The Chinese calendar states that today is the first day of spring, 春分. The American calendar put it as yesterday. For Australian, it is of course the reverse. It should be the beginning of autumn now.

Like, how would one know? Is there a computer program somewhere which works all these dates out? I know in Chinese calendar, they have the 24 seasons, 节令. I wonder if they correspond to the English system too.

In Singapore, no spring lah. Everyday is HOT.
