Earlier this week, the Senate unanimously approved a measure that would make daylight saving time permanent next year. The bipartisan bill approved Tuesday would ensure Americans would no longer have to change their clocks twice a year.
The reason for more daylight in the summer months has to do with the tilt of the Earth and where the sun is in the sky.
We will not get any more sunshine on any particular day because of this change. Here are the hours of sunlight on the 20th of each of our 12 months, and those hours stay the same:So, you can see that 10 to 14 hours of daylight from winter to summer is what we see every year, regardless of standard time or daylight saving time.It’s when that sunlight starts and ends by our clocks that would change.the sunlight from one part of the day to another.
Look at current sunrise times for Dec. 21 versus when we’ll have sunrise if we DO NOT change the clocks back in the fall:This would mean that those cold, winter morning commutes would be in the dark.Walking to school or work, waiting on the bus, crossing downtown streets -- all in the dark.Frank’s advice? “Look before you leap -- this is not about your sleep!”Graham Media Group 2022
