Praying in Charlotte
Charlotte's latest Fajr, 6:38 AM, lands on 6 November, the final morning of daylight saving time. The clocks go back the next day, and the dawn prayer shows up earlier by the clock, so the winter mornings that follow are not the latest ones in the table.
Over the full year the fast moves by nearly five hours, from 11h 02m on 20 December to 15h 59m on 18 June. At 35.2 degrees north the summer evening is long without being extreme, with Isha as late as 10:08 PM on 20 June.

Frequently asked questions
Which Asr time does Charlotte's timetable highlight?
Standard Asr, the earlier of the two. Hanafi Asr comes later in the afternoon. The switch on the page changes the highlight, so you can follow whichever you pray by, and your local masjid may publish its own time.
What is the Qibla direction in Charlotte?
54 degrees clockwise from true north, a little east of north-east. A straight line on a flat map would point towards the south-east, but the shortest path to Makkah from the Carolinas runs north-east over the Atlantic.
When does Isha come earliest in Charlotte?
At 6:26 PM on 26 November, twenty-five days before the winter solstice, or about three and a half weeks. From there Isha edges later through December while the days are still at their shortest.
How early is Fajr in a Charlotte summer?
Earliest on 10 June, at 4:42 AM, eleven days before the solstice. That is nearly two hours before the latest Fajr of the year, so the morning timetable shifts a lot between June and autumn.
