Last 8 PM Sunset In Baltimore For This Year: More Key Sun Times And NASA Video Simulation On Other Worlds

Season

Tuesday August 16 2022

Today marks a date on the calendar specific to Baltimore with respect to the sun, and I wanted to highlight a few additional key dates coming up.

This evening the sun will set at 8 PM, the last time in that hour for the rest of the year.  This has always been a time for me that signals summer is coming to an end, and fall is fast approaching. This is will become more noticeable as we lose 2 minutes and 15 seconds of daylight today, and that accelerates each day through next month. 

Below is a chart of the sunrise, sunset, and day length times through September, plus a few dates that jump out.

Also for fun, I’ve included videos from NASA of the sunset and sunrise as would be viewed on different worlds in our solar system. It’s pretty cool.

Note: The numbers here are for Baltimore, as a central reference point in our region. You can always find them in the Current Conditions Tab on the right and click the Sun Window for more info.

 

For reference, today’s sunset times across the region:

Ocean City =7:52 PM (8 minutes earlier)

McHenry/Deep Creek = 8:11 PM (11 minutes later)

*Yes, the sunset times are 19 minutes apart across Maryland.

 

August 16

  • Day Length = 13 hours, 40 minutes, and 03 seconds.

 

On August 30

  • Sunset will be at 7:38 PM
  • That daily loss of sunlight will be 2 minutes and 26 seconds from the day before.
  • Day length will have shortened to 13 hours, 04 minutes, and 30 seconds. That is more than 35 minutes shorter than today.

 

September 22 is the Autumnal Equinox

  • Sunset will be at 7:03 PM
  • That daily loss of sunlight will be 2 minutes and 32 seconds from the day before.

Looking Ahead

  • Daylight Saving Time Ends November 6 at 2 AM

 

CORRECTION/UPDATE

The Sunshine Protection Act written by Senator Marco Rubio passed the Senate but has been stuck in the House of Representatives with no progress since March. This is the attempt to abolish the changing of the clocks, which would go into effect in 2023.

  • Sunset will be at 4:59 PM
  • That daily loss of sunlight will be 2 minutes and 09 seconds from the day before.

  • Shortest Daylight Of The Year

  • Sunset will be at 4:46 PM
  • Day length will have shortened to 9 hours, 24 minutes. That is more than 4 hours and 16 minutes shorter than today.

NOTICE: Maryland Trek 9 was a HUGE Success!

The team, support crew, and YOU!

Thank you! We have raised OVER $112,000  (so far). We still have more to add in, and will continue to accept donations into our final total until Sunday.

You may notice a video player at the top of this page.  I put all of our individual daily recap reels in there, just in case you wanted to see them.  One final recap will be ready shortly.

 

 

*Disclaimer due to frequent questions:

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here you may have missed it:

I have dyslexia, and found out at my second year at Cornell.  It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree, and being first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. 

I do miss mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. 

All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. 

There is no editor that can check my work when I need it and have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. 

I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me…

It’s part of my charm.
