🎙️ Episode #201 – The Summer Switch-Up!

Welcome back, everyone — Obsessed With the Weather is back for Episode #201, and we’ve got a big week ahead! After what feels like an endless stretch of gray skies and rain, we’re finally getting some good news: a significant warm-up is on the way, and dare we say... a Saturday with no rain in the forecast? We’ll break it all down for you.

Even more exciting? This Friday night marks a significant seasonal milestone: the official arrival of astronomical summer. That’s right — the summer solstice is upon us. And with it comes some of the most fascinating solar shifts of the year, including:

• The longest stretch of daylight we’ll see all year in Scituate 🌞
• The end of our earliest sunrises — so if you’ve been waking up to golden light at 5:06 AM, savor it while it lasts
• The beginning of our latest sunsets, with the sun setting after 8:20 PM for the next several weeks 🌅

We’ll also dive into:

• What is astronomical summer, and how does it differ from meteorological summer
• Exactly how many hours and minutes of daylight we’ll experience on the solstice
• Why this time of year feels so energizing — and what to expect from the changing rhythm of sunrises and sunsets moving forward

Of course, I’ll have your full hyperlocal forecast for June 16 through June 22, including which days are best for beach time, bike rides, or just catching a great Scituate sunset.

So grab your iced coffee, sunglasses, and curiosity — Episode #201 is packed with sunshine, science, and everything you need to stay one step ahead of the skies. Let’s get into it — next on Obsessed With the Weather.
