Wow @tivo shame on you. I paid for my tivo to record shows and skip adds. Now you are taking that away and want me to pay for it on top of buying the device and guide info. Nope. Tivo is dead.

Tonight at 3:20am Central Time, the Winter Solstice occurs leading to the shortest amount of daylight in a calendar day for the year. This also marks the day where astronomical winter begins! The good news? This begins to increase the amount of daily daylight into June!

Happy Winter! Almost. 4:20am Eastern Time will mark the Winter Solstice, when the Earth's northern hemisphere is tilted furthest away from the Sun in its yearly orbit around it. This also means that tomorrow is the shortest of the year for those of us north of the equator.
