At what time does the sun rise in the winter?

Question

I am trying to get my puppy on a walking schedule and wanted to know if it would be dark around 5 AM in September, October, November and December. Also, I am in the Central time zone. (Tennessee)

Answer 1

At the equinox (Sept 21) the sun will rise reasonably close to 6 AM, the exact time depending on where you are in the time zone. After that it will rise later and later.

So at 5 AM it might start out being just a smidge light, but by December it will be plenty dark.

Give it a lookup at the link below.  It varies with longitude, latitude, and day of the year.

Answer 3
