Today is the first day of spring!
On the vernal equinox, also known as the spring equinox, the length of day and night is nearly equal in all parts of the world. Vernal translates to "new" and "fresh." Equinox is derived from the Latin aequus (equal) and nox (night).
You've heard the saying, "March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb." Today in Dayton, Ohio, the March lion was roaring with rain, wind, and cold. Eleven days until the lamb weather takes over...maybe.
Our lamb weather has been here this week. I hope it lasts.
