Sunrise and Sunset Times in Ohio

Sunrise and Sunset in Ohio

The 63 Ohio cities listed here span 2.5° of latitude, from Cincinnati in the south (39.1°N) to Mentor in the north (41.7°N). On the June solstice that puts about 15h 12m of daylight over Mentor against 14h 55m over Cincinnati — a 17m difference inside one state. In December the gap reverses, and the southern cities are the ones holding more light.

The median Ohio city swings 5h 52m between the solstices against a national median of 5h 16m, so seasons here move the clock 36m more than they do in a typical American city.

Seasons bite hardest in Mentor, where daylight swings 6h 3m between the solstices, and least in Cincinnati at 5h 31m. The table above lists both figures for every city, so you can see where any town falls between those two extremes.

Ohio sits entirely in Eastern Time. Longitude decides how a city's clock lines up with its Sun: Hamilton sits furthest west inside its zone, which puts mean solar noon about 38 minutes after clock noon and gives it the state's latest-running evenings for its longitude.

Each city page carries that city's full profile: today's sunrise and sunset on a live tracker, a twelve-month table of times, the dates of the year's earliest and latest sunsets, the Sun's midday height by season, a golden-hour calendar, clear-sky solar-energy figures, and where the city ranks against the rest of the country.
