Sun questions for Edmonton

How high does the sun get in Edmonton?

At 53.5° N, the noon sun reaches 59.9° above the horizon at the June solstice but only 13.0° at the December solstice. It is never directly overhead this far from the equator.

How long is twilight in Edmonton?

Civil twilight — from first light until sunrise, when you can still see outdoors without lights — lasts about 35 minutes around the equinoxes and 53 minutes at midsummer in Edmonton. The farther from the equator, the shallower the sun's path and the longer twilight lasts.

When is the earliest sunrise and latest sunset in Edmonton?

The earliest sunrise is at 05:05 around 13 June and the latest sunset at 22:08 around 20 June. They don't fall on the solstice itself because solar noon drifts by up to a quarter of an hour through the year (the equation of time).

How fast do the days get longer or shorter in Edmonton?

Fastest around the equinoxes: on 18 March the day is 4m 17s longer than the day before. Around the solstices the change slows to a few seconds a day.

Does it get completely dark in Edmonton in summer?

No — from about 14 May to 30 July (78 nights) the sun never sinks 18° below the horizon, so astronomical twilight lasts all night and the sky never gets fully dark.
