Sun questions for Zagreb

How high does the sun get in Zagreb?

At 45.8° N, the noon sun reaches 67.6° above the horizon at the June solstice but only 20.7° at the December solstice. It is never directly overhead this far from the equator.

How long is twilight in Zagreb?

Civil twilight — from first light until sunrise, when you can still see outdoors without lights — lasts about 30 minutes around the equinoxes and 38 minutes at midsummer in Zagreb. 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 Zagreb?

The earliest sunrise is at 05:06 around 13 June and the latest sunset at 20:51 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 Zagreb?

Fastest around the equinoxes: on 19 March the day is 3m 15s longer than the day before. Around the solstices the change slows to a few seconds a day.
