Longest and shortest day in Tiruchirappalli
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 2 months ago, with 12h 45m of daylight.
The shortest is 22 December 2026, in 4 months, with 11h 29m.
Between them the day length swings by 1h 16m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 5:48 pm on 17 November; the latest is 6:42 pm on 12 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 5:51 am on 30 May to 6:39 am on 26 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 7m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Tiruchirappalli different
From sunset to full civil darkness is 21 minutes here, against a 24-minute median elsewhere today. Latitude 10.8°N accounts for the 3-minute difference.
The gap between the longest and shortest day of the year comes to 1h 16m, one of the narrowest swings of any India city on the site.
The sun does not set in the same place twice: the December solstice puts it WSW, June swings it 48° round to WNW. Tonight, W.
Sunset drifts 27 seconds earlier each day this month — 14 minutes from the first of August to the last.
Being inside the tropics means two zenith passages a year, 18 April and 25 August, when the sun is straight up at solar noon rather than merely high.
Around a solstice the day length flattens out, and that is where the calendar is now: the longest day is 21 June, 2 months ago, and sunset moves a mere 8 minutes earlier in the coming fortnight.
