Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 18:11 on 26 November; the latest is 19:38 on 4 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 06:12 on 6 June to 07:32 on 16 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Zapopan different

On standard time the sun peaks at 12:55, 56 minutes after clock noon, because the city sits near the western edge of its time zone. Sunrise and sunset are pushed the same way.

Sunset here is followed by about 23 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

Over a year the sunset point slides 50° along the horizon, from WSW at the December solstice to WNW in June. Today it is WNW.

By the end of August the sun will be setting 21 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 43 seconds a day.

On 24 May and 20 July the midday sun stands at the zenith, 57 days apart. Those are the only two days of the year with no noon shadow.

Standing 1,565 m up buys you 6 extra minutes of evening sun: the higher you are, the further over the curve of the Earth you can see, by 1.37° here.

Planning a sunset photo in Zapopan

Arrive by 18:30. Golden hour opens at 18:45 and the sun is down by 19:15, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west-northwest — the sun goes down at 282° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.

Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 19:29 and runs to 19:37, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
