Lohri is said to fall on the season's last truly cold day, after which the days will lengthen and warm as the season progresses into Spring. It is not to be confused with Holi, which takes place at the end of Spring and the beginning of Summer, or with Basant Panchmi, which takes place at the beginning of Spring.
