Summer
At noon on the first day of winter the sun is 23.5 degrees from the horizon in Albany, the first day of summer is 70 degrees. If it were straight overhead, as is the case on the tropic of capricorn on the first day of summer, it would be 90 degrees.

Corporate executives and sports officials are joining a growing number of elected officials who want to recognize Juneteenth, a day that commemorates the end of slavery, as an official U.S. holiday. The movement is being fueled by the Black Lives Matter protests demanding reforms following the killing of 46-year-old George Floyd by Minneapolis police on May 25.
Juneteenth, which is on June 19, has long been an important holiday in the African American community, a time for celebration rather than mourning and remembrance.
