Sunrise: 8:25

7 hours, 23 minutes

I suppose this is the darkest day I've ever seen, since I've never been anywhere further north at this time of year.

If I went due north from here at 54N 2W this is what I'd get. It's interesting to see how once you get to the real subarctic latitudes though the length of the day starts to shorten quite rapidly for each extra degree of latitude you go, the length of the actual night doesn't change anywhere nearly as much due to extended twilight.
