Your calculation is based on the month, but the value you are using is month + day. 427 is greater than 11, so that is why you are getting Winter. 

Also, the order of your if statements matter. Survey will stop at the very first statement that is true. If todays_monthday is equal to 6, it will return Spring because 6 is greater than 2 so it stops checking the rest of the calculation. It doesn't even know there is an option to check and see if it is greater than 5. 

if(${todays_monthday}>11,'Winter',if(${todays_monthday}>2,'Spring',if(${todays_monthday}>5,'Summer',if(${todays_monthday}>6,'Spring','Winter'))))

 

With those things in mind, the following should work for what you want. 

 

if(${todays_monthday}>1111,'Winter',if(${todays_monthday}>815,'Autumn',if(${todays_monthday}>521,'Summer',if(${todays_monthday}>220,'Spring','Winter'))))
