Meteorological spring begins today

Today marks the start of meteorological spring, according to weather experts. The season is characterized by warmer temperatures and the beginning of blooming flowers in many regions.

Meteorologists define spring as March 1 through May 31, based on the calendar months. This is different from astronomical spring, which depends on the position of Earth’s orbit.

Residents are encouraged to enjoy the changing weather and prepare for the upcoming season’s activities. Local weather forecasts indicate a trend toward milder temperatures in the coming weeks.
