The equinox sunrise is likely at 06:09 am and the sunset at 06:16 pm, and the day length will be 12 hours, 06 minutes and 34 seconds.ĭays will begin to get shorter after Thursday. India is part of the northern hemisphere and will mark the autumn equinox this year on Thursday, September 23. We proceed towards winter after the autumn equinox as days begin to get shorter and the nights longer. When it's spring equinox in the northern hemisphere, the date marks the autumn equinox in the southern hemisphere, and vice versa. The seasons are reversed in the southern hemisphere. In the northern hemisphere, the spring equinox occurs in March (March 20 or 21) and the autumn equinox happens in September (September 22 or 23). Responsible for the change of seasons on Earth, an equinox occus twice a year - once in spring and once in autumn.
