After dark, alone
Plans that work on your own once the light goes. Pick the time before you go, and tell someone where you will be.
Short days affect many people's mood. If low mood lasts or gets in the way of daily life, speak to a doctor.

Times are calculated with the NOAA solar algorithm for the city centre and can differ by a minute or two on the ground. Sunrise and sunset use the standard 0.833° correction; civil twilight ends when the sun is 6° below the horizon.
How it works
- Open your city's page, or search the list.
- See sunrise, sunset and how much light is left after work.
- Check when your clocks change and how fast the days shrink or grow.
- Pick an after-dark plan, open it in Meet & Mint and see who is going.
