Praying in Albany
Isha in Albany starts earliest, at 5:46 PM, on 30 November, exactly three weeks before the winter solstice on 21 December. The shortest fast, 10h 27m, does land on the solstice itself, so the low point of the night prayer and the low point of the fast are three weeks apart.
In summer three records arrive in quick order, all before the solstice on 21 June: Fajr at its earliest, 3:30 AM, on 15 June, the longest fast, 17h 06m, on 18 June, and Isha at its latest, 10:23 PM, on 19 June.

Frequently asked questions
How does the length of the fast change through Ramadan in Albany?
Expected from around 8 February to 8 March, Ramadan starts with an 11h 35m fast and ends with 12h 51m. Days are lengthening through late winter, so each fast is a little longer than the last, adding more than an hour over the month.
When do the clocks change in Albany in 2027?
Forward on 14 March and back on 7 November. The autumn change comes the day after Fajr's latest time of the year, 6:15 AM on 6 November, so the morning prayer is at its latest on the clock just before it moves an hour earlier.
How much does Isha swing across the year in Albany?
From 5:46 PM at its earliest to 10:23 PM at its latest, more than four and a half hours. The late high comes two days before the June solstice, so it does not wait for the longest day.
Is Albany's shortest fast on the winter solstice?
Yes. At 10h 27m, 21 December is both the shortest fast of the year and the solstice. Isha, by contrast, turned back toward later times three weeks earlier, on 30 November.
