(SPOT.ph) The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration has announced that countries above the equator will experience summer solstice today, June 21. This means that the Philippines will experience daytime a bit longer. Daylight in Manila started at 5:28 a.m. and will end at sunset, 6:28 p.m.
"This is the time when the Sun attains its greatest declination of +23.5 degrees and passes directly overhead at noon for all observers at latitude 23.5 degrees North, which is known as the Tropic of Cancer," reads the statement on the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) website.
Astronomical wonders aside, the people of the Internet have seen this as the perfect opportunity to release a bit of hugot.
We're with you!
"O kay bilis naman maglaho ng pag-ibig mo sinta..."
Love and bubbles?
So many broken hearts!
Hope lives!
Our traffic woes never end.
