The Blue Nile and the White Nile meet at Khartoum, and the confluence is visible as a line of two colours. The Blue Nile supplies roughly 80% of the combined river's water during flood season, despite being the shorter of the two.
The clock: Khartoum keeps UTC+2. Sudan has more pyramids than Egypt — around 200 at Meroë alone — though they are smaller and far less visited.
Khartoum lies at 32.6°E. Its time zone, UTC+2, is built around the 30°E meridian. The 2.6° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 10 minutes behind the sun: solar noon arrives at about 11:50 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC+2 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 13h 3m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 11h 12m. The swing between them is 1h 51m. Inside the tropics the day length stays within a narrow band all year.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Khartoum the sun comes up earliest on 4 June at 05:18, while the latest sunset waits until 10 July at 18:25. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Khartoum that civil twilight runs about 21 minutes at the equinox.
Every figure in this section is computed from the city's own latitude, longitude and IANA time zone using NOAA solar algorithms (Spencer, 1971), accurate to about ±2 arcminutes below 65° latitude.
