About the sun in Vazhapadi
In Vazhapadi, the longest day of 2026 is 21 June, with 12h 49m of daylight, and the shortest is 22 December, with 11h 27m: a difference of 1 hour 22 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on 31 May (5:51 AM) and the latest sunset on 11 July (6:45 PM). These dates do not fall on the solstice because Earth's orbit is elliptical and its axis is tilted, so solar noon drifts through the year. Vazhapadi lies between the tropics, so the sun is directly overhead at solar noon twice a year: on 20 April and 22 August.
