Winter solstice sunrise in Donegal, Ireland (Credit:Sian Lindsey/geograph.ie/CC BY-SA-2.0)

With the days getting increasingly shorter and colder, it may appear as though winter has been upon us for many weeks. However, though meteorologists in the Northern Hemisphere consider December 1 as the start of the season, according to the astronomical calendar, the season will not begin until Friday, December 21. Often referred to as winter solstice, it is also the shortest day and longest night of the year. Southern Hemisphere residents, on the other hand, will celebrate summer solstice, the start of the astronomical summer, with the longest day and shortest night of 2018.

                i'm honestly not a fan of any news at all. but TBH this wasn't that bad. i was pretty interested in this artical, even tho its the first one i have read. i love winter to! its my favorite season aside from fall. to me they are tied. i love them both. what is winter and fall like in states aside from OK? i know its on the colder side in fall, and cold in winter, but in OK with fall, it can be hot or cold. and winter here is kind like its supposed to be fall. *occasionally*
