Evening win
Under permanent PDT, sunset stays after 5 PM from late February through late October — giving you evening daylight for most of the year.
Morning trade-off
Winter sunrises shift an hour later. In December, the sun doesn't rise until after 9 AM — a real consideration for early commuters and school-age kids.
