Fall Begins Sunday!

Soak in the last few hours of summer, because it is rapidly coming to an end!  As of 3:44 pm CDT on Sunday, the Autumnal Equinox will occur:
This means that both the northern and southern hemispheres get equal amounts of sunlight and we will both have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness.  That also means that after tomorrow, the nights will become longer than the day for us in the northern hemisphere. Here's a graphical representation of what's going on in space. - MT
