When do eastern newts wake up from hibernation?

So when do newts wake up from hibernation? Right now in Quebec the average temperature is 9°C (48.2°F) is that temperature good enough for them to wake up from hibernation?

We're getting around the same temps here in MA. and I spotted my first one swimming at a nearby fishing hole. They seem to be out and about pretty early and are usually one of the first local species I see in my spring travels. You should probably be able to find some within the next few weeks.
