The winter solstice is the time of the year when the sun reaches its lowest point in the sky. It is the shortest day of the year, it deserves special attention.
That’s right, winter begins today, and those of us who have technology in our genes can use it to find out more details and be prepared for this new phase of the year.
Sun position, meteorology and studies
On the one hand, we can prepare cameras and apps to observe the Sun and have its position in the sky under control. This allows us to learn more about the winter solstice, such as the exact time it occurs and how it affects the length of the day. For this we have apps like sunsurveyor.com or Sunlocator, widely used by photographers to identify the golden hours and take more impressive photos anywhere.
We also need to keep weather forecast apps on hand, important now that there are colder temperatures and snow can be a problem in some areas. In this case it is easier, since most mobiles have this information integrated, but you can always refer to this list that we published weeks ago.
At this time of the year, the investigations and studies carried out to verify how the winter solstice affects the Earth and living beings multiply, both in the climate and in the natural cycles of the Earth. You can consult them and filter them by dates at this link.
