Tuesday is First Day of Spring Equinox

Tomorrow marks the first day of Spring.

March 20 is the Vernal Equinox, one of two days a year when the length of the day and night are almost equal. 

The spring equinox, when the sun is positioned directly above the tilted earth, will actually occur at 11:14 p.m. PST on March 19.

Some believe that the spring equinox is also a time of magical balance, and many claim they can make an egg stand on that day. Turns out it's just an urban myth, an egg can balance any time of year!
