We are in the darkest 60 days of the year here in the Northeast U.S. This is a time of year where the sun angle is very low and on clear days there is a harsh sunlight in early afternoon. By 2PM, the sun is already starting to set and just walking down the street puts the low sun directly into your eyes. Out in the woods, with the trees all bare, the harsh sunlight filters in between the trees in what seems perpetual twilight. By 4PM, it is starting to actually get dark and a chill wind starts to blow.
Hong Kong?
Thailand?
I agree, here in Chile, It’s springtime in the Sudan.
Are you logged in?
Perpetual my aas. Almost dark by four.
Where are you in Chile? I worked in Puente Alto near Santiago, north of Viña del Mar and in Concepcion. I absolutely loved Chile! I’ll never forget Locos Mayo on the coast near Concepcion.
Summer temperatures often exceed 43.3 degrees Celsius (about 110 degrees Fahrenheit) in the desert zones, and rainfall is negligible. High temperatures also occur in the south throughout the central plains region, but the humidity is generally low.
Is Hong Kong in Maine, Vermont or Massachusetts?
Sorry pof! I was making fun of the disconnect between title of the post and post. But I would love to go, mainly so I could sneak into Argentina and nutmeg Messi.

No Hong Kong in MA
Hong Kong still has 11 hour days...not much less than summer...but a lot less rainy.
This is almost worthy of the “bunny/pancake award”.
Phooey!
Pshhh. Yesterday it went dark in Barrow. The sun won’t rise for 60 days

Speaking of sunshine (and we may as well make good use of this thread):
I’ve recently been diagnosed as suffering from a degree of osteoporosis, so I did some studying-up, and found some fascinating information.
I found a very good book on the benefits of vitamin K2, in conjunction with other vitamins, which includes a lot of information as to why many women suffer from this problem in modern cultures; and why this vitamin approach may help with other conditions:
