**Winter Solstice Marks Longest Night of the Year in Geneva, NY**

According to Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva, NY, tonight marks the winter solstice. This event, which occurs annually, is known as the longest night of the year. As the solstice takes place, the Northern Hemisphere experiences its shortest period of daylight, leading to extended nighttime hours.

This astronomical occurrence signals the beginning of winter, and from now on, days will gradually grow longer as the Earth continues its orbit around the Sun.
