Sunrise across Kajiado County

A sunrise figure calculated for Kajiado town is not necessarily exact for Ngong, Kitengela or Namanga. Their different coordinates produce small differences, and the correct value changes with the calendar.

Local relief also affects observation. Hills may block the eastern horizon, while buildings can delay the first visible sunlight in built-up areas. Such effects do not change astronomical sunrise or the UTC+3 civil offset.

Choose the nearest listed centre. Read the value for the required date. Check whether early daylight or direct sunlight is needed. Allow for terrain, structures and cloud in practical plans.
