How to calculate the first day of Start of Spring  
 

Formula: [Y*D+C]-L Key: Y refers to the last two digits of a year, such as 10 in 2010, 08 in 2008, D = 0.2422, L = the number of leap years, 21st Century C = 3.87, 22th Century C = 4.15.

Example: The first day of Start of Spring in 2058 = [58 × 0.2422 +3.87] - [(58-1) / 4] = 17-14 = 3, so Start of Spring starts on February 3.
