Aliwal North does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Johannesburg all year. How times are calculated

Aliwal North, the Sun and the clock

Aliwal North is in Eastern Cape and has about 44,000 people. Aliwal North lies 3.3° west of the 30° 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.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Aliwal North: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 83° above the horizon in December and only 36° in June, so noon shadows are much longer in June. Days in Aliwal North range from 10h 9m in June to 14h 8m in December, a difference of 3h 59m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Aliwal North is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then. At 1,325 m above sea level, Aliwal North 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 Aliwal North 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 Aliwal North, calculated with the same method.
