How Many Days Until Winter

This Winter Countdown tool counts the days until the start of winter, which usually begins around December 21 in the Northern Hemisphere. When you visit the tool, it instantly calculates the time difference between today’s date and the first day of winter. The countdown updates automatically in real time, so you’ll always know how close you are to frosty mornings and snow-filled adventures.

For many, winter is a magical season filled with holiday cheer, cozy evenings, and picturesque snowy landscapes. Whether you're looking forward to building snowmen, sipping hot cocoa, or celebrating the holidays, knowing when winter starts helps you plan ahead.
