Sun questions for Yokohama
How high does the sun get in Yokohama?
At 35.4° N, the noon sun reaches 78.0° above the horizon at the June solstice but only 31.1° at the December solstice. It is never directly overhead this far from the equator.
How long is twilight in Yokohama?

When is the earliest sunrise and latest sunset in Yokohama?
The earliest sunrise is at 04:27 around 6 June and the latest sunset at 19:01 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).
