Hi Sunwatchers,
We have Beginner Blossoms in the gardens now! Hamamelis is in full flower. See the header, above.
And more colours are emerging now!
Winter Aconites
Pieris japonica
Heather Blossoms
YVR had a record high temperature today (about 12 degrees) breaking one from the early 90s. We have so much to anticipate as spring begins to unfold from the dark damp of winter.
The sun is making so much progress in “returning” to us. It is very close to setting north of the building to my southwest. There was one REALLY bright patch of sun to the north of the building as the sun set this afternoon. A matter of days until the ball is around to my side of the building!
I’m driving to work in light again! Hooray. That is such a relief.
The sun rose today at 7:40 so there is light in the sky by 7. It set at 17:13 today (one minute shy of an hour later than the earliest settings in December). The rise was just shy of a half hour before the latest of them in January.
Until next time,
Your Sunwatchers’ Bulletineer signs off.
Love the aconites’ bright yellow lights – thank you!
