The first day of spring this year (2008) is March 20. The equinox will be at 5:48 GMT.
In general, the four seasons correspond to the relative position of the Sun to the earth. Meteorological determination of Spring is calculated when the Sun passes through the equatorial plane. When going from Winter to Spring, the Sun is moving North, and as soon as the Sun crosses the equator, we call it Spring.

The first day of spring is one of my favorite days of the year. It makes me feel as though everything is right with the world for just a small moment. Hope you are having better weather.
