About the sun in Selby

In Selby, the longest day of 2026 is 21 June, with 17h 06m of daylight, and the shortest is 21 December, with 7h 25m: a difference of 9 hours 41 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on 17 June (04:33) and the latest sunset on 24 June (21:39). 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. Selby lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 59.7° above the horizon, on 21 June. Around midsummer, from 13 May to 31 July, the sun never sinks 18° below the horizon, so the night sky never gets fully dark.
