Writing a program that takes a date as input and outputs the date's season

Ex: If the input is:
April
11
the output is: Spring

In addition, check if the string and int are valid (an actual month and day). Ex: If the input is:
Blue
65
the output is: Invalid

The dates for each season are:
Spring: March 20 - June 20
Summer: June 21 - September 21
Autumn: September 22 - December 20
Winter: December 21 - March 19

I linked my code and it doesn't work for these 2 inputs (and I can't figure out why)
1.for November 7, my output is "Summer" when it should be "Autumn"
2.for September 31, my output is "Summer" when it should be "Invalid"

input_month = input()
input_day = int(input())
months= ('January', 'February','March', 'April' , 'May' , 'June' , 'July' , 'August' , 'September' , "October" , "November" , "December")

if not(input_month in months):
    print("Invalid")

elif input_month == 'March':
    if not(1<=input_day<=31):
        print ("Invalid")
    elif input_day<=19:
        print("Winter")
    else:
        print ("Spring")
elif input_month == 'April' :
    if not(1<=input_day<=30):
        print("Invalid")
    else:
        print("Spring")
elif input_month == 'May':
    if not(1<=input_day<=31):
        print("Invalid")
    else:
        print("Spring")
elif input_month == 'June':
    if not(1<=input_day<=30):
        print("Invalid")
    elif input_day<=20:
        print ("Spring")
    else:
        print("Summer")
elif input_month == 'July' or 'August':
    if not(1<=input_day<=31):
        print("Invalid")
    else: 
        print("Summer")
elif input_month == 'September':
    if not(1<=input_day<=30):
        print("Invalid")
    elif input_day<=21:
        print ("Summer")
    else:
        print ("Autumn")
elif input_month == "October":
    if not(1<=input_day<=31):
        print("Invalid")
    else:
        print("Autumn")
elif input_month == "November":
    if not(1<=input_day<=30):
        print("Invalid")
    else:
        print ("Autumn")
elif input_month == "December":
    if not(1<=input_day<=31):
        print("Invalid")
    elif input_day <=20:
        print ("Autumn")
    else:
        print ("Winter")
elif input_month == 'January':
    if not(1<=input_day<=31):
        print("Invalid")
    else:
        print("Winter")
elif input_month == "February":
    if not(1<=input_day<=29):
        print("Invalid")
    else:
        print ("Winter")

You have a wrong line of code:

elif input_month == 'July' or 'August':

It should be:

elif input_month == 'July' or input_month == 'August':

or

elif input_month in ('July', 'August')

As @Steven Rumbalski mentioned below.

The code input_month == 'July' or 'August' always evaluates to True.

As it is parsed as (input_month == 'July') or ('August').

Empty strings are considered False, and all other strings are considered True, so 'August' always evaluates to True.
