Sun questions for Jeddah

How high does the sun get in Jeddah?

Jeddah is in the tropics (21.5° N), so the noon sun passes directly overhead — leaving almost no shadow — around 28 May and 15 July. It is lowest at the December solstice, reaching 45.1° above the horizon at solar noon.

How long is twilight in Jeddah?

Civil twilight — from first light until sunrise, when you can still see outdoors without lights — lasts about 22 minutes around the equinoxes and 25 minutes at midsummer in Jeddah. Close to the equator the sun climbs steeply, so dusk turns to night quickly.

When is the earliest sunrise and latest sunset in Jeddah?

The earliest sunrise is at 05:41 around 1 June and the latest sunset at 19:10 around 24 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 Jeddah?

Fastest around the equinoxes: on 19 March the day is 1m 15s longer than the day before. Around the solstices the change slows to a few seconds a day.
