Fun Alaskan Fact

We are currently in our annual period of 36 days in which we receive 24 hours of civil twilight per day. Civil twilight is defined to begin in the morning, and to end in the evening when the center of the Sun is geometrically 6 degrees below the horizon. It began a June 3 and doesn't end until July 9.

On summer solstice (Thursday, June 21) in the May-Su Valley, sunrise is at 3:01 a.m. AKDT and sunset is at 11:48 p.m. AKDT. A total of 19 hours and 47 minutes of daylight.

Just something cool I found and didn’t even know myself so wanted to share 😊

Side note: The further north you go, the more light. @alaskatactical and I are originally from the Fairbanks area. Check the map to see how many days we would have if we were still up there. It can and does get 90°F up there.
