. . the summer solstice, June 21.
At any place between the equator and 23.5 degrees south latitude, there are twolongest days of the year. One is a day between September 21 and December 21,depending on the latitude, and the other one is the same number of days afterDecember 21 that the first one is before it. The days are of equal length.At any place between 23.5 and 66.5 degrees south latitude, the longest day is December 21.At any place farther than 66.5 degrees south latitude, the longest day is somewherebetween 24 hours and six months long, depending on the latitude, so it hits more thanone date. December 21 is the middle of it.
Day and night varies throughout the year depending on the angle of the sun and the axis of the earth. The further you are from the equator the greater the differences. If you live on the equator the difference is virtually nil.
On the summer solstice, around June 21st, 50N latitude will receive the largest amount of daylight in the Northern Hemisphere. This is the day when the North Pole is tilted closest to the Sun, resulting in the longest day of the year for locations at this latitude.
