It is getting lighter every morning, but only by a minute or so at the moment. Probably end of January before it gets noticeable if you're like me and up at 6am! It gets worse for a while in March when the clocks go forwards - it seems to be darker for a while (but at least it's light at night then).
Give it another couple of weeks - I usually find I'm leaving work in semi-daylight by mid-Jan which makes a huge difference!

can't wait for it to get lighter - can cope with the weather but the lack of light is so depressing!

The morning start to get better from about 4th Jan, while the evening start from 16th Dec which is why to balances out to make the shortest day overall 21st Dec. So it is getting better from now on, though it will take a well for it to be noticeable.

My OH and I were just discussing this the other day, and he looked it up, right now we are only gaining 4 minutes of light a week. Heavy sigh....wish it were spring!

Oh hello fellow SAD sufferers!! ;D
Here to cheer thee up is the list of sunrises and sunsets.
Sunrise Dec 31 08.06 Jan 07 08.05 Jan 14 08.01 Jan 21 07.54 (yippee! The first pre-8am sunrise!) Jan 28 07.45
By Feb 25th the sunrise will be before 7am. Remember though it gets lighter just before sunrise.
Sunset Dec 31 16.01 jan 07 16.09 (we're already 10 mins longer - yippeee!) Jan 14 16.19 Jan 21 16.31 Jan 28 16.43 Feb 04 16.55 (so by the 7th, it'll be after 5pm! Yippeeee!)
Not that I'm obsessed or anything, but I insist on one of the diaries at work that contains each week's sunrise and sunset!!! ;D
