What Are You Doing on the Longest Day of the Year?

Do you have any special plans for the summer solstice?

This year the summer solstice is on June 20. The date varies depending on when the sun reaches its farthest point north of the equator. The word solstice comes from the Latin words sol (sun) and stitium (to stop), because the sun appears to stop at this time of year, according the Old Farmer's Almanac.

Just how many hours of light do we get today in the South Tampa area? According to Time and Date, there will be about 13 hours, 54 minutes and 56 seconds of daylight between sunrise (6:34 a.m.) and sunset (8:29 p.m.)
