If we had the EPS a couple weeks later it would work. I think this just needs time to settle in for more than a cold shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My soph year in hs the country remained on DLS rather than switch back to Standard time. It was awful. On cloudy/stormy days it remained dark to at least mid morning Kids were falling asleep in class. It was just odd looking out the window at 930 or so in the morning and noticing how dark it still was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really do hope this is pushed out into the future as far as possible. I love a good storm as much as anyone, but I’m very sympathetic to people who will be unable to heat their homes for no cause of their own. heating oil up 75% vs this time last year. Pretty much anyone in the middle class is seeing their after tax raise get wiped out by this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like some Colorado valley weather lately with these consistent big swings. Last 2 days: 57/23 and 62/26. Upper 20s this morning so another 30+ diurnal swing in the works, not bad for late Oct. Today's PC breaks a string of 4 sunny days, almost unheard of at this time of year. The month has had 16 sunny days,4 more than any of the previous 24 Octobers here - ironic for a month with AN precip. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon, no one is forced to stay inside because it is dark lol....what is this the 1500's?? lol At that time of the day gyms begin to get crowded with the after school and work crowd. And there is this new craze called working out at home. You may have heard of it during the past 3 years???? For $200 someone can purchase weights, exercise bands, and a stationary bike. Also there are plenty of people who go running when it is dark No one, repeat no one is getting diabetes because it gets dark early.. Laziness has nothing to do with it being dark early. Laziness is a choice regardless of when the sun rises or sets.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only saw bare ground during December 2 of 9 years, 1979 and 1982, but clouds and bare ground on Dec 10 meant nearly dark by 2:30 even though sunset was more than an hour later. Early summer sunsets after 9 PM made up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gone are the hiking from 7-9pm days of summer, lol. Sure one can go to the gym or do sit-ups in their living room, but not the same as getting outside.

Kids test better in school with early daylight, and are more likely to be obese, depressed and sedentary with that early darkness. Pick the poison, ha. Its always a big topic in the northern tier rural zones. I had an entire UVM course around the Maine Winter Sports Center and combating lack of activity in kids (and their parents) during the darkest and coldest times of the year. Got some great trips out of that class to Fort Kent, lol. I’ve always wondered how activity levels after school and work would be if we could combine heat with low daylight. Like gets dark at 4pm but it’s still 80F at 8pm. Does that change routines of basically hibernating (especially more rural communities) during the dark time of year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIPPYVALLEY Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 So what does it take to finish off the yellow jackets for the season? Mid 20s? Lower 20’s? We have already had multiple mornings below freezing here and several in the upper 20s yet they’re still going. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
