Month by month

Time zone: Africa/Johannesburg · -26.202, 28.044

Method

Times are computed with the Skyfield library and the JPL DE421 ephemeris for the city’s coordinates at sea level (GeoNames), using the standard definition: the upper limb of the sun on a level horizon with mean atmospheric refraction (−0.833°). Civil twilight is when the sun’s centre is 6° below the horizon. Local terrain, elevation and actual weather can shift observed times by a few minutes. Times are local (IANA time zone of the city).
