Facts About SpringWhen Does Spring Arrive in Minnesota?
Are you looking for some facts about spring in Minnesota and... just when does spring start anyway?We are often asked about the first day of spring, summer fall or winter in Minnesota.

Spring starts in late March in the Northern Hemisphere...and in Minnesota of course. The official first day of spring will be Saturday, March 20, 2010.
