Days are getting longer
- Thread starter ToSlow
- Start date
Actually, by that date it's only 26 minutes more daylight time than the winter solstice (at least for Toronto), but yes, it's headed in the right direction.
We're a bit further north and we get 31 minutes more by Jan 18th.
I’m talking from winter solstice
So was I.

You gotta wait till February 12th to get a full hour of daylight from the Winter Solstice:

Sunset and sunrise times differ depending on your latitude.
The further north you are, the more swings in daylight hours you'll experience depending on the time of year. This is seen by places on the equator who will see very little variation in daylight, their sunset will always be around the same time all year round. By contrast, the Arctic Circle is defined as the point where you'll experience at least one day of 24 hours of daylight in the summer, or 24 hours of night-time in the winter.
When I Google your statement above, I get a link to "thescotsman.com" Are the days getting lighter for longer? when clocks go forward in 2021
So presumably they are talking about the north part of the UK, the most northern point will experience 41 minutes of daylight change between Winter Solstice and January 18th. John O'Groats is the most northern point of mainland Scotland.

the darkest hour is just before dawn...
If you've been up riding since before dawn you know that's not true.
Any sledding yet? At this rate I won't be surprised if the trails never open down here.
Not yet, probably have to trailer to Cochran or someplace in that neighbourhood.
I fly out for two weeks on the 4th hopefully I’ll get some rides in when i get home
You just jinxed it.
everyone remember this moment.
Yeah it gets progressively better all winter and then in March we roll it back by an hour. I find March is the shittiest month because of this, and also because everyone gets excited about spring only for it to snow the next weekend.
No surprise he hates it.Clocks go *forward* in the spring.
