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

Ladysmith, the Sun and the clock

Ladysmith is in KwaZulu-Natal and has about 140,000 people. Ladysmith 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 12:01 on average. Dhuhr begins just after that moment.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Ladysmith: 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 Ladysmith range from 10h 19m in June to 13h 58m in December, a difference of 3h 39m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Ladysmith is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then. At 1,010 m above sea level, Ladysmith 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 Ladysmith 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 Ladysmith, calculated with the same method.
