Thanks for checking. This is odd because I'm now looking at my site on a computer rarely used for web stuff and the offset is still present. That's 4 different computers where it's tilted to the left.

I don't mean the time marker. I'm talking about the black area showing astronomical darkness which is definitely not right. It's tilted to the left on all my PCs.

Here's what I'm seeing at 11:40 local time.

SOLVED IT!!! :D

Looking at my lat / lon I had 2.2 for my longitude. It should be -2.2 as I'm west of Greenwich. Corrected and it's now showing correctly. :D

There is still a very small offset. I suspect this is because local noon is 11:52 and not 12:00.
