The winter solstice happens at 11:48pm tonight, marking the shortest day of the year and meaning winter has arrived.

One of the things that I like the least about winter is the short day and the long night. Well the shortest day of the year and the longest night of the year is upon us. The good news is each day starts getting a little longer starting tomorrow. That's not much for summer lovers, but at least it's something.

For those who yearn for warmer weather and longer days, here are some dates to remember according to wheniscalendar.com...

Sunday March 13th, 2016 2:00am.  Spring Ahead....move clocks ahead 1 hour

Sunday March 20,2016. First day of spring.

Monday June 20th, 2016. First day of summer.

I won't include my birthday on this calendar, because it is blatantly self serving, but I promise I will give you plenty of notice.
