Daylight Saving Time Returns Tonight


Late tonight at 2 AM, the time will "spring forward" to 3 AM as we return to Daylight Saving Time. Unfortunately, we will all lose an hour of sleep, but we will now gain an extra hour of daylight in the evening. Today's sunrise in Philadelphia is at 6:17 AM and tonight's sunset is at 6:04 PM. On Sunday, the sun will rise at 7:16 AM but it won't set until 7:05 PM. The days will continue to get longer until the summer solstice in June.


For those wondering, we'll pass twelve hours of daylight next Saturday when the sunrise is 7:07 and the sunset is at 7:10 (we'll have exactly twelve hours of daylight next Friday), with our maximum daylight coming on June 21st and 22nd at fifteen hours and one minute.
