Winter Solstice is here!

And that means that tomorrow....
SunRise: 8:05 AM EST
SunSet: 5:07 PM EST
Length of day: 9h 02m 09s

... and that folks is 2 seconds longer than today! Wooohooo!! Let the upwards trend begin!

And while we are at it, we have the lowest solar noon at: 23.9 degrees altitude. But, come boxing day, we will be up to 24.0 degrees! That is a long way off from 70.7 degrees altitude in the summer, but every tenth counts.
