About sunrise in Louisiana
The sun reaches Slidell 16 minutes before Shreveport today — that gap is longitude, and it is fixed: the Earth turns fifteen degrees an hour, so every degree of longitude is four minutes of sunrise. Louisiana keeps a single time zone, so the clock times below are directly comparable.
