Salem, the Sun and the clock

Salem is in Tamil Nadu and has about 920,000 people. Salem lies 4.3° west of the 82.5° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 17 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:17, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.

Salem lies within the tropics. Around 21 April and 23 August the Sun passes straight overhead at Dhuhr, and upright objects cast almost no shadow at noon. Days in Salem range from 11h 26m in December to 12h 48m in June, a difference of 1h 22m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.
