Any temperate location in either hemisphere is warmer in spring than in winter.

Going from the winter (December) solstice to the vernal (March) equinox, the Earth's tilt is bringing longer days and more efficient insolation to the Northern Hemisphere. It is not until March that the North Pole gets sunlight again after 6 months of no daytime at all.

March 21 is close to the vernal equinox (when the Sun is above the horizon as much as it is under the horizon).

Usually it is spring, summer, autumn, winter. However, that is the case in the northern hemisphere. In the southern hemisphere, it would be autumn. Another way of looking at it is that it is winter when the year starts in the northern hemisphere and spring is the first season entirely in the year in the northern hemisphere. In the southern hemisphere, it is summer when the year starts and autumn is the first season entirely in the year.
