Prince George, B.C. –  It is now, officially summer.

The summer solstice in the northern hemisphere officially occurred at 3:51 this morning Pacific Daylight Time.

The summer solstice day has the longest period of daylight except in the Arctic where daylight will be 24 hours for anywhere from a few days to several months.

In Prince George, with this morning's sunrise at 4:39, and setting  at 9:47 this evening, the City will have about 17 hours and 7 minutes of daylight today.

That will start to dwindle tomorrow, when 6 seconds will be shaved off that daylight total.

Yeah! And it is looking to be another glorious sunny day in P.G. (:

Science aside, summer in Prince George is the last two weeks of July.
