What days are the shortest in December?
That depends on your location on Earth. In the northern Hemisphere it is in December, in the Southern Hemisphere its in June. Roughly around the 21st of December and June respectively. Of course that is only looking in terms of daylight. All days are 24 hours long, except when the clocks change. When they go back, that gives an extra hour, so there are 25 hours in that day and when they go forward, there are 23 hours in that day. In some countries the clocks don't change, so again it would depend on where you are in the world.
