Vernal (March) Equinox | This event occurs on the 19th, Mountain Daylight Time. Calendars will show this event on the 20th due to time zone differences. The vernal equinox occurs when the Sun crosses the celestial equator from the southern half of the sky to the northern half of the sky. Consequently, daytime and nighttime are both about 12 hours long. The Sun rises due east and sets due west on the equinox date. In the southern hemisphere seasons are reversed. So, the March equinox marks the beginning of autumn. |
