Vredefort does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Johannesburg all year. How times are calculated
Vredefort is in Free State and has about 18,000 people. The nearest larger city is Parys, 15 km to the northeast. Vredefort lies 2.6° west of the 30° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 11 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:11, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.
The Sun never stands straight overhead in Vredefort: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 86° above the horizon in December and only 40° in June, so noon shadows are much longer in June. Days in Vredefort range from 10h 26m in June to 13h 51m in December, a difference of 3h 25m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them. As Vredefort is in the southern hemisphere, its longest days come in December and January, and so do its longest fasts whenever Ramadan falls then. At 1,425 m above sea level, Vredefort 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.
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 Vredefort, calculated with the same method.
