For those who hate short days, today marks the first day when the daylight is getting longer both in the morning and in the evening.

It's been coming out in the evenings since 20th December, sunset reaching 15.57 tonight after a low of 15.42.
Yesterday, the sun rose at 08.17 here, today it's 08.16. Hooray!

FYI: NSO Sunrise and sunset today in the UK
