Here is why the northern U.S. will gain 100 minutes of sunlight next month

With the start of meteorological spring comes an increase in evening sunlight and a chilly and weather active first few weeks.

In the northernmost parts of the country, forecasting company AccuWeather says residents could feel the sun’s warmth with more than 100 minutes of daylight that will be gained throughout March. The increase comes with the return of spring and “spring forward” and the start of daylight savings time. This year spring forward happens on March 9.
