The First Day of Summer in Naples Florida
Today is the first day of summer and it dawned hot and humid in Naples Florida. After a very cold winter, we are now experiencing a very warm summer.
This day marks the beginning of the summer solstice and is the longest day of the year. It was very important in ancient times as it was a reminder that they had achieved a turning point in the growing season. The solstice is a result of the Earth’s north-south axis being tilted and this allows different amounts of sunshine to reach different areas of the planet.
It is certainly time for us here in Naples to enjoy our wonderful beaches with the summer stretching ahead of us. The Gulf of Mexico at Naples is currently 87 degrees which makes for wonderful relaxing beach days. The hot afternoons are the perfect time to head to the beach for some recreation.
We hope that you enjoy this first day of summer wherever you are in this wonderful country! You can be sure that we are enjoying the hot weather and beach days here in sunny Naples Florida!
