Default First day of Spring, Wembury, SW Devon

Spring sprung this year with
Max 10.3C, Min 0.8C.
This was confirmed as the start of the mating season as the blackbirds
in my garden are busy building nests.
Me? I am too old. :-(

Coldest 1st March I have recorded here was in 1986 (had snowed a few
days previously):
Max 1.2C, Min -2.6C

Warmest
in 1999:
Max 12.7C, Min 8.5C

Of interest, snow fell on 1st March 1993:
Max 6.4C, Min -2.0

Hi Len, you're never too old surely? :-)

Max. +8.7C here today which felt warmish in the sun.
Still not had 10C or more yet this year though!
A nice late winter's day.
