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

Harrismith, the Sun and the clock

Harrismith is in Free State and has about 33,000 people. The nearest larger city is Phuthaditjhaba, 42 km to the southwest. Harrismith lies almost on the 30° E meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest close to 12:00 on the clock, around 12:03 on average. Dhuhr begins just after that moment.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Harrismith: 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 Harrismith range from 10h 21m in June to 13h 56m in December, a difference of 3h 35m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Harrismith is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then. At 1,643 m above sea level, Harrismith 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 Harrismith 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 Harrismith, calculated with the same method.
