Atlanta’s Final 8 p.m. Sunset of the Year Happens This Tuesday

Atlanta’s Final 8 p.m. Sunset of the Year Happens This Tuesday

Residents of Atlanta, get ready to say goodbye to long summer evenings. This week marks the last 8 p.m. sunset until next year. According to meteorologists, Tuesday’s sunset is set to occur at exactly 8 p.m., but by Wednesday, we will already see a slight shift with the sunset happening at around 7:58 p.m.

After Wednesday, the next time we will experience an 8 p.m. sunset or later won’t be until April 4, 2025. This gradual shift in sunset times signifies the impending change of seasons.

End of Summer Is Near

The official end of summer is quickly approaching. September 22 marks the transition from summer to fall. As we move further into September and October, the sunsets will start occurring in the 7 p.m. or even 6 p.m. hour.

Daylight Saving Time

Once daylight saving time ends on November 3, the clocks will fall back, and we will be operating on standard time until March 9, 2025. During this period, the sun will set as early as the 5 p.m. hour.

While many might miss the late sunsets, this is all part of the natural cycle. As one season ends, another begins, bringing with it its own unique beauty and charm.

Weather Update

In terms of weather, Tuesday is forecasted to have more clouds than sunshine across the city. It’s always good to keep an eye on the weather as the seasons change. A mix of cloud cover can often add to the beauty of sunsets, even if they are happening a bit earlier than we’re used to.

Prepare for Shorter Days

As we transition into this new schedule of earlier sunsets, you might want to plan your outdoor activities accordingly. Evening jogs, family walks, or any outdoor events can be adjusted to make the most of the daylight hours that we have left.

Looking Ahead

While the earlier sunset might be an adjustment, it also brings the excitement of seasonal changes. The fall foliage, cooler temperatures, and cozy evenings can be something to look forward to. A new rhythm of life emerges with the earlier setting sun, offering a different kind of daily routine that many find comforting.

In summary, as Atlanta prepares to say goodbye to late sunsets, it’s a good time to embrace the upcoming changes of fall and winter. Each season has its own charm and unique aspects to appreciate. Make the most of these final late sunsets this week before we go back to shorter days and longer nights.
