The first day of summer has arrived.
The first day of summer is here. June 20 marks the first day of the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere this year, according to the Farmer’s Almanac. The solstice will occur at 4:51 p.m. ET. This time of year often coincides with summer breaks, strawberries, and, of course, Stonehenge. The word "solstice" comes from two Latin words: sol and sistere according to the Almanac. The summer solstice takes place when the Tropic of Cancer is aligned directly with our sun.
Additionally, each meteorological season is always 90 to 92 days, depending on whether it's a leap year or not.There are many traditions around the world to welcome the summer solstice. In Sweden, it is customary to eat the first harvested strawberries of the season to celebrate the June solstice, according to the Almanac. One of the more famous celebrations during the summer solstice is the gathering at Stonehenge.
