All small, though. Before March 21, it will be business unusual.

Pretty much every month of the year, unless the USGS is making stuff up.

This is not normal when compared to years prior to 2005.
Since 2005, north America extended daylight savings time by 4 weeks, or whatever it is, but that has no bearing on this issue. The Discovery channel said that Toronto gets 1 minute per day of longer daylight from Dec 21 going forward and northern cities might get a bit more. This is correct, but even so, by Jan 1, only 10 days after winter solstice, it should not be light out until 5:30ish, yet it is. The sky should be completely dark by 5:10 or whatever, since, according to Discovery, we should've only gained 10 minutes of extra light, and a bit more, 12 minutes or so, in the north.
So since US72 noticed it in Cali and Allthingsbeautiful noticed it in the midwest, it's not just happening here.

Unless you can prove (not your "observations") that daylight has somehow been "extended by 25-35 minutes," I refuse to believe it.
Daylight/sunset here has been the same it's always been.

I'm not trying to prove anything. If I had a digital camera I'd take some pics for you, but I don't.

Great site, fleet. I'm surprised at your sunset times. 8:09 in June. We get more than an hour and 10 minutes more in June. However, right now, in January, the sun rises where you are by more than a hour before here.
