Dam, can’t wait to get my a$$ to Florida, why would anyone in their right mind want to be up north given a choice?
Part of the reason the sun sets later in TV is that TV and MA are both on eastern standard time but TV is considerably west of MA. In fact, TV is nearly as far west as Detroit. It would be interesting to compare sunrise times. TV should have an advantage with total daylight hours due to the tilt of the Earth.
