Data and source note

Sun pages depend on astronomical calculations and location coordinates. Real visibility can differ because of elevation, horizon, buildings, weather, and whether you need civil, nautical, or astronomical twilight.

FAQ

Why can actual visibility differ?

Terrain, weather, elevation, and horizon conditions can change when the sun is visible.

Should I use today only?

Compare a short date range because day length changes gradually.

Is this enough for safety decisions?

No. Use official weather, marine, aviation, or outdoor safety sources when the decision is consequential.
