Facts about summer<br />
Dog days<br />
of summer<br />
The phrase ‘dogs days of<br />
summer’ used to refer to<br />
sweltering summer days<br />
has more to do with the<br />
stars than dogs.<br />
The Roman’s ‘dies caniculares’<br />
began towards the<br />
end of July when the star<br />
Sirius (A.K.A. the Dog Star)<br />
began to rise in the sky just<br />
before the Sun.<br />
The star was so bright that<br />
the Romans believed it<br />
gave extra heat to the sun<br />
and was responsible for hot<br />
days in summer.<br />
Snow<br />
in June<br />
On June 2, 1975,<br />
snow showers<br />
forced the abandonment<br />
of several<br />
cricket matches<br />
across the country.<br />
The coldest<br />
temperature<br />
ever recorded in<br />
summer in the UK<br />
is -5.6 °C recorded<br />
on June 9, 1955 in<br />
Dalwhinnie, and<br />
again on June<br />
1 and 3, 1962 in<br />
Santon Downham<br />
in Norfolk.<br />
Height of<br />
summer<br />
Did you know<br />
that on a<br />
hot day in<br />
Paris, the Eiffel<br />
Tower grows<br />
taller?<br />
The tower is<br />
constructed<br />
from iron and<br />
when this is<br />
warmed it expands,<br />
causing<br />
the structure<br />
to grow by up<br />
to 17 cm.<br />
