How Many Days Until Summer?

Count down to the start of summer with a live timer. The calculator targets the summer solstice (around 21 June in the Northern Hemisphere) and shows the whole-day count to it, the exact date and weekday, and a weeks-and-days breakdown, on top of a second-by-second timer read from your device clock. The count is computed on UTC midnights so a day is always a full calendar day, and once the solstice passes the countdown rolls forward to next year. You can download an .ics reminder, and everything runs in your browser.

Quick answer

Summer = the solstice, around 21 June (Northern Hemisphere)
