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

Tongaat, the Sun and the clock

Tongaat is in KwaZulu-Natal and has about 65,000 people. The nearest larger city is KwaDukuza, 32 km to the north-northeast. Tongaat 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 11:56 on average. Dhuhr begins just after that moment.

The Sun never stands straight overhead in Tongaat: 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 Tongaat 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 Tongaat 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 Tongaat 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 Tongaat, calculated with the same method.
