Praying in Rochester
Rochester's fast changes by just over seven hours across the year, from 10h 21m on 17 December to 17h 22m on 18 June. That is a wide range, and it comes from sitting at 44 degrees north, where summer days stretch late into the evening and begin early in the morning.
Fajr is earliest at 3:34 AM on 17 June, four days before the solstice, and Isha is latest on the solstice itself, 21 June, at 10:49 PM. The two records sit within four days of each other. Isha is earliest at 5:58 PM on 4 December.
