Our journey in the glorious expansion of daylight over Stockholm starts today!
The daylight gain today is modest—just 3 seconds. The expansion will accelerate to a maximum daily gain of 5 minutes 19 seconds on the spring equinox in March.
I am excited to be with you another year to celebrate the milestones along the way.

Today is the 4th Sunday in #Advent.
The last night of #Chanukah.
And the #WinterSolstice.
How lovely to have so many ways at once to acknowledge light, miracles, and hope.
Tjena!
🌅 Today is the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere.
🇸🇪 For people living in Stockholm, today has just over 6 hours between sunrise and sunset.
Follow me for regular updates on the glorious expansion of daylight until Midsommar in Stockholm.
Our journey starts tomorrow!

Greetings, fellow Fedizens. Winter solstice has passed and the days are getting longer, hooray. (Those of us in the Southern half, your time will come.)
Another hour, and the first slightly longer day will begin in my part of the world. The sky is already brightening, and the birds in the garden are busy announcing the new day.
This is as good a day as any to celebrate Joan Mastodon's special ambassodor in the Arctic, the wonderful @NunavutBirder. He too has reason to rejoice: for him up in #Nunavut, it's only six weeks until the sun will rise again, ending the long unbroken arctic winter night:

May 2026 be the year where the ever extending political and cultural darkness begins to recede.

Happy Winter Solstice from Fairbanks, Alaska.
This was the view from my front porch this morning at 11 a.m., right at sunrise (it's -40° outside).
Tjena!
