OK - did some digging and here's what I found.  Thing is, it also depends on what Texas city you're at.   So I took the liberty of getting data for the more populated Texas areas.  The info is also based on the longest day for 2006 which was June 21st.\n\nAmarillo - \nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 31m\n\nAbilene -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 13m\n\nMidland -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 10m \n\nEl Paso -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 09m\n\nWichita Falls -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 23m \n\nDallas -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 16m \n\nTyler -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 12m \n\nWaco -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 08m \n\nCollege Station -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 02m \n\nSan Angelo -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 07m \n\nAustin -\nLength Of Visible Light: 15h 00m \n\nBeaumont -\nLength Of Visible Light: 14h 58m \n\nHouston -\nLength Of Visible Light: 14h 57m \n\nSan Antonio -\nLength Of Visible Light: 14h 56m \n\nVictoria -\nLength Of Visible Light: 14h 52m \n\nCorpus Christi -\nLength Of Visible Light: 14h 47m \n\nLaredo -\nLength Of Visible Light: 14h 45m \n\nMcAllen -\nLength Of Visible Light: 14h 38m\n\nBrownsville -\nLength Of Visible Light: 14h 37m

It depends on where you are but in Sydney, Australia (where I live) it's probably about 11 hours sunshine(7.30am-6.30pm). I don't know because it isn't spring in the southern hemisphere yet.The grass looks greener that summer- summer the grass is sometimes full dry and the plants look quite springerish.

Yes, in mid-summer, the farther north you are, the greater number of sunlight hourse you get-At the north pole you get sun 24 hrs a day.  But, though you get more hours of sunlight, the sunlight is not as direct, so is not as intense.  But if you are just talking about hours when the sun is up, then the most northerly part of the island would get the most (All but a few times I've been to England, it's been overcast, though..)

Right now in my city you can find the four seasons in just one day !!!!   lol  , well, that’s too much, but what I mean is that we don’t have the same weather all day long:  from 12-6 AM we have a very cold morning (36-50 F), then the sun begins to rise and the day is kind of hot (68-80 F). At 19 hours (more or less) the clouds come to say hello and give us 1 or sometimes 2 hours of rain, after that we have a comfortable temperature (62- 73 F) but with some humidity in the air.\nBy the way, I live in Puebla, Mexico

They don't ALL release oxygen 24hrs a day guys! Oxygen is released during the process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis requires sunlight. Is it bright and sunny in the middle of the night?! \nThat was a response to the previous answerers... I am sorry, I don't know the answer to your question! Perhaps it could relate to the photosynthetic pathway of the plant, eg C4 or CAM rather than just C3? That's just a random guess though. Good luck...

It's not.  It's the longest, but not the shortest.  The shortest is the first day of winter.  And technically, they're both the same length, about 24 hours, but first day of summer has the most daylight and first of winter has the least.  I has to do with the earth's rotation on it's axis-- on the first of summer the hemisphere in question is closest to and tilted towards the sun, maximizing daylight.  The first of winter it's still closest to, but tilted away from the sun, minimizing daylight

It is a great day to be alive : )\n\nIt's 64 and dropping here.  We've been having weird weather here (NW ARKANSAS) also.  All the warm weather has prompted the flora to try and bloom again, even though it's almost winter.  By Wednesday night it's supposed to change drastically with snow, sleet and below freezing temps.  BRRR!\n\nEnjoy the rest of your day : )

The sun does wonders for their coat, you'd be surprised.  I let mine out twice a day for at least 4 hours.

First Day of Summer\nSummer Solstice - longest day of the year\nJune 21st

The Earth is tilted by 23 1/2 degrees. During the Summer months, the north is pointed toward the Sun allowing more direct sunlight. During the winter, we are tilted away from the sun so the sunlight is more indirect as the sun seems lower in the sky. There are 4 cardinal points in our calender; Summer solstice, autumnal equinox, winter solstice and vernal equinox. Beginning of summer, fall, winter and spring. This coincides with the position of earth as it goes around the sun. Each of the cardinal days can take place over a three day period, 20th, 21st, 22nd. On June 20th, summer solstice, it is the longest day of the year. It is also the day that the north pole is pointing directly at the sun. The next day it will have passed this point and start pointing away from the sun, hence, the days will also start getting shorter. For further info, feel free to email me, orion_1812@yahoo.com
