Summer Solstice Accompanied by Annular Solar Eclipse
Today after 1982 a proper ‘Ring of Fire’ is expected as it is also the #LongestDayOfTheYear with a #SolarEclipse2020. But don’t watch it directly. If you don’t have instruments let the TV channels show it to you. pic.twitter.com/7ZJUumibT0

Not much sunset tonight due to clouds but the solstice is special. Always bittersweet cause the days start getting shorter again after today. #longestdayoftheyear #SummerSolstice2020 Nite @alexjzucker pic.twitter.com/YRU7y39cBf

Now since it is summer season, it is time for you to head to the local pool or beaches, following social distancing guidelines or decorate your backward for BBQ specials at the warm nights. Above all, do not forget to keep yourself hydrated during the season. Happy Summer, everyone!
