Spring's finished, that's clear (4,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

leap over

'clear' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'spring's finished' is the wordplay.
'spring' becomes 'leap' ('leap' can be a synonym of 'spring'**).
'finished' becomes 'over' ('over' can be similar in meaning to 'finished').
'leap'+'over'='LEAP OVER'

'that's' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
