Sunrise runs on its own schedule: earliest on 9 November at 05:57, latest on 21 July at 06:29, 30 days after the June solstice. The four dates in the table below do not line up with the solstices, and they are not supposed to. Earth's orbit is slightly elliptical and its axis is tilted, so the sun runs a few minutes fast or slow against clock time through the year. That offset, the equation of time, is what pushes the earliest sunset ahead of the shortest day and the latest sunrise behind it.

|---|---|---|---|
| Earliest sunrise | 9 Nov 2026 | 05:57 | 42 days before the December solstice |
| Latest sunrise | 21 Jul 2026 | 06:29 | 30 days after the June solstice |
