The term "summer season" refers to a period of time during the year when daylight hours are long and temperatures tend to be warm or hot. This is typically the season that falls between spring and fall, spanning from June through August in the Northern Hemisphere, and December through February in the Southern Hemisphere. During this time, many people take advantage of the warmer weather by engaging in outdoor activities such as swimming, hiking or camping, while others may travel to cooler destinations to escape the heat. The summer season is also associated with longer daylight hours and often involves more leisurely pursuits like barbecues, picnics, and other social gatherings.
