Early daylight saving time and late sunrises?

Question

I was wondering if anyone here is bothered by the late sunrise times that this early start to daylight saving time has brought on. Where I live, the sun did not rise until about 7:30 this morning which I consider to be quite late. This really bugs me. Does it bug anyone else?

Answer 1

The sunrise now (in the US with Daylight Saving Time) is still not as late as in December when there's no Daylight Time.

This morning, Monday the 12th of March, the sun-up here in New York will be at 7:13 a.m. That seems late, but for five solid weeks in December and January it comes even later, as late as 7:20.

Before the last Sunday of October, the sun also comes up later than today, about 7:20 a.m. for a few days. Most everyone seemed to accept that. I didn't hear about any campaign to shift the end of DST to September. In fact, I remember that a lot of people lamented the change back to Standard Time!

I'm not bothered at all! I'm 100% for Daylight Saving time, and I welcome the extra hour of daylight in the evening, when people can enjoy it after work, rather than having the sun come up before 6 a.m.
