Cool March after a very hot winter

After a very hot winter, the meteorological spring in Switzerland started quite cold. The calendar doesn’t care about the seasons. Shortly before the meteorological start of spring, the depths of winter still prevail in some parts of Switzerland.

This weather – the so-called March winter – is an integral part of the Swiss climate in the plains on the northern side of the Alps. As a rule, the frequency of snowfall decreases towards the end of February and increases again from the first days of March. On March 2 and 5, 2006 there was an extremely severe March winter with record amounts of snow.

When does spring really start?

For meteorologists, spring begins on March 1 and ends on May 31. All months are more practical for data collection. There is also a phenological source. It depends on the plants. From this perspective, it’s early spring when the hazel bushes and snowdrops bloom. Astronomically, spring begins at exactly 16:33 on March 20 with the 2023 equinox in the northern hemisphere. Then the sun “wanders” at its zenith and further north exactly above the equator. This changes from year to year. (SDA)
