Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night Clock change

The earliest sunset of the year is at 16:09 on 9 December; the latest is 20:24 on 27 June. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 05:05 on 15 June to 07:12 on 3 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Podgorica different

Clock noon and solar noon are 26 minutes apart here — the sun is highest at 11:34 standard time. That gap comes from the time zone's width, not the latitude. Daylight saving adds another hour on top, so today the sun peaks at 12:34.

At 42.4°N the sun cuts through the twilight band at an angle, so darkness takes 28 minutes to arrive: 4 minutes longer than today's 24-minute median.

The shallow approach angle at 42.4° stretches this evening's golden hour to 54 minutes, against about 40 for a city on the equator today.

Between solstices the sunset walks 65° 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.

Sunset drifts 105 seconds earlier each day this month — 51 minutes from the first of September to the last.

The clocks go back on 25 October 2026, so the sunset jumps from 17:47 to 16:45 overnight — the sun has not moved, the clock has.

Planning a sunset photo in Podgorica

Arrive by 17:41. Golden hour opens at 17:56 and the sun is down by 18:33, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 269° 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 18:50 and runs to 19:01, the end of civil twilight and 28m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
