Sunsets Dip Fast This Fall | Montpelier News

Burlington’s sun is racing toward winter darkness—Wednesday marks the last day of the year when sunset stays at or after 7 PM. From here, evenings plunge into earlier and earlier twilight, with daylight vanishing at a blistering pace: three minutes lost every single day. By October 19th, sunsets will be before 6 PM, and the rapid fade won’t slow until after the solstice. It’s not just the clock changing—it’s the sky itself slipping away, and you’ll feel it in every shorter day. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
