I love watching the East to West reflection of the Sun in the oceans as we spin.

We are nearing the top June 21st Summer solstice.

Then that reflection will begin moving lower from Earth's equator.

Note the newly forming Tropical Depression.

(Night views show various city lights.)

No wonder those Divi trees in Aruba lean to the West.

But watch out for the Derecho!

Here's an interesting satellite view showing why it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere and winter in the Southern Hemisphere at Summer Solstice.
