Jos does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Lagos all year. How times are calculated
Jos, the Sun and the clock
Jos is the main city of Plateau State, home to about 1,000,000 people. Jos lies 6.1° west of the 15° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 24 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:24, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.
Jos lies within the tropics. Around 16 April and 28 August the Sun passes straight overhead at Dhuhr, and upright objects cast almost no shadow at noon. Days in Jos range from 11h 33m in December to 12h 42m in June, a difference of 1h 9m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. At 1,186 m above sea level, Jos sits on high ground. Times are calculated for a level horizon; from a hilltop or a tall building sunrise can come a little earlier and sunset a little later than listed, while mountains to the east or west do the opposite.
Maghrib time Jos compared with nearby cities
Prayer times shift with longitude: about 4 minutes for every degree east or west. Here is how today's Fajr and Maghrib in nearby places compare with Jos, calculated with the same method.
