The 16hour and 45minute Day in Amsterdam
June 21st, 2019.
– Seattle is at 47°36′35″N
– Amsterdam is at 52°22′N
Calculating this shows me a difference in latitude of 529 km (328.705 miles).
Today, on June 21st, the day is 45 minutes longer in Amsterdam versus Seattle:
– In Seattle, sunrise is at 5:07am and sunset is at 21:10 (9:10pm) = 16 hours and 3 minutes
– In Amsterdam, sunrise is at 5:18am and sunset is at 22:06 (10:06pm) = 16 hours and 48 minutes
So there are some fun facts to ponder. Mostly I notice how light it still is at 10pm!

Interesting. I should look up Richville, MN But, we are not having much sunshine anyway. The sun does come up way into North East. Have you looked up Wasila, AK?
