On Thursday, September 18, the sun dips at 6:59pm, and each evening will get a little shorter until we reach December 21, the winter solstice -a.k.a. the shortest day of the year-with just 9 hours and 15 minutes of daylight. Translation: Bundle up and get used to leaving happy hour in the dark."
"Of course, it's not all bad news. The flip side of earlier sunsets is the return of cozy autumn evenings. Hoodie weather, cooler breezes and the thrill of watching the city glow under streetlights again? Pretty unbeatable. Plus, fall sunsets often hit different; the colors are richer, the air is crisper, and the city skyline looks like it's been run through a filter."
