June 20

It has a climate with very cold winters and cool summers. In the winter, it is in complete darkness for 24 hours per day and in the summer it receives 24 hours of sunlight. South of the Arctic Circle to the Tropic of Cancer is the Northern Temperate Zone.

March temperatures in America’s major cities range from average lows that are below freezing to highs well above 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius). The coldest US cities in March include Buffalo, Milwaukee, Detroit, Minneapolis and Rochester.

Spring is the season of new beginnings. Fresh buds bloom, animals awaken and the earth seems to come to life again. Farmers and gardeners plant their seeds and temperatures slowly rise. The spring, or vernal, equinox occurs around March 20 in the Northern Hemisphere and around September 22 in the Southern Hemisphere.

Spring’s warmer weather and increased daylight hours make it the best season. Taking walks and seeing flowers in bloom are also part of what makes spring so great.

Summer

Spring, he says, lasts 92 days, 19 hours; summer 93 days, 15 hours; autumn, 89 days, 20 hours; winter, 89 days, zero hours. One last postscript: Some people may wonder why we in the Northern Hemisphere have our spring and summer when our planet is far away from the sun.

As difficult as it is to believe, astronomical winter is, indeed, the shortest of the four seasons. Or, more correctly, Northern Hemisphere winter, also known as Southern Hemisphere summer, is the shortest season.

They are key dates in the journey of the Earth around the Sun. The position of the Sun in relation to the Earth affects how long days and nights are. September 22 is the autumn equinox. June 21 is the summer solstice and the longest day of the year.
