G'day Wim
You are using the wrong definition of summer.
You should define it as days when the sun reaches more than [say] 40
degrees above the horizon and you have more than 6 hours of sunshine
per day. Alternatively, you can define it in terms of plants
fruiting, birds nesting/fledging or people sunbathing.

ONE HOUR SUMMER HITHERTO IN TROMSØ, BUT MAYBE SOon
If one reckons, as we do, that real summer weather are temperatures
above
20*C, we have until now have had exactly one hour of summer weather:
last
Sunday when the temperature in the late afternoon climber to 20.2*C
for one
hour. Since then we have been back at the usual northeasterly chilly
winds,
although today the weather was quite nice by our standards: little
wind,
lots of sun, and a temperature of 15-16*C. On the surroundings hills
there
are now only smallish patches of snow left, and even the higher
hills are
largely snow free.
