The shortest day in Adelaide, as everywhere else in the Southern Hemisphere, is around June 22, depending on the year.
I think that would be the winter solstice or the first day of winter.
December 21st, at the very same moment as the winter solstice in the north.
London, like the entire Northern Hemisphere, will have its shortest day of the year on December 21, 2009 (the Winter Solstice). The longest day of the year for the Northern Hemisphere is the Summer Solstice, June 21, 2009.
A solstice is the longest or shortest days of the year. (December 21 is the winter solstice or shortest day of the year, June 21st is the longest or the summer solstice) Equinox is when the day and night are equal amounts of time.
a soltice is a day where the day is either the shortest or longest in the year, there are two soltices, the summer solstice (june 21st) the longest day of the year and the winter solstice (december 21st) the shortest day of the year

I think that would be the winter solstice or the first day of winter.
No, it's not.The day with the shortest time from sunup to sundown is the Winter Solstice, which in the Northern Hemisphere usually falls within a day of December 21. In the Southern Hemisphere, this same date will be the longest day of the year.
Brumal is the name of the shortest day of the year
Yes. Longest day of the year in one hemisphere, and shortest day of the year in the other hemisphere. So our summer solstice on June 21 is the longest day in Europe or America, but the shortest day for the Australians.
The Adelaide Cup is held on the 14th of March each year, most South Australian businesses close for the day.
An equinox is not the shortest day. It has the same amount of daylight and darkness. The solstices have the longest and shortest days. The winter solstice is the shortest day of the year in terms of the amount of daylight.
In the northern hemisphere the shortest day would be the 21st of December.
Because it is the shortest day of the year.
No. It has equal amounts of daylight and darkness. A winter solstice has the least amount of daylight and can be regarded as the shortest day of the year. If your clocks go forward once a year, then that particular day has 23 hours, so that could also be said to be the shortest day of the year.
