[–] SparrowRanjitScaur@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) It's interesting that the solstice is considered mid summer in Sweden. In the US I've usually heard that the solstice is the start of summer permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago I'd say that the summer months in Sweden are considered to be June, July and August, making Midsummer fall slightly earlier than in the middle of summer. Summer weather lasts for more than that nowadays though, with the weather getting nice in May and lasting a bit into september. permalink fedilink source parent
