It's dawn - at 8.50 am

Sunrise: 9:20 am. (this alone means nothing given time zones are somewhat arbitrary)
Sunset: 2:51 pm.
Day length: 5 hours 31 minutes.

But it’s cloudy anyways so I wouldn’t see the sun even if it was up.

Singapore (1.3521°) Winter solstice - sunrise 7:02 am, sunset 7:05 pm. Spring equinox - sunrise 7:08 am, sunset 7:15 pm. Basically a 12 hour “day” year round.

Alberta winters can be cruel, but one of the saving graces of living here is that it is light enough long enough to get in a full 18 holes after work during the summer months.

Ahhh, my bi-annual gloat. Being a southern-hemispherite, today was our summer solstice with sunrise around 5.50am and sunset at 8.47pm.

Shiver in ya boots Northerners. :wink:

Sunrise was at 8:04 AM, sunset was at 4:15. I’m near Vancouver.
The times don’t matter because it’s been mostly raining. Yesterday, for variety, we got a hellacious windstorm that took out the famous White Rock Pier by driving a bunch of good sized boats through it. There’s now about a hundred feet of it missing.

I’m not going to miss going to work in the dark and going home in the dark! Bring on the Solstice!

I have a friend whose husband was a meteoroligist in the USAF. They spent 3-1/2 years in Fairbanks, Alaska. She told me that on the first day of summer, the longest day of the year, the post had a softball game at midnight. The field had no lights because it didn’t need any.

I’ve never had it that bad. When I was in Iceland the sun would rise about 11:30 and set about three. Since I was in a windowless building unless I made a deliberate trip to look out of the door, I never saw the sun but for the weekends.
