In real life, the transition between seasons can take a while. Winter can linger past March and well into April (hell, early June in some areas) depending on where you live. (Or September and October on the other half of the planet.) Of course, it depends on your point of view. If you're a technical-minded type, then Spring can never actually be late because it always starts on March 21st no matter what the weather is like outside. Of course, when people say that it's "late", what they really mean is that there's still snow outside or that it's cold, the trees and flowers aren't blooming, etc.
Not so in TV Land. For fictional denizens, winter lasts a couple of days at most, and spring arrives March 21st on the dot. If not, then something is wrong. Maybe something happened to the creatures responsible for changing the seasons, or perhaps the MacGuffin needed to dismiss winter has gone missing.
Often there are terrible consequences for Spring being late. And yet, no one seems to care if Spring lasts into Summer or if Autumn goes missing. Perhaps it's because Evil Is Deathly Cold.
Truth in Television throughout history, specifically for places where the survival of a population depended on a good harvest and snow taking too long to go away could spell death.
Compare Endless Winter.

In the NES version, of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Arcade Game, Stage 4 is a snowy park. Upon defeating the boss, Tora, the turtles destroy a Weather-Control Machine and the setting immediately turns to spring, with the turtles announcing that "Spring is here."

With a twist in "Angelina's Spring Fling" on Angelina Ballerina: The Next Steps. The characters know perfectly well that there's nothing they can do to stop it from being cold and snowy outside. So, instead, they decide to try to create a bit of spring inside by doing things such as pretending to play baseball, painting Easter eggs and playing a CD of Vivaldi's "Spring."

In First Lord's Fury of the Codex Alera series, Tavi forces Spring to come late. He does this by drawing in cold air from the north to maintain winter by the Shield Wall. This is used to transport ships over land across the realm in days, where it would normally take weeks to travel with conventional methods.

Dungeons & Dragons:
Residents of Vorostokov, one of Ravenloft's harsher inhabited domains, have been waiting for a proper Spring for a couple of decades now. At best, the rate of snowfall decreases temporarily, and a few above-freezing days each summer keep the accumulation from turning villages into glaciers, but actual thaws are unknown.

The Legend of Zelda
In Majora's Mask, Snowhead Mountain is plunged into eternal winter by an evil spirit. When Link breaks the curse, the land instantly transforms into a warm sunny place: snow melts, plants bloom, and ice-themed enemies are replaced with their springtime counterparts.
Oracle of Seasons, as the name implies, involves the seasons being out of whack due to their oracle being kidnapped. It's possible to go from one screen to another with the season changing, though each area has a stump from which you can swing the Rod of Seasons with which to change the season and progress (spring brings flowers that catapult you up ridges, summer lowers water levels, fall causes leaves to block holes, and winter freezes over lakes).

In The Wheel of Time, Winter lasts till the equivalent of early May, due to the Dark One interfering with the seasons. This is fixed in the first book after the protagonists manage to weaken him by killing some of his lieutenants. Then summer lasts clear to January. Interestingly, people do care about this, as the entire world starts to turn into a tinderbox from the heat. To fix this new problem, the protagonists must find a powerful artifact that can control the weather, and in order to fix the balance of nature, they have to dump three months worth of winter onto the world over about two weeks.

In the '90s Rupert cartoon, the imps (see Comic Strips above) make an appearance there as well, only brought up to Rupert's size and Gender Flipped. The imps are supposed to use a staff to turn winter into spring, but a trainee Rupert meets refuses, saying she would rather use a mechanical contraption named a "spring machine". Raggerty meanwhile decides to sabotage all of these attempts as spring makes him itch. He gets thwarted. Eventually.

Silly Symphonies: At the end of "Winter", the groundhog character, who is said to predict the changing of the seasons, is hoping that the sky will turn cloudy that day, signaling the end of winter. Unfortunately for him the clouds clear up, revealing a sunny sky, and as a result the groundhog turns around and sees his shadow, frightening him back into his burrow, implying that winter will continue. Interestingly enough, although this short is preceded by two other shorts titled Summer and Autumn, respectively, there is no follow-up short called Spring at all!.

God of War (PS4) ends with the arrival of Fimbulwinter, a supernaturally long winter that is the prelude to Ragnarok. Fimbulwinter was predicted, but not for at least a century; Kratos caused it early by killing Baldur. Sure enough, Kratos describes the Time Skip between it and God of War Ragnarök as three winters with no spring in between.

Likewise in Rankin Bass' Jack Frost, Jack manages to trap the villain, Kublai Kraus, in his castle with a blizzard, and extends winter as long as possible so that he can't escape and attack the village where his beloved lives. He manages to extend it past Groundhog's Day by turning into a shadow to scare Punxsutawney Phil, but eventually his boss, Father Winter, has enough and ordains that winter will end at noon on May Day. Jack manages to defeat the villain before it happens.

Similar to the example in literature, the 2003 DVD Spring for Strawberry Shortcake starts when there's still snow on the ground on the first day of Spring, so Strawberry and her friends go out to find it. They end up finding the young girl Spring who would rather keep playing in Winter's snow than bring Spring to the world, but they convince her to do her job.
