Here Comes The Sun

It's the Winter Solstice today folks.

From tomorrow the sun starts to come back to us here on the roof of the world.

Woop, woop.

    1. Only those who live in the north know how dispiriting the gloom gets.

  2. Axial tilt and temperature lag mean that the cold is yet to come... Now watching the country file Christmas weather forecast. Looks like rain. Q'uel surprise.

    2. Indeed I am John - relocated the Rhode Island USA until the end of next year. Dec would usually be my Summer solstice at home!

  4. Right on! Being a good 'ol Texan, I definitely don't understand it. But I do like to see the sun shine through magical portals once in a while and I definitely never complain about the return of 'normal' weather around here (above 90 F- 7 months of the year!!!).
    Merry Christmas everyone!

    1. It's the light you really miss here. London is warmer than New York in winter but we have no light.
