Daylight Hours

We are now into our long daylight season. Today our sunrise was at 5:23 AM PDT, and our sunset will be 10:31 PM PDT. That means our solar noon is somewhere around 2 PM. This is because we are too far west to be in the Pacific time zone, and because of daylight savings time. So our sunset is really two hours later than it should be.

Here's a photo I took from my front porch tonight at 10:15PM, just so you can see how light it is.
