When is the winter solstice dawn and darkness?

Winter solstice is one of the 24 solar terms. Because it is both a solar term and a festival, everyone attaches great importance to this day. Because of this, when the winter of solstice breaks and when it gets dark has become people's favorite topic to discuss. Let me see the time when I come out with you on the winter solstice.

When does the winter solstice break? When will it get dark? The dawn time of winter solstice is about 7:30 in the morning and the dark time is about 16: 40 in the afternoon. During the winter solstice, the daytime is the shortest, the angle of direct sunlight on the ground is the smallest, and the sunshine intensity per unit area on the ground is also the smallest, so the ground gets the least solar heat every day, and the daily heat budget deficit on the ground has not reached the maximum.

When is the date of the winter solstice? There is no uniform answer to the date of winter solstice. After all, not only the weather is different in different parts of China, but also the size is very different. But in theory, it should be the earliest summer solstice, the latest winter solstice, the winter solstice as the reference point, and gradually brighten forward and backward earlier. It's about 5:40-7:00 in the morning, and the weather will also have an impact, such as strong wind and cloudy.

What will happen to the length of day and night after the winter solstice? Living in the northern hemisphere, we will find that the days will become longer and longer after the winter solstice. On March 2 1 day of the following year, that is, the vernal equinox, all human beings can experience the daily life of equatorial residents on this day. From this day on, the day is longer than the night. June 2 1 day, summer solstice, the situation will be reversed again. On September 23, the autumnal equinox, day and night are equal again. Year after year.

But even living in the northern hemisphere, the length of day and night is different. On the solstice of winter, the nights in Zhejiang are shorter than those in Beijing. In the Arctic, you can even live in darkness all day.
