Greenville, SC --Sunrise 7:33 am,  Sunset 5:23 pm (and I was driving home and watched it drop below the horizon. I love doing that!).  9 hrs. 50 minutes. I feel as if we had a long day compared to some of these.
Today, however, marks our shortest day with the sun rising at 7:34 and setting at 5:23 for a total of 9 hrs. 49 minutes. I guess this is the shortest day of the year since it goes back to 9.50 tomorrow.

I found this Farmers Almanac site. It is interesting to keep changing the date and see how the times change.  http://www.almanac.com/sun/rise/zipcode/29601/2009-12-22
Just put in your zipcode to see the info for your area.
