It is in the Southern Hemisphere
The location of the sun on the first day of spring is directly above the equator, a position known as the vernal equinox. This event marks the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and autumn in the Southern Hemisphere.
It is called the Equinox. It is when both axis of the world are facing away from the sun. The sun's plane then is directly over the Equator. It happens twice a year, there is the September Equinox and the March Equinox.
No. The Sun is always above the horizon somewhere in the Southern hemisphere just as it always is above the horizon somewhere in the Northern hemisphere. About half of each hemisphere is illuminated at every instant (well more of the Southern hemisphere is illuminated from the end of September to the end of March and more of the Northern hemisphere during the other half year).
The official date of the First day of Spring in the Southern Hemisphere is September 22nd or 23rd.
It depends. If you are in the Northern Hemisphere it is March. If you are in the Southern Hemisphere it is September.
The first official day of Spring in the entire northern hemisphere is March 22nd. Because of the tilt in the Earth's axis, the first day of spring in the southern hemisphere is September 22nd.
The first day of spring in the Southern Hemisphere is September 21. Antarctica is located in the Southern Hemisphere.
In the northern hemisphere, the first half or so, is summer. On the 22nd it becomes fall. In the southern hemisphere, the first half or so, is winter. On the 22nd it becomes autumn.
Not just Australia, the whole of the Southern Hemisphere. In the Southern Hemisphere, the Winter Solstice is on the 21st of June, the Summer Solstice is on the 21st of December. The Spring Equinox is on the 21st of September, and the Autumn Equinox is on the 21st of March. Therefore, Spring commences on the 1st of September in the whole of the Southern Hemisphere. Unfortunately, because the earth is viewed inaccurately from a Northern Hemisphere perspective, the Southern Spring Equinox is actually referred to as the "Autumnal Equinox" so that it does not confuse the northerners.
In the southern hemisphere, the first day of spring is marked by the spring equinox, which typically occurs around September 22 or 23. In 2013, the first day of spring fell on September 23. This date signifies the moment when day and night are approximately equal in length as the sun crosses the celestial equator.
