Chaps in Glasgow at 1am trying to sleep
LIMMEH
I only see 1 chap in Glasgow at 1 am trying to sleep. Where are the others?
Are they in the dark part of the picture?
holy fuck that is actually so fucking cool
I nearly dropped this in c/mildlyinteresting, but I also thought it was too cool.
holy shit Dublin doesn’t even have nighttime from May 15 to July 30. it’s astronomical twilight all night
Many people forget how far north Europe is because of the mild climate we have. Like countries like Ireland and Netherlands are as far north as Newfoundland. And these two countries rarely get heavy snowfall like Newfoundland. And Saint Tropez is on the same latitude as Vermont.
NYC lines up with Greece.
It’s pretty scary when you think about it: Europe’s mild climate seems to be extremely fragile, dependent on the aligning of a few major forces.
Those few major forces are slowly weakening. We’ll have Canadian winters in Europe. Which, hey, I missed snow but also the gas prices in England will have me “wake” up frozen dead one morning
Also we’ll get proper snow cover again in the Alps for skiing though I doubt we can ski much if we get winter hurricanes
So the English went pretty far south to wind up in a frozen hellscape with what are basically hurricanes but with snow
Okay the city I live in has pretty much the same graph, and speaking from experience it’s not as bad as you’d think at first glance. It’s still dark at night, just for fewer hours.
Wait wtf‽
I’ve been in Ireland during this time of the year and boy you couldn’t tell by the cloud cover.
Round earth propaganda 🙄
We all know earth is a mobius strip.
Wait until you hear about the Arctic circle…
In short: it’s not even a circle.
Almost as if the sun sets earlier in winter or something 🤔
Netherlands was pretty cool in the summer. We were chilling in Amsterdam night one and realized it was 1130PM and basically dusk.
That’s also because the Netherlands are wildly in the wrong timezone. Especially during daylight savings.
Bah it’s only natural they’d be in the timezone meant for Berlin. Next you’ll say Seville shouldn’t be in Belgrade’s timezone…
But Africa is in the dark AF
Is this gonna be on the test?
Whoa, imagine being on the line between day and night!
Where I live we call that “sunset”. Pretty exotic
Proof that the earth is flat
Ah yes, the 'Mericas
