Mpophomeni does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Johannesburg all year. How times are calculated
Mpophomeni, the Sun and the clock
Mpophomeni is in KwaZulu-Natal and has about 31,000 people. The nearest larger city is Pietermaritzburg, 21 km to the east-southeast. Mpophomeni 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 11:59 on average. Dhuhr begins just after that moment.
The Sun never stands straight overhead in Mpophomeni: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 84° above the horizon in December and only 37° in June, so noon shadows are much longer in June. Days in Mpophomeni range from 10h 15m in June to 14h 3m in December, a difference of 3h 48m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Mpophomeni is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then. At 1,103 m above sea level, Mpophomeni 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 Mpophomeni 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 Mpophomeni, calculated with the same method.
