The sun dips below the horizon during the Winter Solstice on December 21, the shortest day of the year. 

The days will now get longer until the Vernal Equinox on March 19, when there will be equal days and nights. 

The weekend brought some snow to the Outer Beach near the Moriches Inlet, where the surf was up and the wind was brisk.
