HALLOWEEN MORNING WILL BE THE DARKEST MORNING OF THE YEAR ๐ŸŒ…๐ŸŽƒ

Published October 30, 2026

If getting out of bed has felt increasingly illegal lately, there's a reason.

Halloween morning will be Barrie's darkest morning of the year, with the sun not rising until 7:53 a.m.

Compare that to October 1, when sunrise was aroundย 7:16 a.m. So over the course of October, our mornings have basically gone from: โ€œGood morning!โ€

to...โ€œWho scheduled my commute for the middle of the night?โ€

But there's good news coming Sunday when Daylight Saving Time ends and the clocks fall back one hour.

On November 1, sunrise jumps back to aroundย 6:56 a.m. The trade-off? The sun will set at approximatelyย 5:08 p.m.

So congratulations!

You get daylight in the morning... but apparently we're cancelling afternoons.

Without the clock change, sunrise would eventually creep toward 8:50 a.m. in December, so moving the clocks does give early risers more morning light.

Of course, it also means we're entering that magical Canadian season when you drive to work in the dark, work all day, then drive home in the dark.

Basically...We're houseplants now. Take your vitamin D.
