Sunrise and Sunset Times in Washington

Sunrise and Sunset in Washington

The 52 Washington cities listed here span 3.2° of latitude, from Camas in the south (45.6°N) to Bellingham in the north (48.8°N). On the June solstice that puts about 16h 10m of daylight over Bellingham against 15h 42m over Camas — a 28m difference inside one state. In December the gap reverses, and the southern cities are the ones holding more light.

The median Washington city swings 7h 30m between the solstices against a national median of 5h 16m, so seasons here move the clock 2h 13m more than they do in a typical American city.

Seasons bite hardest in Bellingham, where daylight swings 7h 54m between the solstices, and least in Camas at 7h 1m. The table above lists both figures for every city, so you can see where any town falls between those two extremes.

Washington sits entirely in Pacific Time. Longitude decides how a city's clock lines up with its Sun: Longview sits furthest west inside its zone, which puts mean solar noon about 12 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.
