Sunrise and sunset in Seattle




Sunrise: 5:11 am; Sunset: 9:11 pm.  The longest day of the year.  In Seattle, you can start hearing birds chirping at around 3:15 and within half an hour you see first light.  Sunset is officially just after nine, but you can still see daylight to the north until after 10:00.  It's summer! Excelsior!
