It depends on the season. The current average lengths are:
Winter: 88.994 days
Spring: 92.758 days
Summer: 93.651 days
Autumn: 89.842 days
(These values change slowly over time, as the position of the perihelion of Earth's orbit changes.)
The differing lengths of the season enabled ancient Greek astronomers to accurately measure the eccentricity of Earth's orbit as far back as the 2nd century BC.

There are 4 seasons, there are 365 days.
365 / 4 = 91.25
so there are 91 or 92 per season.
Astronomically, some Western countries consider spring to begin with the spring equinox (around March 20 in the Northern Hemisphere, and September 23 in the Southern Hemisphere), and ends with the summer solstice (around June 21 in the Northern Hemisphere and December 21 in the Southern Hemisphere). Such conventions are by no means universal, however. In Chinese astronomy, for example, the vernal equinox instead marks the middle of spring, which begins around the time of Lichun (around February 4). In the Irish Calendar it is counted as the whole months of February, March and April. In meteorology, it is (also by convention) instead counted as the whole months of March, April, and May in the Northern Hemisphere and September, October, and November in the Southern Hemisphere.

Since there are 4 seasons and 365 days in a year, the answer is about 91.

It relies upon on whether you're relating the organic or calender first day of each season. In former situations ,our antecedents could have regarded February 5th by way of fact the initiating of spring and have bonfires to rejoice what's the halfway factor between the wintry climate Solstice and Spring Equinox. could 5th is halfway between Spring Equinox and summer season Solstice and "starts" summer season. This coincides with the appearance of the swifts, who've overwintered in Africa. August fifteenth is in the same style mid-factor between summer season Solstice and Autumn Equinox "starts" autumn and the swifts have left interior the few days previous. November 5th is halfway between Autumn Equinox and wintry climate Solstice and is the initiating of wintry climate and celebrated with bonfires, that are clever to burn a summer season`s rubbish alongside with straw bedding which would be infested with mattress bugs.

it depends where you live. I live in VA and i have 3 seasons, summer, spring, and fall. That would make 122 days per season for me. And if you live in florida, you have 365 days per season.

well, according to the Chinese calculation, there are approximately three months to each season. considering February has only 28 days though.
