Warangal gets 11h 57m of daylight today, from sunrise to sunset. Tomorrow will be 1 minute shorter. Over the next seven days Warangal loses 6 minutes 59 seconds of daylight.
That pace is not constant. In Warangal the day length changes fastest around March, near the equinox, when it moves by about 1 minute 2 seconds per day, and it slows almost to a stop at the solstices in June and December. The word solstice means exactly that: the sun standing still.
When are the earliest and latest sunrise and sunset in Warangal?
The earliest sunset of 2026 in Warangal falls on 24 November at 17:34, 27 days before the December solstice, and the latest on 6 July at 18:51.
Sunrise runs on its own schedule: earliest on 5 June at 05:35, latest on 19 January at 06:46, 29 days after the December 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.
| Extreme | Date | Local time | Why then |
|---|---|---|---|
| Earliest sunrise | 5 Jun 2026 | 05:35 | 16 days before the June solstice |
| Latest sunrise | 19 Jan 2026 | 06:46 | 29 days after the December solstice |
| Earliest sunset | 24 Nov 2026 | 17:34 | 27 days before the December solstice |
| Latest sunset | 6 Jul 2026 | 18:51 | 15 days after the June solstice |
How long does twilight last in Warangal?
First light in Warangal arrives 22 minutes before sunrise today, at 05:40. After sunset the light hangs on for another 22 minutes, until 18:21. That evening stretch is not the same all year in Warangal: it runs from 22 minutes at its shortest, in September, to 24 minutes at its longest, in June. The lower the angle at which the sun crosses the horizon, the longer twilight lasts, which is why dusk is a slow affair at high latitudes and abrupt near the equator.
How high does the sun get in Warangal?
At midday on the June solstice the sun stands 84.6 degrees above the horizon in Warangal. On the December solstice it climbs only 48.6 degrees. The midday sun stays high enough all year that noon shadows in Warangal are always shorter than the object casting them, about 0.88 times their height at the lowest point of the year.
Twice a year, on 11 May and 1 August, the midday sun over Warangal comes within half a degree of straight overhead, reaching 89.99 degrees at its highest. On those days an upright post casts almost no shadow at solar noon, which is why they are sometimes called zero shadow days. It can only happen between the tropics, where the sun passes directly over a place at all.
