From mid-northern latitudes, we can never see the sun directly overhead, but (as an example) as seen from Philadelphia at 1:02pm EDT on the day of the summer solstice, it will attain its highest point in the sky for this entire year , standing 73 degrees above the southern horizon.
After Friday , the length of daylight will not begin to increase again until three days before Christmas .
