About the sun in Parafield Gardens
In Parafield Gardens, the longest day of 2026 is 22 December, with 14h 30m of daylight, and the shortest is 21 June, with 9h 49m: a difference of 4 hours 41 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on 3 October (5:50 AM) and the latest sunset on 6 January (8:33 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.
