The Sun is Setting too far to the North for May

Noticed it about a week ago.

The moon was in a strange place also two nights ago, beaming brightly into our living room through the patio door, seemed to be at an angle. It's the first time I've seen it do that. Further south than normal.

I am in Wisconsin, I think that the sun is too high for this time of year. It should be closer. Hence the cold weather. We have A LOT of wind. Walking to work makes me irked that I acutally did my hair in the morning, as my hair is being furiously being rearranged by the wind.

Unlike a lot of people here, I am not noticing the sun being hotter than normal. It actually feels like the sun would in fall, late Sept, early Oct. I haven't gotten sunburned, no new freckles, nothing.

Yes, pitch black here by 5.30 pm, which does not occur until mid winter. Should be getting dark around 6 - 6.30.

My house is oriented square to the compass directions. The north side of it is in shade for all but six weeks of the year--three before the summer solstice, and three after.

This afternoon, as I was coming upstairs, I realized that there was a patch of sunlight on the wall of the stairwell--the sun was shining through the north-facing window. It wasn't a very wide patch, but it shouldn't be there at all this early in the year.

Very strange.

Has anyone else noticed it being in West by North West area?

It has been getting dark too early in Australia. It is the last month of Autumn here, winter begins in June. However, the sun is setting at the time of day is would if it was already mid winter.

I noticed this just the other day, I live in MN. Whoever I mention this to just instantaneously looks at me like I'm crazy.

And the wind has been extremely brutal almost everyday, blowing from EAST to WEST almost everyday! I can only remember like 5-10 days out of my entire life that the clouds and storms went from EAST to WEST here.

Last time I checked, Alaska was north of the tropic of cancer. Last time I checked, Minnesota was too.

So maybe it does apply to you.



Maybe this surprises you too, but have you ever noticed how short the days are around Christmas?

Well there are parts of the world where the sun never rises on Christmas. Where there are days of constant sunshine, there are also days of constant darkness, and the residents eagerly await the return of the sun.

Guess where it rises on that day?



That's right. It rises in the south!

And in the opposite season, it rises in the north.

In between, the sunrise shifts along the eastern horizon. Northward in the spring, southward in the fall. And that's what some of you are looking at, as if you've never seen it before.

8:30 in the U.S. and it just set not till mid summer does it set that late mid summer it sets around 9:00

That is so wierd sounding. I guess I just never put a lot of thought into Australia in those terms...winter...now??? So totally wierd. So, you guys celebrate Christmas for all intents and purposes in weather that would be our Easter?

And I came bearing proof.

One experiment can solve this "new rotation axis" fairly easily. Someone with the equipment to do so, take a time exposure image of the North Star.
