At 5:12 (CST), this morning, Santa had to hang on to the North Pole because it was at its farthest tilt away from the sun.  The Arctic will see a dim sun, just on the horizon, for about two hours.  So, if you think it's a short day here, go north, young man!

Now, daylight will last longer, faster, the farther north you are and, as far as I'm concerned, the faster the better!
