About sunrise in Mississippi
The sun reaches Columbus 11 minutes before Greenville 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. Mississippi keeps a single time zone, so the clock times below are directly comparable.
