Sunrise Across United States

Among the bundled cities in United States, today’s sunrise is 7:07 am in Boston and 9:06 am in Anchorage. The city pages calculate the event from each set of coordinates rather than assigning one national time.

United States currently has 6 distinct civil UTC offsets in the bundled locations. The two solar events are 358 minutes apart in absolute time, while their printed clock labels also reflect those civil offsets.

Terrain and a blocked local horizon are not represented in these astronomical figures. The calculation notes describe that limitation.

Questions People Ask

Is there one sunrise time for all of United States?

No. The event is calculated for a point on Earth, so select the city whose coordinates match the place you need.

Why is the displayed sunrise time different between cities in United States?

The cities differ in position and may also use different civil-clock offsets. Both affect the time printed on the clock.
