Ramadan timetable for Council BluffsCouncil Bluffs, the Sun and the clock
Council Bluffs is in Iowa and has about 63,000 people. The nearest larger city is Omaha, 7 km to the west. Council Bluffs lies 5.9° west of the 90° W meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 23 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:23, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests. In summer, when the clocks go forward an hour, that moment moves to around 13:23.
The Sun never stands straight overhead in Council Bluffs: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 72° above the horizon in June and only 25° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Council Bluffs range from 9h 12m in December to 15h 9m in June, a difference of 5h 57m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.
