Autumn equinox.
On a (possibly) depressing note, this is the autumn equinox.
The name equinox means "equal night" in Latin. It’s the day of the year when all points on the earth's surface experience the same lengths of daylight and darkness - 12 hours of each.
After tonight, the nights will be longer than the days in the Northern Hemisphere.
All downhill to winter now.
