Lighter evenings - NOT amateur radio

 Although here the mornings continue to get darker for a few more weeks, from tonight it starts to get lighter at night. By the end of the month it is about 9 minutes lighter. A corner has been turned.

Evenings soon getting lighter - NOT amateur radio

Although the days still get shorter until early January, the evenings start to get very slowly lighter again from next weekend here. I think this depends on many factors. It is one hour lighter by the end of January.

Lighter evenings - NOT amateur radio

At long last, it is getting just a little lighter here in the evenings. For a week or so the mornings still get darker, but already the evenings are several minutes better. By the end of January the difference in the evening is almost an hour. Of course this means the year has turned again.

Warmth - NOT amateur radio

At last we seem to be in high summer with high temperatures and high humidity. Although we have passed the longest day, evenings are still light for weeks to come.  The real change tends to come in September. It must be my age but it seems only 5 minutes since last Christmas! We'll blink and it will be Christmas 2015 and the nights will start to draw out again!

UPDATE June 27th 1538z: The forecast for next week is temperatures in the 30-34 deg C range.  This would be hot.
