First Day of Spring

Spring has officially sprung!

Today March 20, 2019 marks the beginning of the March Equinox, an annual equinox that occurs at the exact moment that the sun passes over the celestial equator. This year, the changing of seasons will occur at exactly 05:58PM EDT bringing in the first day of Spring.

WHAT DOES THE EQUINOX MEAN?

The word equinox comes from the Latin words for “equal night”—aequus (equal) and nox (night). 

With the equinox, enjoy the increasing sunlight hours, with earlier dawns and later sunsets!
