Sun rise and sun set times

Post by rjbrouk »

Hi Steve,

I had a friend over and was showing him Cumulus when he pointed out something I never took notice to. On the sun rise and set times he pointed out that the times were wrong. Here is example: Sunrise 20:30 Dawn 20:02, Sunset 7:55 and Dusk 8:23. I was always for the most part look at the sunset times and I guess just figured they where not set to military time since I run the other besides that.

Awesome! Thank you very much for the help. I was off just a little and made a big difference. Hard to find a precise Long and Lat finder!
