Default Shifted seasons

Writing this in what seems to be mid November here in South Wales.
Has anyone noticed that we have had a 2 month shift in our seasons,
the last couple of years
Summer was April/May/June, Autumn was July / August and now we seem
to be at the end of Autumn heading towards Winter.
This could account for us getting snow in November when it should be
in Jan.

I am seeing something even stranger at the moment.

My holly has both red berries and a second flush of flowers on now and
the formerly indoor forced hyacinths put outside are in flower again
believing they have had a winter already!
