The winter solstice is tomorrow at 21:48 UTC. This is the time that the pole reaches its maximum tilt away from the sun.
Given that:
Is it the shortest day (sunup - sundown)?
Which night is the longest night (sundown - sunup)?

@WomanCorn Depends on local time right? Whichever range of two local midnights the solstice time lies between becomes the shortest day. Similar for night with noons.
For example: if the solstice timestamp is 5 min after noon, then thatnight will be the shortest. 5 min before noon and the previous night was the shortest
