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

Eshowe, the Sun and the clock

Eshowe is in KwaZulu-Natal and has about 18,000 people. The nearest larger city is KwaDukuza, 52 km to the south-southwest. Eshowe lies 1.5° east of the 30° E meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest about 6 minutes before 12:00 on average, around 11:54, and Dhuhr comes earlier than the clock suggests.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Eshowe: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 85° above the horizon in December and only 38° in June, so noon shadows are much longer in June. Days in Eshowe range from 10h 18m in June to 13h 59m in December, a difference of 3h 41m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Eshowe 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 Eshowe 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 Eshowe, calculated with the same method.
