Lusaka is located at 15.39°S, 28.32°E. Its latitude determines how dramatically daylight hours change through the year.
The city uses the Africa/Lusaka timezone (GMT+2). It does not observe Daylight Saving Time, so solar times shift gradually through the year without abrupt clock changes.
Solar noon — the moment the sun reaches its highest point in the sky — occurs when the sun crosses the local meridian. In Lusaka this falls around 12:05 in mid-summer and 11:57 in December, reflecting UTC offset and any DST adjustments.
