I think you may have it backwards, summer is DST winter is normal time.I hate DST. Glad were back on Normal time.
What's not to like? By The start of summer the sun is coming up at 520 am and the last rays are over the horizon at 945 pm.... makes for much better cruising time and more productive time.
And that's as close as I want to get. lol.Your area is really not that far off the 12/12 split.
Let's just pick one or the other and leave it all year, IMO. Up north I would prefer standard time due to the late rising of the sun. DST would have it dark here until almost 10 in December and January.
