Weather Patterns for First Day of Spring Today

St. Francois County, Mo. (KFMO) - Today is officially the first day of spring but that doesn't always mean spring like weather. The Old Farmer's Almanac's Dan Holiday says when you talk about the weather, the old saying goes-- the first day of spring is one thing, and the first spring day is another.

In contrast, our local forecast shows mostly clear, windy weather through Saturday with showers and possibly a thunderstorm Saturday night. You can catch Dan Holiday with the Old Farmer's Almanac weekdays on AM 1240, KFMO.
