Ga-Rankuwa does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Johannesburg all year. How times are calculated
Ga-Rankuwa, the Sun and the clock
Ga-Rankuwa is in North West and has about 91,000 people. The nearest larger city is Soshanguve, 19 km to the north-northeast. Ga-Rankuwa lies 2° west of the 30° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 8 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:08, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.
The Sun never stands straight overhead in Ga-Rankuwa: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 88° above the horizon in December and only 41° in June, so noon shadows are much longer in June. Days in Ga-Rankuwa range from 10h 32m in June to 13h 44m in December, a difference of 3h 12m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Ga-Rankuwa is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then. At 1,246 m above sea level, Ga-Rankuwa 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 Ga-Rankuwa compared with nearby cities
