Hours of Daylight Table

 When can we see without headlamps?
The table below provides approximate times of sunrise and sunset for Seattle. The DH column represents daylight hours in hours and minutes. CT adds Civil Twilight, which includes the time when the sun is 6 degrees or less below the horizon, time during which one can often see without the aid of artificial illumination, given favorable conditions. Colored rows indicate Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Fall Equinox, and Winter Solstice respectively.
