For those of us living in the Northern Hemisphere, today at exactly 17.16hrs UDT, the Earth's axial tilt is most inclined towards the sun, at its maximum of 23° 26'. (For practical purposes, in this instance UDT can be taken as GMT).
This is known as the Summer Solstice. The Sun reaches its highest position in the sky today. Up to now the days have been getting longer with more hours of daylight. From today onward this process reverses and the days get progressively shorter as we head back into another winter.
The good news is that because of Thermal Lag, the warmest days of summer are still ahead of us, so get out there and enjoy it while it lasts!
For those living in the Southern Hemisphere, the opposite is true.
Top marks to Katie Morag at post #23 for the best guess and thanks to everyone else for your amusing answers.
