First off, winter solstice is Tuesday December 22nd at 08:04 GMT. Second, it used to be pitch dark before 5 p.m. this time of year.
Now, tonight, it was still light enough at 5:35 p.m. to clearly see the yellow slide in my neighbor's yard and there was a glow on the western horizon, where the cloud cover had broken. At 5:50 p.m., I could barely see the slide and the western horizon still had a slight glow. Above the horizon, the cloud cover was still lit by the setting sun. At 6:00 p.m., the glow was gone but the cloud cover still had a bare amount of light.
I noticed it somewhat last year, but it is definitely more pronounced more. So, I think this means the tilt of the Earth is off more. I'm going to check off and on over the next hour to see if there is any sign of a second sun in this part of the world (Appalachian mountains of southwest Virginia).
If you're interested, here's an article on the winter solstice: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/12058397/When-is-the-winter-solstice-2015-the-shortest-day-of-the-year.html.

Whole Earth, and all of the Solar System is being showered on buy Great Power of Mother & Father! No one is being left out!
There was no later light, like what we've seen in some of the second sun videos. Could be this part of the world is still out of range.
