About the sun in Mansfield City
In Mansfield City, the longest day of 2026 is June 21, with 15h 13m of daylight, and the shortest is December 21, with 9h 08m: a difference of 6 hours 4 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on June 14 (5:14 AM) and the latest sunset on June 27 (8:28 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.
