About sunrise in Illinois
The sun reaches Chicago 8 minutes before Springfield today — that gap is longitude, and it is fixed: the Earth turns fifteen degrees an hour, so every degree of longitude is four minutes of sunrise. Illinois keeps a single time zone, so the clock times below are directly comparable.
