Daylight over the year
Estimated daylight (sunrise-to-sunset) duration in Härnösand along the year.
The longest daylight at latitude 62.63° N is about 20h 06m around the summer solstice in June, while the shortest is about 4h 53m around the winter solstice in December.

About latitude comparisons
When comparing cities at the same latitude, such as Härnösand and its global counterparts, it is important to remember that while they share identical daylight hours and similar solar angles throughout the year, their climates may differ drastically. Factors including elevation, proximity to oceans, and dominant wind patterns shape the local environment just as much as solar positioning.
The results shown here are cities located within ±0.5 degrees of Härnösand's parallel (62.63°), which covers roughly 55 kilometers (34 miles) north or south of its exact coordinate.
Frequently asked questions
What is the longitude of Härnösand?
Härnösand is located at longitude 17.9379° E. Among cities within ±0.5° of the same meridian, Cape Town (South Africa), at 18.4232° E in the Southern Hemisphere.
How close are these cities to Härnösand’s latitude?
Each listed city has a stored latitude between 62.13° and 63.13°, the ±0.5° matching band around Härnösand.
Does this map show exact city boundaries?
No. Map markers and latitude values use city reference coordinates. They help compare locations on a parallel, but do not represent municipal boundaries.
Do these cities share the same climate?
Not necessarily. Latitude is only one influence on climate; altitude, coastlines, ocean currents and local terrain also matter.
