belated

I would think that this decorative, artificially frosted stripey ball (and its companions) was outrageously belated - were it not that one house down the street still seems to have a Hallowe'en ghouly or two hanging around their front yard.  Maybe it's the climate?  Maybe because Southern Californian seasons, although quite distinct from one another, don't feel like the rest of the country, people feel that their decorations don't really have to correspond to conventional systems of dating? In any case, the white concrete wall here - if you don't look too closely - could seem like the semblance of a snowy background.
