What is Winter Solstice?

The National Weather Service is reminding us that Winter Solstice is fast approaching, but what is it?

From The U.S. National Weather Service North Platte

The Winter Solstice is fast Approaching. Right now our day length is 9 hours and 30 minutes.

This will fall to 9 hours and 12 minutes December 21st which has the lowest day length of the year.

Our longest day is June 21st at 15 hours and 8 minutes.

That is called Summer Solstice.

We hope this helps you understand what Solstice means. It appears to be in direct relation to the amount of sunlight in a given day during the year. Enjoy the light and always be delight in the darkness!
