While the sun is setting earliest in the day this week, we're not at our shortest days yet. Find out why, and when we'll have the shortest days of the year:
Did you know the earliest sunsets of the year are happening right now? For our region, the earliest sunset happens around early December - about two weeks before the winter solstice or the shortest day of the year. But why are these not the same day?
Additionally, our latitude plays a role. At our latitude , the earliest sunset occurs during the first several days of December. The sun sets a few minutes before 5 p.m. at 4:58 p.m! Sunsets will begin to get later starting around Dec. 17. The shortest day of the year will happen on the first day of winter. Seasons change this year on Dec. 21 at 4:48 p.m. In Cleveland, we will only have 9 hours and 10 minutes of daylight on Dec. 21!
