Hi everyone,
June 22nd is the day of the summer solstice (夏至), which has the longest amount of daylight (最長の日照時間) of the year. In some countries, this day represents the middle of summer; in others, however, it marks the start of the hottest season. Either way (どちらにしても), starting tomorrow the days will get shorter . . . until the winter solstice (冬至) arrives on December 22nd.
Shine on,
Alan
P.S. In the Northern Hemisphere (北半球), the 2019 summer solstice occurred at 12:54 a.m., Japan Standard Time (日本標準時).
