According to the met office springtime officially starts today. Yet historically it has started nearer the end of March. It’s true that trees are starting to sprout leaves but it is still only a handful compared to the majority of them.
On the bbc website I found this:
Much of the country is in the grip of icy winter weather but according to the Meteorological Office spring is here.
It classes the first day of spring as 1 March, saying March, April and May are regarded as the spring months. But traditionally spring has started on the night of 20/21 March and a row has erupted over the official date.
