Wait but at 12:30 AM Colombian time, both Colombia and
Brazil would be on the same date. And Brazil would
have to be summer/winter with Colombia as spring/fall
(in the June 1st scenario). So wouldn't it be:
Brazil N of Equator at 12:30 am Brazilian time is
summer
Brazil S of Eq. at 1230 am Braz. time is winter
Colombia N of Eq. at 1230 am Braz time is spring
Colombia S of Eq. at 1230 am Braz time is autumn
