Why sunset time shifts in Wiley
Sunset drifts through the year with Earth’s ~23.4° axial tilt — see the full daylight explainer.
In Wiley, the longest day carries about 14h 49m of daylight and the shortest just 9h 30m — a swing of roughly 5h 19m between the June and December solstices. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider that gap; the pace also isn’t steady, moving fastest near the equinoxes and barely at all near the solstices. Every figure here is computed from the sun’s position for Wiley’s exact coordinates, in local time.
