When is Hanukkah in 2021? (Sooner than you think)

Believe it or not, Hanukkah is already around the corner. We know — the holiday of lights is really early this year.

According to this website, the dates for this year are earlier than 93.5% of the times that they can possibly fall on the calendar. In fact the next time that they’ll come this early again is in 2051.
