    Longest day of the year

    Summer officially start on Friday, which mean tommorow thursday the 20th will be the longest day of year. And tommorow night the shortest night of year.

    On friday, the days will start getting shorter

    No matter how I do the math, the day is still 24 hours long.

    Except on the day that time is moved to daylight saving time which is only 23 hours long

    Slightly under a minute to be exact.

    When does Day end and Night begin?

    It happens to be the day with the most amount of sunlight and the night with the least amount of darkness.

    Whoops, that is not correct as I was only looking at evening hours. With added reduction in morning day light, we lose about 1.5 minute per day
