After I posted this I remembered that there's a lot more land north of the equator -- about 65-70% of the land mass.

And a lot more people -- about 90% of the world population!

The Wikipedia article on cultural definitions of "summer" is interesting, too, since they vary by a few weeks in different countries. But I couldn't find one where mid-July wasn't squarely in the "summer" category.

So, yeah: it's /mostly/ summer on planet Earth.

Summer has arrived in a lot of places around the world.

Depending on how you define it, about 50% of the places around the world.
