About the sun in Mooresville
In Mooresville, the longest day of 2026 is June 21, with 14h 34m of daylight, and the shortest is December 21, with 9h 45m: a difference of 4 hours 49 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on June 12 (6:07 AM) and the latest sunset on June 28 (8:43 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. Mooresville lies outside the tropics, so the sun is never directly overhead. Its highest point is 77.9° above the horizon, on June 21.
