This is an old backpacker trick. This only works for adults though as children's hands are too small.
Find the horizon, and now place your right hand palm facing you so the bottom edge(ie your pinky) is parallel with the horizon. Now place your left hand on top of your right, and keep doing this until one hand covers the sun. The number of hands required to do this is generally equal to the number of hours of remaining daylight.

What is difference between occupancy and daylight sensors?
Simply put, daylight sensors sense the amount of light in an area and either dim or turn off electric lighting sources to that area. Occupancy sensors are not impacted by the amount of daylight in a space, but by the motion of people within the space, keeping the lights on when there is movement and turning them off after a set time without movement.
Why does Washington state have longer daylight than southern California when they are in the same time zone?
Washington is farther from the equator than California. The closer you get to the equator, the less the amount of daylight per day deviates from 12 hours. The closer you get to the poles, the greater the difference in the amount of daylight between the summer solstice and the winter solstice. I used to live between 40° and 41° north latitude. The amount of daylight there on the summer solstice is about 15 hours, and it's about 9 hours on the winter solstice. Now I live near 30° north latitude, where we get about 14 hours of daylight on the summer solstice and about 10 hours on the winter solstice.
