Our weather has been back and forth recently, occasional bits of snow and/or cold mixed with sun and above freezing to very pleasant days like today. As it usually is for us in spring, more so than fall, it seems. Tomorrow is colder with rain expected, but the forecast is very encouraging, though still with some of that back and forth.
I know the crocus are probably the first really encouraging sign of spring for me, as snowdrops are for others. Aside from the better temperatures, there is spring training baseball, March Madness basketball, maybe seeing buds on the trees or the first robin, or in my case, Mom coming back home. What other occurrences help you change your mindset from winter to spring?

We are a week ahead of you there - first crocuses last week. And exactly the same weather due in the next few days!

Bird song and lots of it over the past two days, wonderful to hear it. We have one daffodil! I’m not sure what has happened to the rest or if this one is early.
Dry, sunny and milder day today, lovely.
Today turned out more misty than rainy, and doubly overcast all day. The first robin is almost cliche around here, but spring birdsong will be nice when we can open the windows or sit outside comfortably. No sign of daffodils here yet. Still can't quite see any buds on the trees, even. What feels different to me may just be that the end is in sight.
