Sunrise and Sunset Times

On June 12, 2010, the sun set in Florence, Alabama at around 8:03 PM (Central Daylight Time).

You gain or lose approximately 4 minutes per day due to the Earth's slightly elliptical orbit around the Sun, causing our planet's axis to tilt. This results in variations in the length of a solar day throughout the year.

Texas is a big place, and the time of sunset is highly dependent on the location. Houston or Amarillo, San Antonio or Dallas, the difference could be an hour or more.

You can calculate the exact time of sunrise and sunset at the US Naval Observatory's Sunrise/Sunset calculator at the link below.

It doesn't. From the June solstice until the December solstice the sun rises and sets a little further south each day, and from the December solstice until the June solstice the sun rises and sets a little further north each day.

Sunset occurs in the evening, typically between 5 pm and 9 pm, depending on the time of year and location. It does not occur in the morning (AM).

In the United Arab Emirates, during the winter, sunrise typically occurs around 6:30 AM and sunset around 5:30 PM. In the summer, sunrise is around 5:30 AM and sunset around 7:00 PM. These times can vary slightly depending on the specific location within the UAE and the exact date.

Daybreak typically occurs around 30 minutes before sunrise, as the sky starts to lighten and dawn breaks. The exact time of daybreak can vary depending on your location and the time of year. It is when the first light of the sun begins to appear on the horizon.

Believe it or not, the sunset looks red for the same reason that the sky looks blue during the day! It's true!

"White" light from the Sun contains all the wavelengths of light, every color. As the light passes through the atmosphere, a lot of it goes pretty much straight, but some of it - more blue than anything - gets scattered and comes back to your eye from every direction. So the blue sky color light is sunlight that got scattered. Some of the light doesn't get scattered so much, but it does get refracted, and red more than other colors. So when you're looking at the red sunset - or the red sunRISE, same thing - you're seeing what's left of the white sunlight after the blue got scattered back over the daytime part of the Earth, and the red made it to the horizon.

On April 5, 2012 in Olympia, WA, the sunset time was around 7:44 PM local time.

No, throughout autumn the sunset is a little bit earlier each day, but the sunrise is a little bit later each day. At the end of autumn, at the winter solstice, the time from sunrise to sunset is at its minimum.

The sun is rising somewhere and setting somewhere every minute of every day. Please specify a city or a set of geographical coordinates.

On January 29, 2012, sunset on Tybee Island, GA was at 5:56 PM.

The first sunrise in Rajasthan can be experienced in the eastern part of the state, near cities like Jaipur, Ajmer, or Bharatpur. These regions are known for their beautiful sunrise views over the desert landscapes or historical monuments.

This is true only in the winter months, because England is further north and at this time of year the further north you go the longer the night s will be. In the summer, however, the opposite is true, and the sun sets later in England than in Tenerife.

Regardless of whether you are in the northern or southern hemisphere, the sun always rises south of east (and sets south of west) from September-March and the sun rises north of east (and sets north of west) from March-September. So in January, wherever you are, the sun will rise in the south-east.

Sunset time on May 12, 2012, in St. Augustine, FL was around 8:00 PM Eastern Time.

It will vary by the date. Starting at the winter solstice on 21 December, you'll gain a few seconds of sunlight per day until the end of the month, but this will gradually increase day by day. By mid-February, you're gaining about a minute per day, and by the equinox on March 21, you're gaining 2-3 minutes per day. Then it starts to slow down, so that by the summer solstice around 21 June, you're only gaining a few seconds per day. On the solstice, the longest day of the year, you begin losing a couple of seconds per day, and on down to winter.

The pattern is a sine wave.

In Chicago, sunrise will be at 6:21 AM CDT. In Springfield, it will be at 6:31 AM CDT.

At the north pole, there was no sunrise on that date. At the south pole, there was

no sunset. Anywhere in between, the times of sunrise and sunset depended on

the latitude of the location.

Vasant Panchami in 1992 was on Monday, February 3rd.

On June 8, 2012, the sunset in Grand Canyon, AZ 86023 was at approximately 7:34 PM local time.

Sunrise at Cleveland on 21 December 2011 was at 7:49 AM Eastern Standard Time.

Sunrise at Bedford on 5 July 1962 was at 04:48 British Summer Time.

In San Diego, on the longest day of the year (summer solstice - around June 21st), the sunset time is around 7:58 PM. On the shortest day of the year (winter solstice - around December 21st), the sunset time is around 4:45 PM.
