Devs always said that big patches are supposed to be every 3 months, they are unfortunately, always late.

When they say 3 months they don't mean 90 days on the dot. If Patch A lands at the start of July and Patch B drops near the end of October they're still within their three month window. As you can see it averages around 100 days which is a little over a week off. Not bad considering they deviated from their original intent and started doing sub-Patches every month which actually adds to development time.

But I live in the southern hemisphere... also what is snow? (I kid, but really. It never snows here)

Read ALL of Yoshi's post. They're doubling the SIZE of each Ward based on what he said, and the infrastructure changes they're planning would allow them to expand the number of Wards as much as they want to. The issue is that he wasn't sure if they'd be able to make the 2.4 cutoff on the software side due to large amounts of debugging being required. I'd imagine they're aiming for a dynamic system so new Ward instances add themselves. It's the only thing I can think of that would require a shitton of new code to debug. And yes they never stick to 90 days, but they always try to land it in the correct month so it should be by the end of this month.

My guess is right before Halloween or two weeks after Halloween.

Let's cross our fingers that the Monday Live Letter on 27th is the premonition for a next day patch... Otherwise it'll be the first week(Tuesday) of November.

My guess would be the 21st or 28th, after either of the upcoming Fan Fests (NA and EU respectively).
