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

Bhisho, the Sun and the clock

Bhisho is the main city of Eastern Cape, home to about 140,000 people. The nearest larger city is East London, 48 km to the east-southeast. Bhisho lies 2.6° west of the 30° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 10 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:10, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Bhisho: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 81° above the horizon in December and only 34° in June, so noon shadows are much longer in June. Days in Bhisho range from 9h 59m in June to 14h 19m in December, a difference of 4h 20m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Bhisho is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then.

Maghrib time Bhisho 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 Bhisho, calculated with the same method.
