Longest and shortest day in Kallakurichi
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 12h 48m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 4 months, with 11h 26m.
Between them the day length swings by 1h 22m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 5:46 pm on 18 November; the latest is 6:42 pm on 11 July. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.
Sunrise ranges from 5:49 am on 31 May to 6:39 am on 25 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 7m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Kallakurichi different
It takes roughly 22 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.
The gap between the longest and shortest day of the year comes to 1h 22m, one of the narrowest swings of any India city on the site.
Between solstices the sunset walks 48° across the horizon — WSW in midwinter, WNW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.
By the end of August the sun will be setting 14 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 29 seconds a day.
Being inside the tropics means two zenith passages a year, 21 April and 23 August, when the sun is straight up at solar noon rather than merely high.
The times barely move this week: the longest day of the year falls on 21 June, 2 months ago, so day length is changing by under a minute a day. Sunset shifts just 9 minutes earlier over the next fortnight.
