neil cooney 10,416 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 That's unreal. Tulips will be next so. Someone started a thread on an Irish shooting forum at they seen a hen pheasant with chicks that were a couple of weeks. It all knocks the theory that daylight length is what starts the cycle.

Where are you getting 12 hours of daylight from? We are another month away from the equinox. Sunrise 7.22am sunset 5.27pm today. TC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tiercel 6,986 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 You still have lost 2hrs out of your day, even where you live. https://www.google.co.uk/#q=sunrise+and+sunset+times+lincolnshire. I agree the shift in the earth's axis is far more likely to cause the weather patterns we are seeing now the the fabled global warming. TC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TC they are based on the sun being in its predicted place, but if the earth has indeed shifted then the sun would be further north and we would get longer daylight hours than we did before.

Well I left for work @ 7.30 this morning and while it was light the sun had not risen, by 5.45pm it was dark here, so if we are having longer days I am not seeing it in W Wales. Edited too add: this morning was clear skies and frost, this evening was cloudy and rain. TC Edited February 19, 2016 by tiercel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 You don't often hear "Sun" and West Wales" in the same sentence. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
