Astronomical summer focuses on the position of the Earth in relation to the sun. Sometimes the summer solstice, or the longest day of the year, is on June 20, sometimes the 21st, or sometimes the 22nd. That is because the 365-day calendar year doesn't perfectly align with the Earth's solar orbit, which takes about 365.25 days, so leap years shift the dates slightly.
So, a group of scientists at Climate Central analyzed historical temperature data from June, July, and August (meteorological summer) from 243 cities across the country to find that summers have warmed in 97% of those cities. From 1970-2025, summer has warmed by an average of 2.6° across the country, and cities are seeing 22 more hotter-than-normal summer days since 1970.
But now to Los Angeles, summers are cooling slightly, with three fewer above-normal summer days per year since 1970. This is the same trend for Monterey, but with a bit of missing data. Either way, the marine layer is so important, acting as Mother Nature's natural air conditioner to keep the California coast cool during the summer.
So yes, technically meteorological summer begins tomorrow, but for coastal California, the real heat doesn't start until September rolls around. Climate change impacts different parts of the country differently, so even though coastal California residents might not be feeling hot this summer, there's a lot of the country that wishes they were where you are.
