How to read it
Lake Ontario shapes Toronto's weather. It cools the waterfront on spring afternoons, and in winter cold wind off the open water can feed bands of lake-effect snow that bury one side of the city and leave the other clear. Summer storms cross from southwestern Ontario, and from the Toronto Islands the skyline catches the evening light across the harbor.
Toronto's longest day, around June 21, has 15 hours 27 minutes of daylight, and its shortest, around December 21, has 8 hours 56 minutes.
Sunset in Toronto comes earliest around December 7, at about 16:40, and latest around June 25, at about 21:03. That earliest sunset comes about 14 days before Toronto's shortest day, because the Sun's noon drifts against the clock through the year. Toronto's clocks change twice a year, so its sunset jumps by an hour on each of those days.
Toronto's evening golden hour, the Sun from 6° up to 4° below the horizon, lasts about 55 minutes around the equinoxes; at midsummer about 65 minutes.
