First day of spring

The first day of spring is usually around March 20 or 21, depending on what day the vernal equinox occurs. The vernal equinox occurs when the sun peaks directly above the equator between the Earth's northern and southern hemisphere. The beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere is the beginning of autumn for the southern hemisphere.
