You live around 75ºW, the meridian of UTC-5 timezone
Equation of time for today is around zero/netral which translates to solar noon = 12:00 for timezone meridian
With DST added your solar noon is 01:00 pm

Another reason to dislike DST. I will say one thing I like about it is that it "extends" the pleasant morning/early afternoon light. Kind of a contradictory view though.

I would like the "pre-solar noon" light until about 2:00 or 3:00, then either a quick transition to evening or just cloudy weather.

For me, I like the "post solar noon" light, especially the late afternoon/evening orange light as early as possible

Well yes, if it is followed by a nice early sunset then I agree. I don't mind seeing the post solar noon light around 3:00/4:00 in the winter.

Sun declination is 11º now
For Turku, 60º latitude, that means 19º below horizon at solar midnight (01:30 am)

Which means in 2-3 days you'll start experience "no true night", until late August
