In the watch faster/watch slower graph ...second from the top
The Max and mins are where the solar day is exactly 24 hours
The zeros are where the solar clock and regular clock reach perfect synchronization on all longitudes that are divisible by 15, assuming no DST hour forward
At points where the solar day is less than 24 hours, the solar noon moves earlier and earlier each day, and vice versa for more than 24 hours
The mins and maxes are not the same each time ...that asymmetry is due to the earth distance from the sun being closest during northern hemisphere winter which is not neutral to both hemispheres
Your summer daylength is nothing in comparison to mine. Almost 18 hours!!!
A big chunk of it being wasted when one sleeps for 8-9 hours a day, and in turn compensated by much worsened darkness for September to March. Along with a paler sunshine throughout the year. I repeat, nothing to envy.
Well from today on, astronomical twilight won't end.
Lasted end of Nautical twilight will be on at 00:30 around summer solstice
and earliest begin about 02:25.

Clearly rife with jealously with them roll eyes. I mean who wouldn't want 18 hours of daylight.
Tomorrow is expected to be sunny with a max of 37C. It's a good news since i will do the scouts' camping Thu - Sat
For tomorrow

No kidding, who wants it do be light out when going to sleep? I sure don't.
I actually enjoy 24-hr daylight. No problem sleeping, and it's so practical to get rid of the darkness outside. But then, I have lived for many years where there are no night in summer, so I am used to it.
The light at night in the summers north of 62 N are so...soft, with that very low sun/sun just below the horizon hour after hour.
Btw September and March in the very northern latitudes have the same daylight as more southern latitudes (September slightly more, March slightly less).
