I think there's a different shade of meaning between autumn and autumnal. The former just relates to the time of year (the autumn term at school) whereas the latter has a further meaning of "typical of autumn" as in "After the warm week we've had, you can expect colder, wetter, more autumnal weather at the weekend".

What about "Ducking cold" to describe winter?
