Dark Sky Before The Sunset | |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29283388 Living in northern Germany where it's normal that winter days are short, but when people confuse 3:30pm with 5:30pm because of the darkness, something is not alright. On the other hand it seems to me that the sun rises earlier than it usually does in winter. Do you think its anything? Or are we just more aware and paying attention to things we didn't used to before? Nah, I don't think it's anything, at least not anything really unusual. Maybe it has to do with all these very large earthquakes during the last decade, of which all altered the earth's rotation speed a bit, but it's pretty unlikely. Probably has just to with the fact that our planet wobbles like a huge drunken ball through our solar system and shifts its axis' angle every now and then - something around every 100 000 years I think. So maybe we're just on the verge of another cycle where it tilts to a flatter ankle. Don't know for sure though, but I know that I'm not just more aware of things than I've been in the past, but that really something changed. |

Odd day indeed. Yes some days it gets dark at 4 30 and others its 5 30. One day last week it was just after 3pm and it was like sunset dark. Puzzled but not shocked in Ontario. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19450781 Here too in BC. Some days it stays light out longer than others. It seems all over the place yet not the shortest day of the year. I've never seen it dark at 4 o Clock before but it has been here. Pitch black at night also. I haven't been able to see or find the moon for days. Still no where in site at 2am and it should be there. I think the planet is rolling around like a top right now. No rhyme or reason. Normal not. Normal and Not. Normal and not. I covered all my windows. The difficult to reach ones with plywood thick 6ml plastic and plywood today. Precut boards for the rest of them. I think we are fucked coming up into 21-12. Somthing is up. Seriously folks get ready for somthing. The way I figure it nothing lost on a few screws, some plastic and some plywood. Can reuse it all later. I'm batting down the hatches. God Blees You All and Take Care To Prepare. |

Quoting: natasha77 Yesterday, i drove up to his house and noticed it was getting dark earlier so i left right away. The Golf Cartr doesnt have working lights. So yes, in fact its been that way for a couple of days now. I don't know if its Earthshattering, but its happening. Usually by December the days start to get a little bit longer, dont they? I think so,too. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 29130142 12/08/2012 07:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well, I too noticed this. It's dark way too early - as if the dusk was obviously much "darker" than ever before this time of the year. I'm an old (enough;) chap living in the countryside and having a keen eye on things such as this. Lots of weirdness has been going on during the last year or two, including the intensity, color and direction of sunlight. So weird, and it just keeps coming. |

Quoting: LEKKER Last night I commented to a friend that I found it very strange that for the last few nights I noticed that it was still very light after sunset in Cape Town.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 29130142 12/08/2012 07:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So it does. So weird in so many ways. If a shift so huge has happened the effects can easily be perceived by anyone with enough eye for details, then astronomers etc. should be going haywire all over the place. They'd be forced to notice something like this immediately. It could of course take some time before the word got out, but *someone* would break the silence. It's not only the hard core pros who would notice this, it would be basically every amateur astronomer. Really, really weird. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 29130142 12/08/2012 08:05 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Perhaps then, something is affecting the way people perceive the reality. Been thinking about this possibility a lot - that the "reality" may and will change as our collective consciousness shifts. Perhaps we're kinda switching between different closely aligned "realities", therefore experiencing things being "out of the place" occasionally until a new, stable version of this simulation has been achieved. |

When we turned the clocks back an hour at the end of Daylight Saving Time Nov. 4, we must have shut off the sun on the late afternoons. To keep up with the short afternoons, we need flashlights and candles after 5 p.m. The shortest day of the year is Friday, Dec. 21. Surprisingly, each year, the earliest sunset does not happen on the shortest day. The earliest sunset occurs in early December. Already, we feel cheated by the lack of afternoons. On Veterans Day, Nov. 11, the sun sets at 4:47 p.m. and the length of total daylight is 10 hours and 5 minutes. This leaves only a few minutes for outdoor activities after school before the sun takes a dive. But wait; it gets worse. The earliest sunsets take place on Dec. 4 through Dec. 9 when the sun sets at 4:35 p.m. although, on the shortest day of the year, which occurs on Dec. 21, the sun will set at 4:39 p.m. in Philadelphia. That day is the shortest day of the year in Philadelphia, at 9 hours, 19 minutes but the sun is setting 4 minutes later than in early December. full source here --> [link to montgomerynews.com] Just Sayin... look @ this: Thread: Upside down moon is really a alien mothership.
