How many minutes of daylight are gained per day from Dec to June 21 in Victoria bc Canada?

Answer 1

The number of seconds or minutes gained per day is different for every date, and for every latitude. It runs in a sinusoidal curve; starting from a trough on December 21, the day length begins to CREEP up slowly, day by day, a few seconds, then many seconds, then an additional minute each day. By March 21, the equinox, the Alberta BC days are getting rapidly longer; 4 minutes each day! Then the pace of increase slows, until mid June when the days are getting only seconds longer each day until June 21, when the cycle peaks and begins to fall.

Answer 2

In Victoria, BC, Canada, the amount of daylight gained per day from December to June 21 varies. On December 21 (winter solstice), the days start to get longer, with approximately 1-2 minutes of additional daylight gained per day. By June 21 (summer solstice), Victoria experiences its longest day of the year with the most daylight.
