Sun questions for Stockholm

How high does the sun get in Stockholm?

At 59.3° N, the noon sun reaches 54.1° above the horizon at the June solstice but only 7.2° at the December solstice. It is never directly overhead this far from the equator.

How long is twilight in Stockholm?

Civil twilight — from first light until sunrise, when you can still see outdoors without lights — lasts about 41 minutes around the equinoxes and 92 minutes at midsummer in Stockholm. 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 Stockholm?

The earliest sunrise is at 03:31 around 18 June and the latest sunset at 22:09 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 Stockholm?

Fastest around the equinoxes: on 17 March the day is 5m 20s longer than the day before. Around the solstices the change slows to a few seconds a day.

Does it get completely dark in Stockholm in summer?

No — from about 24 April to 19 August (118 nights) the sun never sinks 18° below the horizon, so astronomical twilight lasts all night and the sky never gets fully dark.
