Plan the month or the year
After you calculate a day, the Open monthly calendar link carries Newark and the date to the monthly calendar, where you can print the table or download it as CSV. For the whole of Newark’s year at a glance, including its longest and shortest day, use the annual sunrise and sunset table.
Check the context
The visible horizon and weather affect what you see. Tall buildings, hills and a high floor around Newark all move the moment the Sun actually appears or disappears relative to the flat-horizon times shown here.
What makes Newark’s daylight different
Newark sits at 40.7° N, so its northern-hemisphere seasons give it a longest day of 15h 06m on 21 June and a shortest day of 9h 15m on 21 December in 2026. The earliest sunrise (05:25 AM on 12 June) and the latest sunset (08:32 PM on 25 June) do not fall on the solstice itself, because solar noon drifts against the clock through the year.
