Why sunset time shifts in Barnes Lake

Sunset drifts through the year with Earth’s ~23.4° axial tilt — see the full daylight explainer.

In Barnes Lake, the longest day carries about 15h 23m of daylight and the shortest just 8h 59m — a swing of roughly 6h 24m 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 Barnes Lake’s exact coordinates, in local time.
