The Sun's back in our Court: Sept 23

Murray from Paraparaumu

The vernal (spring) equinox (equal night) occurred at 06.19 this morning when the sun crossed the equator into our hemisphere. It's the time when day and night are of approximately equal length. It also means sunrise was due east and sunset will be due west.

Kāpiti's spring, which as usual, began in August has been particularly dry, receiving less than half its usual September rain to-date, so the 40mm of gentle showers over the the last two days are also to be celebrated.
