Summer is the hottest of the four temperate seasons, falling between spring and autumn. At the summer solstice, the days are longest and the nights are shortest, with day-length decreasing as the season progresses after the solstice.

When it is summer in the Northern Hemisphere, it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere, and vice versa.
