Yes, I've noticed that the darkness is coming later.

According to my phone, sunset today is 5 p.m. sharp and sunrise tomorrow is 7:45.
So it's still pretty dark, but it's unusually warm. By which I don't mean literally warm. Daytime temperatures have been in the teens, 20s and 30s -- got up to about 40, maybe even over, a couple of days. If there's been any below zeros, they were at night. We've only had one or two days with single-digit highs.

Some surprise good news. TODAY is the earliest sunset of the season. Sunrises will continue getting later and later until the 21st. Thanks to Earl Mellor
for the info.

Yay! We are about to start having evenings again, instead of early afternoon turning into night.

One more day- I can do that ;D
For the last week I've been peeking towards the calendar, looking forward to Longerdays. Every time I think something along the lines of "What? It's already/still dark outside? - *'+%* >:("
Longerdays, followed by Christmas, sure is a ray of hope in dull winter days.
- and the sun has come out during the last minutes :laugh: I take it whenever I can.
