About the sun in Lockport

In Lockport, the longest day of 2026 is June 21, with 15h 23m of daylight, and the shortest is December 21, with 8h 59m: a difference of 6 hours 24 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on June 15 (5:34 AM) and the latest sunset on June 26 (8:59 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. Lockport lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 70.3° above the horizon, on June 21.
