Mar 20th. – First Day of Spring

In the Northern Hemisphere, spring begins with the equinox on the 20th March at 6:29 a.m. (EDT).
• Astronomically speaking, the equinox occurs when the Sun crosses the celestial equator on its way north along the ecliptic. This March equinox is also known as the vernal, or spring, equinox, and marks the start of the spring season.
