Today's Hours by Planet in Konya
Planetary Hours in Konya Through 2026
At 37.9° N, the seasons reshape the hours: a daytime hour in Konya lasts 48 minutes around Dec 21 and 74 around Jun 21, while the night hours move the opposite way.
Konya lies west of the meridian its clocks follow (UTC+3), so the Sun, and with it the first planetary hour, runs about 50 minutes behind the clock: noon by the Sun comes near 12:50 PM standard time.
The shortest day is not the darkest at both ends: Konya's earliest sunset comes 16 days before it, on Dec 5, and its latest sunrise 11 days after it, on Jan 1, because solar noon drifts through the year.

| Sunrise (first hour) | 5:27 AM, Jun 6 | 8:05 AM, Jan 1 |
