I can see the sun setting (on clear days) now in Fairbanks AK Golden heart webcam. The sunrise/set direction is moving northwards as the sun declination moves up north.
Solar noon : 12:21 pm, angle 89.5° (northern Pekanbaru) - 89.7° (southern Pekanbaru)
Tomorrow at around 12:21 pm local time is the no-shadow solar noon (exactly no shadow in central Pekanbaru 0.5°N)
It always feels better and more "right" when the first late afternoon/evening after putting the clocks forward is sunny so the brighter evenings are more noticeable. That's probably not going to happen tomorrow, but light until 8 pm is still very welcome. As for the sunrise times, I pretty much gave up noticing them once they went back before about 7.30 am.

What about when the sunrise earlier than about 5am? Will you start noticing them again? It will be around late May. less than 2 months from now. I thought you liked the extremes of sunrise/set times?

I certainly do like the two extremes of daylight and wish the difference between winter and summer here was a bit bigger, but I'm almost never awake early enough to take much notice of the sunrises apart from in winter when I have to get up in the dark.
It seems more strange to see blue in the sky at 3 or 4 in the morning in midsummer than at 10 or 11 in the evening, but that's because I'd only normally be awake to see it about two or three times a year.
Civil twilight lasts until 20:38, evenings are now officially light and soon enough darkness will be a distant memory.
