in addition to the temperature change, i think the thing that makes the switch even more noticeable to my eye is that the new LED lamps must have a CRI that is an order of magnitude higher than the old sodium lamps.
with the new LED streetlights i can actually make out the true color of objects now, blue looks like blue, red looks like red, green looks like green, etc.
with the old sodium lamps, everything was just washed out in a sea of unrelenting orange. i liked that. it felt magical and moody. but alas, no more.
now, night time is a lot more like day time, there's no more weird transformation into "orange world" at twilight.
