About the sun in Jonesboro

In Jonesboro, the longest day of 2026 is June 21, with 14h 36m of daylight, and the shortest is December 21, with 9h 44m: a difference of 4 hours 52 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on June 13 (5:46 AM) and the latest sunset on June 28 (8:23 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.
