The Northern Sky

One thing I have forgotten to mention is that since my arrival in Bangalore, I have consistently seen the sun in the northern sky. From April 27 through August 16, the sun rises in the northeast and sets in the northwest, being due north at solar noon. While this may not be earth shaking, it may be of interest to those situated at or further north than the Tropic of Cancer who never have an opportunity of seeing the sun in the northern sky for the entire day. From August 16 onwards, the sun will rise and set in the northern sky and be in the southern sky during noon. On August 16 and April 27, the sun is directly overhead in Bangalore. Between September 22 and March 22, the sun will rise in the southeast, be due south at noon, and set in the southwest. Once again between March 22 and April 27, the sun will rise and set in the northern sky being in the southern sky at noon. I just had to post this since I know all my friends will be missing my random weather and solar position talks so much.
