When Does The Sun Rise And Set In Melbourne?

Stumbled on this nugget while trying to find out what time sunset will take place in Q2.

This page works out the times for sunrise and sunset when you select the month and year you want.

For example, if I select May 2010, I learn that the sun rises between 7.01 and 7.25 (rising later as we progress into winter) and sets between 5.33 and 5.10 (setting later as the month draws to a close, meaning the days get shorter).

It's very handy when you need to make decisions like 'Which are the months to avoid if I send my child to sports activities, given that I can't see well enough to drive once the sun sets?' and 'Should I sign my child up for the 6-7 pm class or the 6.30-7.30 pm class?'

Answer: Avoid Terms 2 and 3.

Next thing to do: Get a pair of glasses with yellow lenses to improve night driving capability.
