Laredo golden hour & blue hour by season

Golden hour is the warm, low-sun light; blue hour is the cooler twilight that brackets it. These windows come from Laredo’s true solar geometry — the sun’s altitude, not a fixed hour — so they stretch toward the solstices and run longer than the rule-of-thumb hour.

Daylight saving time in Laredo

Laredo springs its clocks forward on Sunday, March 8, 2026 and falls back on Sunday, November 1, 2026. Between those dates the local clock runs an hour later, so sunrise and sunset both read later — though the amount of daylight is unchanged; only the label on the clock moves.

Why sunset time shifts in Laredo

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

In Laredo, the longest day carries about 13h 53m of daylight and the shortest just 10h 24m — a swing of roughly 3h 29m 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 Laredo’s exact coordinates, in local time.
