Why is the weather hotter after the summer solstice?

After the summer solstice, although the sun's direct point begins to move gradually southward from the Tropic of Cancer, the daytime in the Northern Hemisphere begins to gradually shorten, and the altitude of the sun at noon also begins to decrease day by day for the Tropic of Cancer and the areas to its north, the temperature will continue to rise for a period of time in the future because the heat radiated by the sun to the ground is still greater than the heat dissipated by the ground to the air. Therefore, there is a saying that "the summer solstice will not be hot unless it is too late."
The heat we usually feel is not actually caused by the sun, but is reflected from the ground to the atmosphere because the earth is wrapped in a dense atmosphere. Near the ground is our direct heat source. Although the ground absorbs a lot of heat during the summer solstice, it takes about a month for it to be completely released.
On the summer solstice, the Northern Hemisphere does receive the most heat from the sun, but in the dozens of days after the summer solstice, although the sun's position is not the highest, it is still quite high; the daylight is not the longest, but it is still quite long. The amount of heat received each day exceeds the amount of heat lost, so the average daily temperature continues to rise, reaching its highest point during the dog days of summer.

When is the dog days of summer in 2019?

The beginning of the dog days is the third Geng day after the summer solstice. As the 365 days in a year (366 days in a leap year) are not an integer multiple of 10, a Geng day this year may not be a Geng day next year. That is to say, the date of Gengri is variable and not fixed, so the date of the beginning of the dog days is not exactly the same every year, but the date of the beginning of the dog days is always between July 11 and July 21.
