Daylight in Catalina Foothills right now
Catalina Foothills sits at 32.30° north, so its day length swings by 4h 14m across the year — from 10h 01m at the December solstice to 14h 16m at the June solstice. Today the city gets 12h 08m of daylight and the day is 1m 58s shorter than yesterday.
Day and night reach almost exactly twelve hours each on Saturday, September 26, 2026 — the next equilux. That is not the equinox, and the gap is not an error: sunrise and sunset are measured at the sun’s upper edge rather than its centre, and atmospheric refraction lifts the disc into view before it has geometrically risen. The further from the equator, the larger the gap.
Solar noon — when the sun is highest, not when the clock reads twelve — comes at 12:16 PM. The difference is the combined effect of the city’s longitude within its time zone and the equation of time, which is currently 7.4 minutes.
