In an effort to find hope and have something to look forward to while living through this dark and cold West Michigan winter, I searched online to find out when West Michigan will finally see a sunset after 6 PM.

I've got some good news, It's happening pretty soon!

According to TimeandDate.com, Grand Rapids will see its first sunset after 6 pm on Wednesday, February 5th at 6:01 pm.

If you're wondering about other sunset times, I've looked into that as well.

Grand Rapids will get its first 7 pm sunset on Sunday, March 9th when the sun will set at 7:42 pm.

This is because on the 9th we start Daylight Savings Time.
