EarlyLate Sunrise

Question: What do you call the period between the latest sunrise and the earliest sunset? Answer: I don’t know. If you said, “the shortest day of the year,” that is, paradoxically, not correct. Instead, the latest sunrise and the earliest sunset fall on separate days on either side of the winter solstice.

Tonight is the earliest sunset of the year.This morning was the latest sunrise of the year. Enjoyed it. It is also a new moon. mjh
