Ramadan timetable for ShafterShafter, the Sun and the clock
Shafter is in California and has about 18,000 people. The nearest larger city is Bakersfield, 27 km to the east-southeast. Shafter lies almost on the 120° W meridian that its time zone is based on, so the Sun is highest close to 12:00 on the clock, around 11:57 on average. Dhuhr begins just after that moment. In summer, when the clocks go forward an hour, that moment moves to around 12:57.
The Sun never stands straight overhead in Shafter: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 78° above the horizon in June and only 31° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Shafter range from 9h 45m in December to 14h 34m in June, a difference of 4h 49m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.
