It's not the f-ing first day of spring until the 21st. Spring starts at the equinox.

That's the Welly area for ya. I just left the office for a morning tea meeting thinking I didn't need my hoody coat but once I tried to head back, talk about being wet

"September brings the sweet spring showers
On and on for hours and hours..."

With apologies to Flanders and Swan.

Yay, the weather is changing. and it definately has the feel of spring. The first day was awesome, sunny and warm with a hint of hopefully what is to come.
The weather is on the increase, felt the warmth in the sun today. Still some lingering wet, but hopefully that will move off and into some dry warm riding days.

Roll on summer.....

I always bank on the 1st of September being the first day of Spring. I don't care about equinox, I just like the temp and weather changes.
All the blossoms are out, and everything kicks into growth mode..... But best of all for me, riding weather gets better.
I ride 120km minimum everyday to work, and I feel the difference even in the damp. I can feel the heat of the sun which makes a nice change of the chill. Maybe being in the north is a pluss for that, Welly is cold nearly all year round lol.......

Already planning the runs, cannon ball run, coro gp, North run Hokianga, and the South Island.

Woohooo.
