Sun questions for Mumbai
How high does the sun get in Mumbai?
Mumbai is in the tropics (19.1° N), so the noon sun passes directly overhead — leaving almost no shadow — around 16 May and 28 July. It is lowest at the December solstice, reaching 47.5° above the horizon at solar noon.
How long is twilight in Mumbai?
Civil twilight — from first light until sunrise, when you can still see outdoors without lights — lasts about 22 minutes around the equinoxes and 24 minutes at midsummer in Mumbai. Close to the equator the sun climbs steeply, so dusk turns to night quickly.
When is the earliest sunrise and latest sunset in Mumbai?
The earliest sunrise is at 06:01 around 30 May and the latest sunset at 19:21 around 29 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 Mumbai?
Fastest around the equinoxes: on 20 March the day is 1m 06s longer than the day before. Around the solstices the change slows to a few seconds a day.
