Marcus R says: "The 23rd of November was the first day of Winter".
Wrong.
The average date for the start of winter is December 21st but because of the calendar having approximately 365.24259 days in a year, therefore the seasons can change a couple of days either way of the 21st.
The time around December 21 or 22 is a very important day for our planet and its relationship with the sun. December 21 is one of two solstices, days when the rays of the sun directly strike one of the two tropical latitude lines. In 2006 at precisely 7:22 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on December 21 (00:22 UTC on December 22) winter begins in the Northern Hemisphere and summer begins in the Southern Hemisphere.
