Spring is one of the four temperate seasons. Spring falls between winter and summer.

Dates

There are different views on when the season starts and finishes.

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary states that spring comprises "in the northern hemisphere usually the months of March, April, May, or as reckoned astronomically extending from the vernal equinox (March 20) to the June solstice (June 20).". The Southern Hemisphere experiences spring during the months of August, September, October.

The actual dates vary depending on the year from March 21 to June 20 or 21 for Northern hemisphere and from September 20 or 21 to December 20 or 21 for the Southern hemisphere.
