Summer Solstice 2019

Image
Do you know? Summer Solstice is June 21, 2019, the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere. This year, the northern summer solstice falls at 11:54 a.m. ET. And South of the Equator, the same moment marks the unofficial beginning of winter! Solstice around the world- occur at the same time [with time zones, local times may vary].  The solstice occurs because the Earth’s axis of rotation is tilted around the sun.  This tilt is the driving force of our plants seasons, as the Northern and Southern Hemispheres get unequal amounts of sunlight over the year.   In the months from March to September, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted more toward the sun – bring in spring and summer.

June 1 until July 4 th marks the beginning of National Fireworks Safety Month It’s always essential when using fireworks, to be cautious, because of the severity of the injuries they can cause. Burns on the hand are the most common, because the hand is always closest to them. These injuries can range from minor burns, to blisters, to severe burns that cause excessive damage to the skin. Hand injuries can also include cuts, broken bones, torn tendons, and in the worst possible occurrence, amputation. These injuries are the result of standing too close when a firework explodes, or trying to hold onto them as they are lit. Eye and face injuries
