The day is 10 hours 23 minutes long in Nicosia, and losing 2 minutes a day. The sun peaks at 11:30 am, 30 minutes before noon on the clock. A UTC offset is a promise that the sun is overhead at midday on one meridian, and Nicosia sits 13 minutes of solar time east of UTC+2:00’s. The rest is the equation of time, which swings about a quarter of an hour either way across the year.
The solar year swings 4 hours 45 minutes in Nicosia: 14 hours 32 minutes of daylight at the June solstice against 9 hours 47 minutes at the December one. Being north of the equator, its longest day falls in June — the opposite way round from the other hemisphere.
