Where I live we recently passed the mark for earlier sunrise today than March the 8th

Europe this question is relevant for those who live in Scandinavia. Your DST change was March 30th, but those extremely far north may have caught up already to more sun in the morning today, than the day before the day you complained of it being too dark in the morning.

For Europe the answer is yes if you are North of 62 degrees latitude
Day of Clock change was March 30th

For North America it's the 39th parallel you need to be north of
Day of Clock change was March 9th

I'm at 60N and the sunrise was 57 minutes later (thanks for that). At the Arctic Circle the sunrise was 56 minutes later on 30 March.

Yep see almost 60 minutes

Need to drive about 200 km north to reach the point of today being 60 minutes

Anyone from Canada would have to say yes...though Saskatchewan is not applicable since it doesn't change the clock there

No DST here.
But find data for mexico city - the annual earliest sunrise is just before spring-forward, about half an hour earlier than the summer solstice
