Where have all the flowers gone?

The Vernal Equinox (aka the Spring Solstice) was yesterday (at 18:26 UTC), so it's now officially the first day of Spring. However, with temperatures four degrees colder than the same time last year, flowers aren't due to come out for at least another 4 weeks now. The problem is that the last ten or so summers and winters have been so mild that we've gotten used to it being as warm as it was.

It's still way too cold here though in Birmingham, first day of Spring or not!
