Fall will be coming in Japan...
I recently feel the end of summer because I can catch the cool breeze in the evening. That makes sense because the first day of fall was come on August 8th in the Japanese calendar. The summer solstice is set in the middle of June in general. Thus, Japanese people call the first day of fall the first week of August. However, that week is usually a sweltering season in our feeling, though.
For me, I like to feel a fall by the sound of insects and breezing. Especially, I can hear insects chirping a lot in my hometown area when fall comes. It is very beautiful music to me. I always sing "The Sound of Insects" that we have; this song is viral and historical in Japan.
How can you feel the next reason?

Where I live (rural Pennsylvania, USA) the nights in early fall are filled with the sound of crickets. ( https://youtu.be/pIA93auww8E?si=k1VbXfXDIE1olcRg ) They're pretty loud. In early spring, we have frogs called "spring peepers" because they go peep peep peep all night long. These are also loud.
