(WXYZ) — While we may be deep in the heart of winter, the days are getting longer, which means more sunlight and less dark and gray.

In January, we gained just over 49 minutes of daylight, and that number will continue to increase.

Now, in February, we're gaining even more sun. Throughout the month, we'll gain 1 hour and 11 minutes of daylight.

In March, we spring forward on March 8, and by the end of the month, we'll have gained nearly 1 hour and 26 minutes of daylight.
