Sunset - Sit Spot #1364 - December 13, 2022

For the past three sunsets, and for the future ones until January 1, the sun has, and will, set just west of "southwest by west" or at 238° on the compass here where we live. 

The time is one minute later than yesterday or 4:46. We will have more sunlight in evenings from now until near summer solstice, however, there will be less light in the mornings until early January and the daylight hours are first shorter and then longer during that same time.
