Sunrise and sunset times in Alaska?

Answer 1

The time of sunrise changes every day, and also depends on where in Alaska you are.

If you're north of the line roughly through Kotzebue, Allakaket, and Fort Yukon, then

there's a period of a day or more during the year when the sun doesn't rise at all.

Answer 2

Most of Alaska is in Alaska Daylight Saving Time (AKDT = UTC - 8 hrs.) from the 2nd Sun. of March until the 1st Sun. of Nov. and Alaska Standard Time (AKST = UTC - 9 hrs.) the rest of the year. Alaska's Aleutian Islands are in Hawaii-Aleutian Daylight Saving Time (HADT = UTC - 9 hrs.) from March to November and Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time (HAST = UTC - 10 hrs.) from November to March.

Answer 3

Sunrise and sunset times in Alaska vary depending on the time of year and location within the state. In the summer months, Alaska experiences long daylight hours with the sun setting around midnight in some areas. Conversely, in the winter months, the sun rises late and sets early, resulting in short daylight hours. It is recommended to check a reliable source for more specific and up-to-date information based on the desired location and date.
