Neat. One of my favourite sites, which also shows daylight, is WeatherSpark[0], obviously focused on weather and it allows you to compare locations based on yearly rainfall, cloud cover, muggy conditions, all sorts of stuff. Always check it when going on vacation or relocating.
I love it. It'd be nice if I could click points on a map and see the difference to my local one as well. Or in the calendar view if it'd show a copy of the clock (i.e. coloring not current hand positions) for the time I'm hovered over.
I've been wanting to build this exact clock for awhile now. My feature request would be to include a timeline at the bottom of the page that I can scroll back and forth through days of the year to see everything shift.
It must be clock-making time... I built a 24-hour clock a few days ago but in base-12 and with 72 seconds per minute (to reuse the outer 24-hour dial, with 3 subdivisions to make it closer to the normal second)
I have this hard-coded to south dakota, but it looks like this and I made it a while ago. Same idea, except I turn it such that "solar noon" is at the top.
Think 12 noon is really "high noon" or solar noon? Nope, not unless you are in the center of a timezone!
The objective time of "local noon" also varies due to the Earth's orbit not being a perfect circle, and the Earth's axis being tilted with respect to the plane of its orbit. The variance is described by the equation of time:
Or one of those places that ignores its assigned time zone.
There are places in the western U.S. where entire towns operate on their own time, and the only place you'll find a "correct" clock is in the Post Office. Not even in City Hall.
Nice. I've been making a version of this that I submitted to ycombinator, testing the thesis "If we schedule our life around the sun including afternoon naps" we perform better.
Check it out and give me feedback. It has a long ways to go.
Also made something like this called Sun Path which tracks where the sun is through centuries and how the path deviates ever so slowly.
Plus there are all the equinoxes and solstices.

Dragging the globe around isn't working on touch; it feels like it's missing touch-action: none
Thanks for the note. I just fixed it.

Neat! I made something similar to better visualize timezones based off the day/night cycle:

https://editor.p5js.org/rhemalinder/full/im3tyPBDW - I made this one for myself and it's pretty similar.

… and you do not live with daylight saving time.

Let me choose location manually.
I wish my browser let me do this by default. Rather than "let this site know your location?" it should be "select a location to give to this site".
(I'm sure there are extensions and/or developer options that do this, but it's the default I want)
You can set latitude and longitude after opening settings with the gear icon.
you can use my version sunsignal.app and enter a zip code.
It'd be neat if you could pan a slider through the year to see the sunrise sunset times change
I would prefer if it showed a regular 12 hours clock face and show the upcoming sunrise or sunset, or two faces one for each.
This is neat! Would love the ability to make "true noon" be at the top of the clock, instead of 12.

nice one
Man fuck Apple for not allowing custom Apple Watch faces >:(
Always the crippled operating system limiting the potential of their amazing hardware
The “Solar Dial” face does pretty much what the site does.
This is already my default watch face on Apple Watch
