Longest and shortest day in Omdurman
The longest day falls on 21 June 2026, 4 months ago, with 13h 3m of daylight.
The shortest is 21 December 2026, in 2 months, with 11h 11m.
Between them the day length swings by 1h 51m.
Daylight through 2026
The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:16 on 22 November; the latest is 18:25 on 8 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 05:18 on 3 June to 06:20 on 21 January.
Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.
What makes sunsets in Omdurman different
Clock noon and solar noon are 23 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 11:37 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude.
It takes roughly 22 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.
Between solstices the sunset walks 49° 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.
Across October the sunset moves 19 minutes earlier, averaging about 37 seconds a day.
On 3 May and 10 August the midday sun stands at the zenith, 99 days apart. Those are the only two days of the year with no noon shadow.
Sitting in 2 months of the shortest day (21 December) means the sun has almost stopped drifting — 11h 51m of daylight today, and only 9 minutes of movement in sunset over the next two weeks.
Planning a sunset photo in Omdurman
Arrive by 16:49. Golden hour opens at 17:04 and the sun is down by 17:32, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.
Face west — the sun goes down at 263° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.
