For a month of winter, there is no daylight at all. It is literally impossible to wake up after sunrise, because sunrise doesn't happen for an entire month.
- ghaff 8y agoIn all fairness, that's northern Norway which is not where most people live. But the general point is valid. It's mostly the northern mid-latitudes where people want to optimize the clock relative to the sun for different times of year. Further north and further south, it doesn't matter as much (for different reasons).
