Brighter Mornings Ahead!

If you're an early-riser you don't need me to tell you that it's pretty dark in the mornings nowadays! In fact, the sun rose today at 7:20am. By the time we get to Saturday, we'll lose a few more minutes of light. Look for a sunrise at 7:24. I looked through the official sunrise records for Rockford and realized the latest sunrise of the year occurs right around New Year's when the sun rises at 7:25am...only a minute later than Saturday! Click on this link to see the sunrise/sunset times for any city in the nation, for any date.

Besides getting an extra hour of sleep this weekend, what's another good thing about turning the clocks back Saturday night? Brigher mornings next week! Let's just hope the clouds will go away so we can actually see one! -ERIC
