Winter is coming, and with it cold, short days (and maybe some snow if we're lucky). While it may not yet quite feel like it, this Sunday the clocks will be turned back an hour, dragging those long dark evenings closer to our everyday lives and, as this infographic shows, our daily commutes. The sun rose in London today at 07:48, over an hour before the usual office job began and likely before most people embarked on their journey to work. At around 17:30 the sun will set, meaning many can still grab at least some time in daylight on their way home.
The situation will be different from Monday though: On 1 November, the sun will rise in the UK capital at 06:54, but will set well before most office workers are able to leave: 16:33. Therefore many will have to make their way home in the dark. As data from timeanddate.com shows, this is going to be the case until late February. Time to root out the scarf and gloves.
