The tutor shares reflections about, from his point of view, the first day of spring, 2016, in Campbell River.<\/h1>\n

As many of my readers realize, I’m a Maritimer. The mild weather on Canada’s west coast continues to impress me, even after nearly 30 years living here.<\/p>\n

As I mentioned in last year’s post<\/a> about the first day of spring here, March 21 doesn’t aptly target it. The true change in warmth and sunshine is usually apparent much earlier. My definition for the first day of spring: It’s the first sunny day (in the new year) with high temp 10\u00b0C or above. By that definition, the first day of spring, 2016, in Campbell River, is today, January 28. Environment Canada<\/a> reports the temp at 11\u00b0C, with sunny conditions. I’ve been outside; it’s true.<\/p>\n

I’ve noticed a couple of signs of spring. Last week, downtown, daffodil shoots were a few inches up from the soil. This morning, as I opened the gate, a fly buzzed about in the sun. However, I wouldn’t have guessed that today would mark the change. Amid exams and other activities, this occasion is a very pleasant surprise.<\/p>\n

I’ll be further discussing the evolving spring season in future posts:)<\/p>\n
