It’s the first of September. The sun is a little lower in the sky, and the heat of the day seems like a last bit of warmth before things get cold & gloomy. Sure, I could wait a few days until the temperature really drops to declare summer over, but I think it’s fair to officially call this the first day of Fall.

Yeah, I agree. The first day of fall is always the first day of Spetember for me too.
