Slice of Life: Spring Equinox

At lunch, we all were talking about the shift from winter to spring with the equinox but not one of us knew the exact time.

One colleague said it would happen at 4:55 pm and another said, no, it is 5:10 pm, while another thought 5:15 pm was the time of seasonal change.

To be honest, I had no idea, and later, I looked it up.

At 5:24 pm, eastern time, yesterday, we shifted from winter into spring.

Yeah!

Peace (and pondering),
Kevin

  1. And that time is based on distance from the sun? Does it vary depending longitude and latitude? Or is it simply time related?

    Thanks for looking it up!
