About the sun in Abbotsford
In Abbotsford, the longest day of 2026 is June 20, with 16h 13m of daylight, and the shortest is December 21, with 8h 13m: a difference of 8 hours. The earliest sunrise of the year is on June 16 (5:04 a.m.) and the latest sunset on June 25 (9:18 p.m.). 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. Abbotsford lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 64.4° above the horizon, on June 21. Around midsummer, from June 10 to July 3, the sun never sinks 18° below the horizon, so the night sky never gets fully dark.
