For me, spring starts when I don't have to wear a winter coat.

For me it starts with the first round of thunderstorms. Ironically, that was yesterday

When I have to start mowing the yard, which was last weekend. The grass hasn't really started growing yet, but the weeds are doing wonderfully.

Well, the azaleas are in full bloom and everything outside is covered in a layer of yellow pollen, so I guess last week..

Mud, crocuses, robins, green tips of grass poking thru the brown thatch. Sunrise on the way to work and sunset waiting til dinnertime. The dog's nose working overtime during walks, sniffing the extra moisture and scents in the air. Squirrels digging in the softened lawn in search of walnuts they buried last fall. Marshmallow Peeps in the stores.

Spring in Michigan starts somewhere around June. It lasts about 4 days.

I don't think we've had spring for a few years now.

For me Spring starts with the Vernal Equinox no matter what the weather channel says. Night and day are equals. Today was Spring and it snowed.

For me March 20. I've been told my whole life the first day of spring is on the 20th, my birthday. Spring Starts Sunday, But Why Has the Date Changed?: www.space.com/spacewatch/050318_equinox.html

The Equinox very often takes place on March 20th. The first FULL day of Spring is typically March 21st. It varies because our calendar is not exact.

For me its usually that day you clump out of your front door with your winter coat on, hat, and heavy duty boots, ready to face yet another cold lousy day. Then suddenly you realize that the air has a balmy soft feel to it,the birds are singing and you can throw off that coat, hat and kick off those boots. Then to top it all off, you start humming a song and you feel like your'e floating on air as a heavenly choir of voices swells.......well it seems like that happens. On that glorious day--its spring.

Wow, that is nice Kaykay! My nice thing is I am trying to find a home for a stray kitty. He was in our front bushes several days ago, starving and cold. I brought him to the vet and got him his shots. But now finding him a home is hard! He is camping out in our laundry room for the time being...
