Michigan welcomes summer 2025. When will season, DST end?
Summer is here in Michigan with June 20 being the longest day of 2025.
As the season kicks off, let's take a look at the coming months in the mitten state, from when summer ends to how long the state will remain in Daylight Saving Time.
Here's what to know.
Summer solstice — the longest day of the year and the start of summer — is June 20, 2025.
In Detroit, sunrise is at 5:53 a.m. on June 20. Sunset is at 9:14 p.m. with 15 hours, 20 minutes of daylight, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac.
The summer solstice is when the Earth's northern hemisphere points most directly toward the sun, according to Earth Sky.
"At this solstice, the northern hemisphere is most tilted toward the sun, by the maximum angle of 23.5 degrees. Conversely, the south is most tilted away, by the same amount," Earth Sky said.
The moment when the Earth tilts most toward the sun is 10:42 p.m. June 20, 2025, according to the Farmers' Almanac.
Daylight Saving Time is when "daylight" begins an hour later in the morning and lasts an hour longer in the evening, according to the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
The clock change allows the hour of daylight to stay coordinated with the time most people are active outside. Daylight saving time is supposed to save energy, since during the warmer months the majority of people will be outside and not home, which saves energy.
Daylight Saving Time began at 2 a.m. on March 9, 2025.
While it is often referred to as Daylight Savings Time, Daylight Saving Time without the "s" at the end is the correct term.
The fall equinox — the end of summer and start of fall 2025 — will be Sept. 22, 2025, per the Old Farmer's Almanac. The equinox will occur at 2:19 p.m.
Daylight Saving Time ends on Nov. 2, the first Sunday of November.

Delta Airlines Cancels Almost 1,000 Flights
The major storm that brought Atlanta's airport to a standstill hit one major airline especially hard. Delta airlines cancelled almost 1,000 flights, largely due to the weather issues in Atlanta, according to View From the Wing. What are the numbers? FlightAware has Delta's June 28 cancellation figure at 581 flights. On June 27, 366 Delta flights were cancelled, according to that site, which noted that only 25 flights were cancelled on June 26, but more than 1,100 were delayed. According to FlightAware, Delta had only 59 cancelled flights on June 29, although 775 flights were delayed. "The storm resulted in hundreds of system cancellations across the system for Saturday. Delta expects additional delays and cancellations as teams work to safely reset aircraft and reposition flight crews," Delta wrote in a June 28 statement. "Teams across Delta are hard at work to take care of customers and recover our operation following a major weather event at our Atlanta hub June 27," Delta wrote. "Thunderstorms developed over the evening, bringing rain, lightning, hail and hazardous wind. The storm caused an evacuation and temporary power loss at the ATL air traffic control tower," Delta wrote. "The hail led to required inspections for over 100 aircraft, which our teams completed by Saturday morning. We expect continued disruption this weekend as we recover safely and as quickly as possible." View From the Wing described an internal Delta document posted on Bluesky by "aviation watchdog" @JonNYC. The document says that Delta will 'pay for accommodations, vouchers, rental car reimbursement,' and more for customers 'whose travel has been impacted by this event.' 'Thank you for your support as we recover our operation following a major weather event in ATL,' the document says. 'You should begin offering hotel, meal, and transportation vouchers immediately. While this weather disruption was not within our control, we are going to use situational flexibility and take care of our customers.'Delta Airlines Cancels Almost 1,000 Flights first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 29, 2025

13 years ago, a derecho devasted Maryland and knocked out power for a week
Thirteen years ago, a powerful derecho left nearly two million Marylanders in the dark and caused massive devastation throughout the state. On June 29, 2012, this intense storm with high winds and heavy downpours knocked out power for more than eight days in Maryland. There were reportedly 9,200 power lines that toppled during the storm. The derecho caused about $19 million worth of damage to the area. Then-President Barack Obama declared a major disaster for Maryland and granted the state federal aid to help with local recovery efforts. Three deaths were reported in Maryland. Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley declared a state of emergency in the aftermath of the storm. What is a derecho storm? WJZ First Alert Meteorologist Cutter Martin says a derecho is an unusually strong and long-lasting thunderstorm straight-line wind event. The word Derecho is Spanish and means direct or straight ahead. The National Weather Service (NWS) says a thunderstorm wind event may qualify as a derecho if the "wind damage swath extends more than 240 miles and includes wind gusts of at least 58 mph or greater along most of its length." Wind can gust over 100 mph during a derecho's lifespan, and these storms can travel hundreds of miles. "It is incredible that this line of thunderstorms raced eastward at nearly 60 mph from the Midwest to the Mid-Atlantic coast," WJZ meteorologist Tim Williams said in 2022. "These storms left a track of destruction that killed at least 20 to mention the millions in property damage and power outages. We may not have been familiar with the term 'derecho' before June 29, 2012. But, how phenomenal that an event so rare and foreign to this area has created a memory that many Marylanders will not soon forget." Damaged in Maryland The derecho originated as a small thunderstorm cell in Iowa and continued to the Mid-Atlantic region, which included Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, New Jersey and Washington, D.C. Along the way, the derecho wind gusts peaked as high as 91 mph. In Maryland, more the 4,800 tons of storm debris were collected in Montgomery County alone. The widespread damage left large trees uprooted and traffic patterns disrupted in Baltimore City and Baltimore County. There were also reports of uprooted trees crushing cars and houses.
