When does the equinox start?

The vernal equinox (in the north) will be March 20 2013 at 11:02 UT, which is for all practical purposes the same as 11:02AM, Greenwich Mean Time. This is the autumnal equinox in the southern hemisphere.Each year the actual time of the equinox changes by several hours, a table showing all forthcoming times and dates can be found on the related link.


What time do you stand an egg on its end on the first day of spring?

at the exact time of the equinox, it changes each year, this year it is 7:21e.s.t. use a raw egg, small side down, keep trying until it stays standing. I have done it a few times, it can stand for 10-15 min. when done at the right time. I have pictures to prove it!!
