Sun questions for Lisbon

How high does the sun get in Lisbon?

At 38.7° N, the noon sun reaches 74.7° above the horizon at the June solstice but only 27.8° at the December solstice. It is never directly overhead this far from the equator.

How long is twilight in Lisbon?

Civil twilight — from first light until sunrise, when you can still see outdoors without lights — lasts about 27 minutes around the equinoxes and 32 minutes at midsummer in Lisbon. 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 Lisbon?

The earliest sunrise is at 06:12 around 9 June and the latest sunset at 21:06 around 22 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 Lisbon?

Fastest around the equinoxes: on 19 March the day is 2m 32s longer than the day before. Around the solstices the change slows to a few seconds a day.
