If so, it seems to be very late, this year. I'm not sure I approve.

When I was young, it was always on the 21st, and that was good enough for people.

There are 365.25 days between equinoxes, and 365 days in the year, so each year the equinox moves back about 6 hours, until the next leap year, when it jumps forward a day again. That's why it isn't always the 21st.

So far, it's been 100% day. No sign of the 50% night.

Maybe it's not going to happen this year.

Round here 'people' have been setting off fireworks all week.
Truly the cold months are upon us.

I'm keeping a close eye on things, to make sure I get exactly 50% sunlight.

If there's 50% anything else, I will not be pleased.
