the earth is on a slight axis (this gives us summer and winter)
and in southern hemisphere its approaching winter.. (autumn there atm i guess?)

I'm not saying the sky is getting darker. If anything, it seems to be growing in luminosity. I am talking about the darkness at ground level.

Hi, I thought it was just me but I've noticed a strange & somewhat eerie darkness to the days. I know we are in the season of winter (I live in the UK) but the days don't seem to have a full light if that makes any sense. It's as if most of day is in a kind of twilight. Even in the school where I work, we have to turn on all the lights in the classrooms because it doesn't seem bright enough outside. Hmmm...

Strange... It's almost like it's winter.

Jesus, are you serious?

There always variations in the "darkness" of the night due to clouds, moon phases, season etc.

Do we have to go into all of this? This should be common knowledge?

All fine, normal winteryness here in the UK. Sometimes its brighter, sometimes its darker. Completely normal. The things some people worry about......
