In 2026, the first sunset after 5 p.m. in Milwaukee will be on Jan. 29, according to timeanddate.com. On this day, the sun will rise at 7:09 a.m. and set at 5 p.m. — giving the Cream City nine hours and 51 minutes of daylight.

Wisconsin saw record domestic violence deaths last year
Wisconsin saw 99 domestic violence deaths in 2024, according to a report from End Domestic Abuse Wisconsin, the highest number since the organization began tracking data in 2000.
The analysis included the deaths of perpetrators who died by suicide or law enforcement action.
Meanwhile, more than 100 organizations across the state are struggling as funds dry up through the Victims of Crime Act fund, known as VOCA.
The federal fund pays for domestic violence hotlines, child abuse advocacy centers and other services for crime victims across Wisconsin.
