Because of how far north you are, I suspect :)

I guess your daylight should actually be 24 hours now? I'll investigate.

Edit: Actually you don't have 24 hours daylight, the problem is that your daylight crosses midnight. I'll see if I can fix it.

Dawn is the start of twilight and dusk is the end of twilight. You now have 24 hours of "daylight", you never leave twilight, so you have no dawn or dusk.

Where does Cumulus get info for xx hours of sunlight today's. It's not displayed in my homepage.
Example:
Some pages say 'there will be 2 minutes 21 seconds less daylight tomorrow'
How do I add that?
