Since valve is in America:

"Astronomically, it begins in the northern temperate zone at the autumnal equinox, about September 23, and ends at the winter solstice, about December 23; but in popular language, autumn, in America, comprises September, October, and November."

Fall (it's Autumn yanks!) starts september 22nd and ends december 21st

But it's HL Radio, and they probably just mean September, especially if it goes gold in August. Which we already knew for like a month....

HL Radio, your source for information if you want sensational news that is actually not news at all.

The news came directly from Doug Lombardi and as we already know, Valve use the official dates and timings for the seasons so Fall is indeed Sept 22nd to Dec 23rd or whatever.
