The day is 9 hours 54 minutes long in Rome, and losing 2 minutes a day. The sun peaks within a few minutes of twelve o’clock, so Italy’s offset fits its longitude about as closely as a whole-hour offset can.
The solar year swings 6 hours 6 minutes in Rome: 15 hours 14 minutes of daylight at the June solstice against 9 hours 7 minutes at the December one. Being north of the equator, its longest day falls in June — the opposite way round from the other hemisphere.
