24h timelapse view from Stockholm, Sweden on June 20 - June 21 2020. ------------------------ Solstice d'été vu depuis Stockholm; timelapse de 24h pris entre le 20 Juin et le 21 Juin 2020. Equipment: GoPro Hero6, 60 sec interval
I study in northeastern Sweden at the moment, and I once took a walk at the campus during the summer almost at midnight, and at that time the sky was _still_ light blue, lol. The sun had barely reached the horizon at that point, and this blew my mind, even though I live in central Sweden and experience somewhat similar summers every year (although not quite THAT bright).
In Tokyo, the earliest sunrise is at 04:30, the latest sunset is at 19:00. On the contrary, the latest sunset is at 07:00, the earliest sunset is at 16:30.
Stockholm's latitude is about 59.3°N. So, the sun will effectively take a circular path in the sky that's at a (90 - 59.3 =) 30.7° angle with respect to the horizon. At the summer solstice, the sun's path shifts up northward in the sky (by ~23.4° northward from equinox), and at the winter solstice the path shifts down southward in the sky (by ~23.4° southward from equinox). Because the sun takes a pretty shallow angle, it doesn't get far below horizon on nights around summer solstice, and it doesn't get far above horizon on days around winter solstice. As you move toward the poles, the sun's ascent angle at sunrise (and descent angle at sunset) gets shallower. In Stockholm, that angle is 30.7°. At 45°N, it's 45°. At 10°N, it's 80°. I think you can guess what it'll be at the equator. The sun shifts up and down in the sky by the same amount at the equator in June and December, so why do their days remain about 12 hrs thru the year? The sun's path is perpendicular to the horizon at the equator, so half its path will always be above the horizon (and half below) no matter how far northward or southward the path shifts. This shifting path is called declination, ranging from 23.4°N to 23.4°S. But don't confuse it for the angle the sun's path takes with respect to horizon: that will be constant and is simply equal to 90° minus your latitude. I live around 39°N, so for me the sun will take a 51° circular path with respect to horizon. If you watch sunrise/sunset timelapse videos, if the sun is rising/setting almost vertically, you'll know it's a low latitude. If it's moving pretty diagonally (like it does for me), you'll know it's a mid latitude. And if it's ascending/descending more parallel to the horizon (Stockholm is approaching that kind of path), you'll know it's a high latitude.
It depends in which time of the year. In poland in winter sunrise is at 8am and sunset is at 3:30pm, but in summer sunrise is at 4:15am and sunset at 9:15pm
Where I Live: June 21st Sunrise: 4:43am Sunset: 10:21pm Dawn: 3:42am Dusk: 11:22pm Solar Noon: 1:32pm Golden Hour End: 5:44am Golden Hour Start: 9:20pm Predawn: 2:41am Exdusk: 0:23am
holy fuck a 9am sunrise and 4pm sunset? i mean thats great for me since i can get up when i do on the weekends and see the sun rising, but a 4pm sunset is just painful lol
Shine On you Crazy Diamond No it’s not dark it’s medium out. When the sun is 7 degrees below the horizon, it’s definitely medium out when it’s clear and easy enough to see normally outdoors without artificial lighting, or maybe slightly dark when cloudy. Actually dark is 12 degrees below the horizon when clear and it’s decently dark out at around 10 degrees below the horizon. I know this by watching the twilight phases and also because it just makes sense that it’s not actually dark until Nautical Dusk.
Here in The Netherlands we have a summer solstice from 5:00 AM till 10:00 PM. But this is still impressive, I want to see it in Iceland or the top of Sweden/Norway..
i get 5:30 to 8:45 (20:45) and tbh same. like i have a whole makeawish thign setup to do a trip to alaska but its gonna be in winter (bc northern lights are awesome) but maybe at another point in my life im gonna go do it in the summer too
Swedish winters basically get darker and darker until around Christmas time, and then slowly get brighter and brighter throughout spring (which is typically when the snow starts to melt away) and until high summer. A typical Swedish midwinter has sunrise at around 8-9 AM, and then sunset at around 3-4 PM. However, the most northern parts of Sweden actually have times when it NEVER rises, like for example in Karesuando, where you don't see the sun at all during most of December and for some time in January.
