About the sun in Kamloops
In Kamloops, the longest day of 2026 is June 21, with 16h 29m of daylight, and the shortest is December 21, with 7h 58m: a difference of 8 hours 31 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on June 16 (4:48 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. Kamloops lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 62.8° above the horizon, on June 21. Around midsummer, from May 28 to July 15, the sun never sinks 18° below the horizon, so the night sky never gets fully dark.
