The Winter Solstice takes place on or about December 21st.
The solstice marks the time when the Sun appears in its southernmost position. In the Northern
Hemisphere, this means that on the Winter Solstice, the sun rises the latest, and sets the earliest
of the entire year. It hangs low and weak in the sky during the brief daylight hours and daytime
shadows are at their longest. Because the day is the year’s shortest, it is also the time of the
longest night.
