The summer solstice happens at 4:51 p.m. ET, according to the National Weather Service: https://www.npr.org/2024/06/20/nx-s1-5013295/summer-solstice-2024-early

There was a big thunderstorm in the early morning hours. I heard thunder and saw lightning flashes at about 3:15 AM ET which promoted me to furl and stow the umbrella on the upper terrace in case of high winds. In the afternoon, on my walk along the David Balfour Park Trail and the Park Drive Reservation Trail, I noticed signs on extensive flooding along Yellow Creek, including debris clogging the culvert leading to the underground portion of the creek south of the CPR viaduct and the grate at the entrance to the culvert at the foot of Milkmen’s Road. The storm produced a real gully washer of a flood !
