As is my annual tradition, I wish all of my friends and family a happy Winter Solstice. The days have stopped getting shorter and are now getting longer again.
For anyone west of the Eastern Timezone, which includes me, Thursday will have 30 or so more seconds of daylight than Wednesday. For those of you in the Eastern Timezone and anywhere east of there, Thursday will actually be a few seconds longer than Wednesday due to the solstice being later in your day. But fear not, by Friday we'll all be reaping the benefits of that extra half minute each day. Cumulative!
