Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 17:55 on 25 November; the latest is 19:19 on 5 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 05:56 on 5 June to 07:13 on 17 January.

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

What makes sunsets in Ecatepec de Morelos different

On standard time the sun peaks at 12:27, 28 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 22 minutes of usable light before civil twilight ends — almost exactly the 24-minute median across the cities tracked here.

Between solstices the sunset walks 50° 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 54 seconds earlier each day this month — 26 minutes from the first of September to the last.

Being inside the tropics means two zenith passages a year, 18 May and 25 July, when the sun is straight up at solar noon rather than merely high.

At 2,306 m the horizon sits 1.66° lower than at sea level, so the sun sets about 7.1 minutes later here than the standard tables suggest — roughly 14.1 minutes of extra daylight across the day.

Planning a sunset photo in Ecatepec de Morelos

Arrive by 17:45. Golden hour opens at 18:00 and the sun is down by 18:29, 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 18:43 and runs to 18:51, the end of civil twilight and 21m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
