Monday, December 21st at 11:48 p.m. EST, marks the Winter Solstice for 2015.* This is the moment when the Sun reaches the Tropic of Capricorn, and we have our shortest day and longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. Regardless of what the weather is doing outside your window, the Solstice marks the official start of the winter season. While we celebrate the Winter Solstice, those living in the Southern Hemisphere will be simultaneously marking the Summer Solstice. farmersalmanac.com/astronomy/2015/12/15/get-ready-for-the-2015-winter-solstice/

I'm really enjoying the start of winter this year. We'll be getting close to 70F on Thursday.

We will be close to 80 here at the beach or so they say.

Our local weather said it was 82 at Virginia Beach today.
We made it to 72.

We are a little south of Va. Beach ... and made it to 77
79 for a high come tomorrow, which will not break the record from the 1800s ...
We had a red sky tonight...
