The sun rose two days early – what!?!???

Wessie wants you all think about this oddity…  Breaking the Horizon – Two Days Early

Greenland-By Flickr user kaet44

 

“Several weeks ago, the sun rose two days earlier than normal in Greenland. This news spread fast around the world. While some people cried out that this was a foreshadowing of a 2012 disaster, others blamed global warming or optical illusions.

You may be thinking “the sun rises every day, why is this a news story”, but in Greenland the sun doesn’t rise every day. Days are dark for several months in the winter because of the country’s location and the sun is never high enough to break the horizon.

Residents of Ilulissat, Greenland, a small town on the western coast, see the sun every year on 13 January. However, this year the sun actually rose two days early on 11  January around 1pm.”  Read more  at  http://www.organicbugblog.com/
