When is summer? The date changes from year to year. Here's when summertime starts in 2025
Is it summer yet? Not quite, but it's getting closer. The first official day of summertime barbeque grills, diving into a nearby swimming pool and complaining about Indiana's anticipated hot weather is nearly upon us. Here's what you need to know about when summer starts and what it means for Indiana. June 20 marks the first official day of summer in 2025. That's on a Friday this year. It's also the date of the summer solstice. The first day of summer changes annually, arriving on June 20, 21 or 22. That's because the earth's astronomical year is actually 365.25 days long, writes Story continues after photo gallery. June 20 is going to be a long day — the longest, actually. Indiana will get roughly 15 hours of sunshine on June 20, 2025. The sun will rise at about 6:16 a.m. in Indianapolis and set around 9:16 p.m., according to From here on out, the days will only get shorter until the winter solstice in December. The summer solstice, according to the National Weather Service, is when the earth's tilt toward the sun reaches its maximum noontime elevation. For everywhere north of the Tropic of Cancer, the sun is at its highest point in the sky, resulting in the longest day of the year. Solstice is a combination of the Latin words sol, meaning "sun," and sistere, meaning "to stop," according to the Old Farmer's Almanac. It's derived from the Latin word solstitium. Or to put it in another way: solstice means "sun stands still." Story continues after IndyStar's 2024 summer recap photo gallery. In the northern hemisphere, summer begins near the end of June and lasts through July, August and most of September. On Sept. 22, the autumnal equinox marks the start of fall. There are two solstices and two equinoxes every year, signaling the start of each new season. The summer solstice happens when the sun reaches its highest point in the sky and marks the longest day of the year. The winter solstice is when the sun hits its lowest point, resulting in the shortest day of the year. Equinox, if you were wondering, means "equal night" in Latin, when nighttime and daytime are of equal lengths everywhere on the planet. Just like the solstice, there are two equinoxes — the vernal (first day of spring) and the autumnal (first day of fall).

How Minnesotans are reacting to the air quality alert affecting the state
All of Minnesota is under an air quality alert through Monday evening, which is when the heaviest haze could set in. Gary Rother noticed the poor air quality while he was setting up the beach volleyball courts Sunday at Theodore Wirth Park in Minneapolis. "At times it gets really smoky, and at times it's not as bad," he said. Some of the players told WCCO they noticed some haze in the air, even if it wasn't enough to make anyone stop playing. Rother felt it the worst while mowing his lawn this weekend. "You feel like something is in your throat," he said. "It's a little like you're ready to hack something out." The National Weather Service says the air quality alert that goes through Monday is a result of smoke from wildfires in Canada. "It can be hazardous to your health, especially people who are especially sensitive to things like that: people with asthma, elderly, children," said Melissa Dye, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service. While driving, recirculating the air in the car can help. If spending time outside, Dye says a well-fitting N95 mask is recommended, along with taking breaks inside. Dye says she has no reason to think this summer won't be like recent summers with frequent haze and air quality alerts.
