At a month out from the December southern solstice have you noticed the daylight period getting longer?  I was out at 5:00 PM (CST) last night and it was still bright.  At 6:00 PM a few nights ago I noticed there was still light in the west.  The path of the Sun on the celestial sphere continues to creep northward and we see subtle signs of the changes that lay ahead.
