I heard today that European Union will remove the Winter Hours and keep the Summer Hours only, was in the News today.
I remember in UK in Summer it used to get dark at around 10:30pm / 11:00pm in London. I think going North it gets dark even later right ?
Yes, hence British Summer Time where the clocks “spring” forward in the Spring and “fall” back in Autumn. The EU may well abandon the practice, it will be yet another thing for our government to mess up as they try and sort out Brexit.
That said, the Winter will still get the long, cold, crisp dark nights that we astronomers enjoy; nit even the EU can foul that up |
