Something that is still crazy to me, regarding time zones, is that my hometown (where my mom lives and we visit frequently) is about 1.5 hours to the west, one timezone over.
When I’m taking to her on the phone in the evening, we’ll be talking about it getting darker.
The difference in the sunset 1.5 hours away in another timezone:
About 9 minutes.
This equates to my evening daylight lasting 51 minutes than hers, and her daylight in the mornings starting 51 minutes before mine (in our respective time zones).
Which seems to negate the whole effects of daylight saving time for one of us.
Of course this is exacerbated even more if you’re across the border of a timezone from each other (which I pretty much live on the western border of ET).
