Happy #JuneSolstice! Have a great weekend! 🙂
Understanding seasons - a look at the hourly incoming sunlight during the two solstices (23.5°N/S). I've added a red marker for ease of viewing. Graphic can be downloaded at zacklabe.com/arctic-clima...

Solstices are imperfect ways of marking the season, but by all accounts… it’s OFFICIALLY summer. 😎

Had to look up why the difference!
"The difference is due to the Sun’s apparent size and atmospheric refraction, which slightly extends daylight on the equinox itself." weather.metoffice.gov.uk/learn-about/...

Understanding equinoxes and solstices
Equinoxes and solstices are key astronomical events that mark the changing of the seasons and are directly linked to Earth’s orbit around the Sun.

About 5,000 years ago, people near Stonehenge built a simple monument of two large wooden posts aligned with the summer and winter solstices. The discovery suggests prehistoric Britons tracked the sun and held ceremonies there centuries before Stonehenge’s famous stones were erected.
'This was a pioneering achievement': Stone Age people put up posts to observe the solstices near Stonehenge long before the stones of sacred site were placed
The discovery of two ancient holes at Stonehenge suggests people placed posts there to help observe the summer and winter solstices around 5,000 years ago.

The #solstice is a marker of seasonal change. Solstices—specifically the summer & winter solstices—mark the longest & shortest days of the year.
In Hawaiʻi & American Samoa, you're living in the longest day of the year—make the most of it in the national parks you 🫶! 🏞️🌺🌴
