Arcot, the Sun and the clock

Arcot is in Tamil Nadu and has about 56,000 people. The nearest larger city is Rānipet, 3 km to the northeast. Arcot lies 3.2° west of the 82.5° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 13 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:13, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.

Arcot lies within the tropics. Around 25 April and 19 August the Sun passes straight overhead at Dhuhr, and upright objects cast almost no shadow at noon. Days in Arcot range from 11h 22m in December to 12h 53m in June, a difference of 1h 31m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.

Maghrib time Arcot compared with nearby cities
