Im ready.. sunny and 50s and 60s please for 3 months straight. Oh and a few long duration rainy days would be good. And a breeze. And no humidity. Too much?
I've actually been thinking of spring today as well. We've not had much true winter weather to speak of so the only way you know it's winter is the length of the days, the sun angle and the gloom:sun ratio.
The three darkest, gloomiest, wettest, dampest months of the year on average will be over soon, and today's a beautiful sunny, mildish-feeling afternoon
There's a very noticeable difference in sunshine hours even between February and January. There's an even more noticeable difference between February and March.
In 5 weeks time the average high will be back above 10c again.
The later sunsets are becoming apparent, we're around the 5:00 PM mark now. In a matter of weeks the sun will be setting at 7:00 PM.

Put this together. Actual temp departures for each Spring since 2011. I hate using 3 month averages because it doesn't show a true result of what happens with ups and downs or extremes ect or even a majority of what was happening..
lol. 70°+ and humidity is what kills me. Under that is fine...for Spring and Summer. Or maybe my preference is changing a bit to like warmth in Spring
Last year ...... March we had record cold, record warm, snow on 21st.
April couple big storms, I started mowing lawn mid month. Warm with Blooms but also sharp cold fronts. Omega Block with awesome dry weather.
Then May was cool and wet. Horrible for garden.
