FAQ

What time are sunrise and sunset in Aird today?

In Aird today, sunrise is at 04:49 with sunset at 22:00. These times move through the year in line with seasonal changes in solar elevation.

How many hours of daylight are there in Aird today?

Look at the Day Length line in the Sunrise & Sunset panel for Aird. It updates daily and summarises the change in usable daylight across the year.

Why do sunrise and sunset times change in Aird?

The times move through the year because Earth’s tilt changes solar elevation and the length of daylight as the seasons progress.

Does daylight saving time affect sunrise and sunset clocks in Aird?

Yes. Clock times can jump when the UK changes between GMT and BST, even though the underlying solar cycle only shifts gradually day to day.

What does ‘solar noon’ mean for Aird?

It’s when the sun is highest in the sky at your location. It often differs from 12:00 because clock time is standardised across a time zone and can be shifted by daylight saving.
