Pedestrians and cyclists, be aware of where the sun is!

Pedestrians and cyclists, be aware of where the sun is!  Drivers may not be able to see you - especially in the first and last hour or so of daylight.

Daylight Saving Time Ends

Drivers beware. After the time change this weekend the sun's location will shift and glare may affect you differently on your daily commute.

November 2010 Sunrise/Sunset Tables

Sample sunrise/sunset tables for select cities in Canada, the US, the Middle East and Haiti have been posted for November 2010. The tables include the times of rise and set as well as the time of solar noon and the total number of daylight hours for each day of the month.

If your location is not one of the samples, contact us for a free table for your location for this month.

Visit http://www.sunposition.com/tables.html to view our samples or to order your specific table.

If you prefer, our tables can be prepared showing the sun's direction at rise and set (instead of the time of solar noon and the total number of daylight hours).

Cheers, Ralph
