How the times are computed
Each city’s sunrise and sunset are computed live from astronomy-engine using the city’s latitude and longitude, then converted to the city’s IANA time zone. Day length is the interval between sunrise and sunset; in summer it grows roughly two minutes per day at temperate latitudes and shrinks at the same rate in autumn.
