At the vernal equinox, which occurs around March 20th or 21st, the sun is directly above the equator. The northern hemisphere's dry belt, primarily associated with the subtropical high-pressure zones, typically spans latitudes around 20° to 30° north. This region experiences arid conditions due to descending air, which inhibits cloud formation and precipitation.
The vernal equinox is in March in the northern hemisphere and in September in the southern hemisphere.

The exact time of the vernal equinox varies from year to year. This year, the March equinox (the vernal equinox in the northern hemisphere, the autumnal equinox in the southern hemisphere) will occur on March 20, 2010 at 17:32 GMT.

The next equinox will be the vernal (spring) equinox, which occurs on or around March 20, 2024. This event marks the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and fall in the Southern Hemisphere. The next solstice, the summer solstice, will follow on June 21, 2024, marking the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.
the hemisphere that will experience there vernal equinox is the southern hemisphere because in the northern hemisphere will experience autumnal equinox and it is the opposite.

the vernal equinox is always on the 21 of march. that's the day I'm righting this. _______________________________ The equinoxes occur on March 21 and September 21, plus or minus one day because of the cycle of leap years. In the northern hemisphere, the vernal equinox is in March, and the autumnal equinox is in September; in the southern hemisphere, it's reversed. In 1978, the vernal equinox in the northern hemisphere was March 20, 1978 at 5: 10 PM GMT.
The autumn equinox is September, usually the 22nd or 23rd, in the Northern hemisphere. There are two equinox, the autumnal and vernal. They are referred to these name everywhere, in both the northern and southern hemispheres.
The equinox is either vernal (spring) or autumnal. It can't be both. But spring in the northern hemisphere is autumn in the southern.
