Sun questions for Santiago

How high does the sun get in Santiago?

At 33.4° S, the noon sun reaches 80.0° above the horizon at the December solstice but only 33.1° at the June solstice. It is never directly overhead this far from the equator.

How long is twilight in Santiago?

When is the earliest sunrise and latest sunset in Santiago?

The earliest sunrise is at 06:27 around 28 November and the latest sunset at 20:57 around 1 January. 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).
