You can tell time by observing the position of the sun in the sky. The sun rises in the east and moves westward across the sky, reaching its highest point at solar noon. By noting the direction of the sun and estimating its angle above the horizon, you can approximate the time.
Unfortunately, a sundial relies on the position of the sun's shadow to tell time, so it isn't possible to accurately tell time using a sundial on a cloudy day when the sun is obscured.
A sundial is a way to tell time without a clock. It uses the sun and positions of shadows to tell the time. These are fairly accurate.
Sharp shadow show us that light travels in straight lines and cannot bend around corners.
You cannot accurately tell time on a sundial when it is rainy because the sun's rays are blocked by the clouds or rain. The shadow that the sundial casts is crucial for telling time, so without the sun, it's not possible to do so.
