Spring is most definitely in the air in Preston as the nights get lighter, and the temperatures rise slightly.
The past week has seen a period of settled weather across the city and surrounding area.
This leads to a surge of beautiful sunrise and sunset pictures as Prestonians feel that little bit better about clambering out of bed.
We also see some pictures that always tell us that Spring, and even summer, are just that bit closer for us.

Everyone suddenly reappears down the park…
Down at the Marina Pic: Tony Worrall
Just look at that skyline, and that flat beautiful water…

Clear and crisp skies have been a feature of Preston’s spring
A sea of colour in Ashton Park Pic: Tony Worrall
It’s not all grey anymore, we have a carpet of colour in many of the parks
Tony Worrall must take this picture every year, we don’t mind though!
