About a 6:15 am alarm

A 6 am alarm is a common choice for people starting work at 8 am with a commute. It gives time for breakfast and a calm start without rushing for the 7 am rush hour. A quarter-past time gives you a small buffer when you want a few extra minutes before a half-hour appointment. Many people choose it to avoid the crowd of alarms that go off on the hour, and it suits anyone who needs a slow, unhurried first fifteen minutes to get moving.

In London the sun is already up at 6:15 am in March, April, May, June, July and August. It is still dark, or already dark, at that time in January, February, September, October, November and December.
