Happy Lughnasad or Imbolc
...depending on where you live on the planet.
These are the ancient names for two of the the cross-quarter days; the days that fall halfway between the solstice and equinox. You in the northern hemisphere are experiencing Imbolc, in the Southern, it's Lughnasad.
If you're really switched on to the weather, you will notice that there is the very slightest chill or warmth in the air heralding the impending change of seasons as the earth moves around the sun.
