How these times are calculated
Times are computed for Miami (25.76° N, 80.19° W) with the NOAA solar-position algorithm, for a flat horizon, in local time (America/New York). They are usually within a minute of published tables. Hills, buildings and weather can hide the sun a few minutes earlier than shown.
