Actually, Mom, the Winter Solstice occurred at 10:08 PM last night on the west coast. That moment marked the Winter Solstice, one of two points (along with the Summer Solstice) on the ecliptic, the great circle of the celestial sphere that is the apparent path of the sun among the stars or of the earth as seen from the sun (the plane of the earth's orbit extended to meet the celestial sphere), at which its distance from the celestial sphere is greatest and which is reached by the sun each year at approximately this time.
